So I haven't posted in a while so thought I would update you on how this turned out 1) actually tastes pretty much bang on for a plain Berliner happy with that 2) lemon and lime wasn't great tastes too much like lemon sink cleaner 3) again a bit too much like orange cleaner 4) apple one was...

Hi guys I've sourced an old maxi chiller 110 that for whatever reason dosent have a pump for cold water recirculation. I'm planning on using it for chilling my SS Brewtech fermenter which with the ftss kit comes with a submersible pump which turns on when temp drops below a certain temp in...

Yep all the various fittings etc, it never came in a box

Hi Guys, thought id post my new brewing system for your perusal/ judgement, it has gone through several different phases and set ups but i think unless i add a plate chiller this will be my final layout. Its all in the picture of flows of wort etc The kit has been bought from a combination of...

It fits to the side of the vessel so i dont see why not, say £30 including delivery?

Made the omnipollo raspberry milkshake ipa yesterday! will let you guys know how it turns out!

Thanks for the advice! I've been keeping an eye out for a cheap one of these for a while but as you say people keep asking silly money for a second hand one! Also I'm unfortunately based up in the north of Scotland which makes collecting a little tricky in most instances without crazy round trips!

U got any links for one of these as it sounds exactly what I want but struggling to find it on google for anywhere near that amount!

Recently purchased a 7 gal brewtech chronical fermenter which I love but is an all ache to cool if doing lagers and can't crash cool. Was thinking of getting a glycol chiller or something similar to help unfortunately they all cost a fortune so have been looking at using a maxi chiller - I came...

Hi guys just looking for a bit of advice. I've always used swing top bottles I just prefer the look and feel of them. I've been using them for goin on 18 months with no issues but noticed recently that I need to start replacing the rubber seals. Some of the rubber seals though seem to have...

Have you made any more sage recipes? Going to try a combination of sage beers over the next few weeks as a little experiement! What sort of malt extract did you use?
