Hanging around in Paris waiting for my train - and the journey back itself - gave me plenty of reading time on Thursday. Enough to rattle through a whole stack or articles from the Journal of the Institute of Brewing. Ones from about 1900.
There was so much fascinating stuff that I can't decide what to post about first. This is where you come in. You decide for me. I suppose not so much democracy as indecision in action.
Here's a list of topics, tell me which you'd most like to hear about:
- a history of beer duty
- non-deposit bottled and cask beers
- modern mashing operations
- colour measurement
- coloured malts
- the use of flaked malts
- arsenic in beer
Go on. You decide. I can't be arsed.

Beer duty please.
Arsenic in beer for me! Had our H&S guy telling us a story about a poisoning case a century or so ago just the other day!

Non-deposit bottled and cask beer discussion, which might throw light on palate considerations as perceived then. Was post-fermentation yeast regarded as an aesthetic nuisance? As something that could further mature beer, or add (take away) flavour, etc.?

Coloured malts!
Coloured malts and arsenic in beer (!)
Arsenic in Beer. Especially if it's from the French point of view.
"non-deposit bottled and cask beers"
Sounds innovative to me.
coloured malts
Non-deposit bottled and cask beers sounds interesting.
modern mashing
I'm thinking coloured malts.
Modern mashing operations, please!
Modern mashing, please.
colour measurement pls
Beer duty history,please.
Colored malts and flaked malts (flaked grains??). I have never heard of flaked malts before only flaked grains (flaked barley, flaked corn, flaked rice ect), should be interesting. Being a professional brewer I am interested in grists, of which you have been very generous with your research.
ooh - they all sound so exciting ;-)
My top three would have to be
- a history of beer duty
- non-deposit bottled and cask beers
- colour measurement
Beer duty, please Ron
