E M U BREWERY Ltd : BEERS IN 1913

 How Do All ,

During my time away from blogging I`ve been able to increase my knowledge of both techniques and ingredients in historic brewing records and notes ; including their interpretation and conversion .

As with all blog posts where others contribute source materials and guest posts ; 
 I`m happy to credit Hai Pham over in Perth  W . A ,  for the effort he made in photographing the original brewing records in  The State Library of Western Australia`s Archieval Collections @ Emu Brewery Ltd ,
     Recipe Books, Cat No : MN 747 ACC 2834A/5 = 26.05.1913 - 16.02.1916                        
Cheers Hai , your efforts are very much appreciated .

I hope you`ve enjoyed this brief post ;

I`ll be posting more tables like this, brewery histories and even some new , Nice and reasonably accurate improved home brew recipies  for between 25 - 26.5 L of Beer to Draught Container / Bottling C . V ;  On that note , the recipies are designed for those Home Brewers who have a Minimum 3 Vessel set up , IE A Hot Liquor Tank, Mash Tun and Copper / Boiler and whilst I understand that Unitary base I  process home brew systems are available ; and deservedly popular for their ease of use , there are I believe some specific points in the manufacturing process re accurate reproduction of Old Beers ; that are I strongly believe ,  Key to a bearing point  relative to a more accurately reproduced historically authentic beer .

 Cheers All , I look forward to hearing from you ,
