    Anyone in South Yorkshire wanting to move into all-grain?

    Hi! Sadly, owing to health issues, I have decided to move out of beer brewing and stick to wine making (SWMBO drinks wine). I want to get rid of my brewing kit, but I'd rather pass it onto another keen brewer rather than try to sell it. I have a three-vessel pumped system with heated mash. If...

    Christmas is being devalued

    Hi! I'm seeing Christmas decorations going up all over the place and friends are posting photos of their Christmas trees. I think that this devalues the holiday - by the time it comes it is a huge anti-climax. It's far too early to begin putting up decs. Please vote to let me know whether I am...

    Marvellous technique for finding lost items

    Fermenting under pressure in a no-chill cube

    Hi! I have been reading about fermenting under pressure in a Corny keg so that the CO2 that is normally expelled from the FV naturally carbonates the beer. It got me to thinking about the no-chill cube that is sitting on the shelf in my brew shed - it's rated to 200 kilopascals (about 29 psi)...

    First bottling failure

    Hi! Owing to various distractions I left a milk stout in the FV at fridge temperature for a couple of months after fermentation was complete. I finally got around to bottling and the results have almost zero carbonation. I believe that I've allowed too much yeast to settle out of suspension. I...
