cheers! that's a lot of info to try and take in, had to read it several times lol.

I've just ordered the £30 regulator from The Malt Miller, along with various JG fittings. On the day then.....I rack the beer from both fermenters straight into the keg, seal it up and turn on the CO2 at just under 1PSI? will that be carbonated and ready to drink straight away? or does it...

so would you suggest to rack off from the fermenters, straight into the keg, without sugar, once fermentation has finished? I thought the CO2 was used to dispense the beer from the tap, not to actually create the fizz.

Hi All, I just have a quick question around priming/carbonating in kegs. I have been given a 10 Gallon aluminium keg from a brewery, complete with the pickup tube, CO2 canister (but no regulator), Maxi Chiller & Tap. So far I have only ever bottled fizzy beer and stored stouts in bags for my...

I would highly recommend the Grainfather. If you're going to take the leap, please make sure you get the latest model which comes with the new Bluetooth Connect box. You can build your own recipes and save them in the Grainfather app. It makes brew days really straight forward as the GF tells...

Excellent cheers, using a 2nd FV to catch the hot water is a very good idea! I shoved the red hose straight down the sink last night :doh: Just ordered some genuine GF cleaner, I feel like she only deserves the best :lol: It recommends to use 2 Tablespoons mixed with 15L of hot water and pump...

Hi All :) I have recently purchased the new Grainfather and Connect Box. I did my first brew last night and it went really well! Question is, how do people clean their 'all in one' systems. I didn't have any cleaner/steriliser to hand, so I rinsed all the crud off with a hose pipe, then filled...

Done this tonight, but slight tweaks. I replaced the 10g Challenger for 10g Progress (thought I bought Challenger, but got mixed up). And a used Gervin Ale Yeast which I had spare anyway. Ended up with 19L in the fermenter at a potential ABV of 6.9%. So I topped it up to 23L (in the hopes I...

Thanks for the ideas :) I just need to work out mash times, a large volume etc.
