    Forum Raffle

    I agree that most on this forum would trust you with the random number generator (me included). However, I have done this sort of thing many times at work, sweepstakes, football predictions etc. If you, the organisor, wins, there is always someone who pipes up with 'fix'. I assume you will be...

    Forum Raffle

    I like the idea of using the national lottery to pick the raffle numbers as there can be no arguments about it being a random draw. Maybe each entrant picks a 6 digit number and the first 6 numbers to come up on the selceted national lottery draw will detemine who wins. So if '43' is the first...

    Splitting a 1 can kit

    I have a Coopers stout that I am going to split into four 5L bottles for secondary and add different flavours to each coffee, chocolate and vanilla. Can't decide what I wanted to do so thought why not try them all :)

    Splitting a 1 can kit

    I split a Coopers IPA because I wanted to try it with 2 different hops. Made it all up in one FV and transfered half to another FV. Then added a hop tea to each and half the kit yeast to each. Came out fine.

    Coopers Original Stout Review

    I am going to start one of these in a couple weeks. I have brewed a Wilko stout which was ok but I got a bit bored with it so I want to experiment a bit with this. So I am thinking of brewing with 1kg DME, 250g treacle to 21 litres. I have 4 five litre water bottles that I have been brewing wine...

    Supermarket Juice Wine How To guide and Recipes.

    Hi, I just bought this for my wows as it should be cheaper than buying individual sachets. However, the box says use within a month of opening! Is this unusable after a month or so because I was hoping it would last a lot longer. I'm only making about 2 - 3 gallons per month.

    Is this beer ok?

    Cheers guys, bottled it and wasn't as bad as it looked. I think most of the stuff floating in the beer was in the top inch or 2. As I syphoned it was pretty clear and looks fine in the bottles. Looking forward to trying it now in a few weeks. Thanks again for the advice.

    Storing beer in shed problem

Poured myself one and it looks and tastes fine so I dont think the mould is...

    Malt Extract

    Hi, I have a Coopers Bitter Kit and was thinking of putting a jar of the H&B malt in with it. What hops would you suggest would go with this? I have never used any before as I am very new to this so something simple to start me off would be good. Thanks
