Welcome Alex. What sort of stuff are you making at the mo and what would you brew if you could?Hello, my names Alex from Manchester, quite new to brewing, getting some good results but want to improve, mainly modifying kits but want to get into the boil etc. looking forward to good chats
Cheers, I’m making kits at the moment, I’ve got a cheap Wilco’s IPA kit on and dry hopping with 50g of Citra, also added 300g of honey to the kit to raise it up a tad. I’m putting another IPA on called Full Sail from love brewing going on Wednesday, both in king kegs. I really want to start from scratch with boiling, that’s what I want to be doing.Welcome Alex.

I've just bottled a Wilko IPA kit, added some leftover Centennial at 80°C to use it up, and lightly dry hopped with 20g Citra and 20g Simcoe. Bottled yesterday it seems promising, tasted low on the ABV since I only had half the spraymalt needed to make up the gravity, but not too bothered about that. Cold crashed outside for a few days and it's pretty clear alreadyCheers, I’m making kits at the moment, I’ve got a cheap Wilco’s IPA kit on and dry hopping with 50g of Citra, also added 300g of honey to the kit to raise it up a tad.

Is it the hoppy IPA? I’ve used it a few times it’s great with some hops added, I had a a cheeky taste as I barrelled it and tastes great, primed it and crashing now, I like to leave it a good few weeks for the flavour develop. I’ve never used spraymalt, what are the benefits?I've just bottled a Wilko IPA kit, added some leftover Centennial at 80°C to use it up, and lightly dry hopped with 20g Citra and 20g Simcoe.

Ah, no it was this one which needed the spraymalt to get to the stated ABV. The spraymalt is malt extract so adds gravity points as well as body.Is it the hoppy IPA?
