3-2-1 clear! Zap! Ok, now I've revived the old thread... jonboymentalhealth, how long was the drink in the keg under pressure? Unfortunately I only have until Saturday when the drink is to be served. Does anyone else know a good amount of time to get a good amount of fizz into a drink? Not so...

[EDIT: For the reference of anyone reading, the size of spanners required for this reg seem to be 1 1/8" and 1/2"]

Ah, I see now! Yes, that will help, thanks! :D

Don't think so, not on the reg. The reg can be seen in this thread.

I think that is my answer, just wanted to be careful, thanks. It's the one where it attaches to the bottle, not the adjust screw fixing bolt thanks though. :D

Hey, it's me again, with about as much of a clue as last time. I've tried to connect the reg to the bottle, which seems fine, but it leaks around the bolt when the gas in switched on. I have a red plastic-like washer in the reg, all parts supplied by Norm of course. Does the bolt need doing up...

Haha. I had no idea that it was a student flat! That's a real missed opportunity there, I have to walk a whole two hundred metres or something as it is :( Man I love that shop. :D Best wishes to your son, A levels were murder!

There's this big smelly ginger guy in the Kelland's fruit and veg shop on Mill Street, could get some apples off of him... :D Don't know how long you've been gone but there's a Tesco in East-the-Water now, and one in place of good ole Brian Fords :( Oh and they've complete overhauled the...

Thanks, I didn't want to go putting force on things until I knew what I was doing! :thumb: [Edit: Norm's sending me the aforementioned thingmajigadoobop.]

Aye, I believe juice (or actually apples ofc) remains the best way! Speaking of which, better go check on the Cheeky Vimto Mk2... :D

Bring some CO2 with you haha. You can shop what the shop is stocking here. [EDIT: Oh yeah, it was posted in the first post! :wha: ]

:shock: I grew up in Northam! Also, I live a few hundred metres from the Plymouth Hop Shop atm. I've bought most of my equipment from there. The prices are great and I love going in there, the main owner man is awesome, really easy to talk to and remembers the brews that I'm doing. I think...

Well, I would assume that CO2 is CO2, because if it wasn't, it wouldn't be CO2. I've heard that some people using welding gas for home brew too. I'm no expert though and I wouldn't bet your life on my guesswork and hearsay :P

He has been bugged. Don't worry, I told him it's your fault. :cheers:

I know that this is an old thread, but for anyone who searches and finds it... I did finish that Magnum Strawberry cider and it was very drinkable. Not very strawberry but it was fine and even some non-cider-drinkers were won around by it! I think my first kit must have just gotten infected or...

Oh, so they will deal with normal people then?

This came with it: I think it's just a splitter for gas. Haven't worked out how to get the piece of pipe out yet.

Hey. I just received this regulator from Norm (highly recommended, check him out on the links page!) and I have a couple of questions (I'm not going to bug Norm, I bug him enough :P). What is this? and Where can I get something or other to attach here and connect it to my gas tube? Also...

Well I'm back after ages... I made the Vimto cider roughly to the spec that I posted on the previous page. I think I probably ended up adding one kilogram of sugar in the end, oh and I also ended up with 6.5L of Vimto. I was away during the time that I planned to stop it from fermenting, so it...

In my experience, milk doesn't mature well...
