Right, nothing goes to plan does it, however i now have the following supplies, all i could bloody get due to demand and some bits i had already... help! Northern brewer Fuggles Styrian goldings bobek Target Chinook Citra Kent goldings. 6kg Lager crushed malt 1kg low col rye crushed malt 750g...

Got the bag of mulicolouted sharpies right here! Maybe time to break out the pastel shades!

Im gonna have a trial boil this weekend and test the volume then as well. Im assuming the volume markers are junk as is the thermostat but if it works it works!

Ive heard the thermostat is unreliable, im gonna dip a thermocouple and see what i get. It is 110 yeah, thats what caught my eye.

Well the boiler/urn has arrived. A few pictures for you. Just need so fi d some base malt and ill have an attempt. Is anywhere still selling it?

ill get one and see where i get to, smaller batches are probably better for me anyway. i assumed id have to determine the temperatures it achieved myself, ill grab the UKAS probe at work and have one hell of an accurately brewed beer lol!

In the past ive done 23 litre batches or whatever the coopers kit says. Ive no problem knocking it down a bit. But in essence this should be a good bit of kit yeah?

Hi guys. Im thinking about getting into AG brewing but i have no kit currently. Can anyone see any problems with this bit of kit for everything upto the fermentation statge...

Can anyone poiny out an issue eith tjis bit of kit...

Ah im an electrical engineer so im going to modify it for my needs. If i get it anyway!

I thought that was the case. I do like a nice bitter burnt porter but not too many of them for sure. 👍

Looks good! What software do you use? Sounds useful! Im looking at a teaurn at the moment so a 23 litre batch may be possible! L God i need more beer bottles too! Glad i still have my job in the current climate or i have to put this off till the winter!

No its good! As ive not done this before any knowledge is good! I'll just get the old slide rule out and convert that to celcius 😂. What would i use the black malt for then? Knowones mentioning that one

I have no opinion on what hops are used if im honest. Youd think as i actuary work for Lovibond I'd know a bit more about all this! Kent goldings 5.4% Chinook 13.4% Citra 12.7% Norther brewer 7% Styrian goldings 4.4% Fuggles 5% Target 12.5%

Stout or porter to start with. Definitely want yo try and make a Shipyard APA clone as well. But stout/porter as i have the kit! I'll look him up in a sec
