I did the extract version of this; turned out really well. Have a good one. :cheers:

Not the best brewday it has to be said! Only managed to collect 15l before the hydrometer was reading 1008, so not a great start. Broke my thermometer, so there was a lot of guess work after that pitching yeast etc (seems to be fermenting well this morning though)! Amazingly my hydrometer is...

I tried one of these at a beer festival once-very nice pint.
