Just using different proportions to get different strengths.<br /><br />Party-gyling was very prevalent amongst the London breweries. Most of the brews were party-gyles. The only exceptions are beers that were being brewed in huge volumes, like standard Porter in the first half of the century and X Mild in the second.Ron Pattinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03095189986589865751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-89661653567229742082009-05-10T00:59:00.000-07:002009-05-10T00:59:00.000-07:00Brewers have ALWAYS parti-gyled, to the extent tha...Brewers have ALWAYS parti-gyled, to the extent that each mash was treated separately (first for strong beer, second for weaker beer, third for small beer, each with different hopping regimes depending on how long they were expected to keep) and putting all the mashings in together to make one "entire" brew seems to have been the exception, hence "entire" as an early name for porter.Zythophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07169961035352165436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-38987824500511457072009-05-06T13:01:00.000-07:002009-05-06T13:01:00.000-07:00Of course!

It's a shame that many people seem to think that any ancient craftman was no more than a guesser and a "I will do it this way because we always did it like this..."<br /><br />Celtic Craftmens in ancient Gaul were making a glass of such quality, that when the secret was lost, we didn't reach the same quality until the 18th century!

In the oldest records they still have (from the 1880's) they were party-gyling.Ron Pattinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03095189986589865751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-43591875688526784002009-05-06T04:27:00.000-07:002009-05-06T04:27:00.000-07:00Fascinating to see that Fuller's parti-gyle brewin...Fascinating to see that Fuller's parti-gyle brewing goes back that far.Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13844169940650659196noreply@blogger.com
