Hi all Per the thread title due to lack of use owing to a house refurbishment I am taking my breweing equipment out of storage and sadly will be letting it go. I have been a member of this forum for a number of years, I am listing it here first before advertising elsewhere within the next day...

Hi all Hope everyone is okay during lockdown I’m looking around for various rhizomes to start growing my own hops as I’ve gone a bit brew happy since getting a grainfather and going to all grain. Does anyone know of a good source for these that will post within UK? Cheers

Hi all Need some help please as I have a brew day tomorrow morning with a mate, I’m also just about to head out after a days work so have no time to look this up properly myself unfortunately. Having not long ago bought a grainfather my mates bought a couple of AG mash kits from the home brew...

Not sure whether this belongs to anyone on here, couldn’t see any posts. Found this on eBay in case anyone is looking for one, comes with cornie kegs and some other bits. Currently £700 , Hayward’s heath, looks like postage could be possible...

So this seems like a challenge to me as we are now so close. Im wondering if anyone can suggest a brew which can be started this or next weekend, which will actually be drinkable in time for Christmas. All suggestions welcome, could be asking the impossible but I think it would be a bit of...

So as I’m missing an annual beer festival this year (first time) I’ve cracked open a bottle of Sainsbury’s Kentish ale which was bought for me... no home brew for the moment sadly. So what is everyone else drinking? cheers

After watching many videos and reading a lot of posts, I’m really liking the grainfather connect. I’ve also searched the web and found pages which suggest there have been 20% off deals, it’s obviously an expensive piece of kit so my question is given the time of year are there likely to be any...

Just a short post here, has anyone used one of these or know of any in depth reviews I can look at? They’re obviously much cheaper than other options like the braumeister , but I’m wondering why there’s such a huge difference in the price. From what I can see there aren’t enough differences in...

As per title I’m looking for one of these to use alongside an induction heater, I figured it was the safer option rather than dreaming about a braumeister , aside the massive cost saving I also thought it’s better to have something I can buy replacements for and upgrade, rather...

Pretty much as per the title, since I have at last managed to get back on the forums after a very long break, I thought I’d have a read though some posts while I try to make up my mind what to order online homebrew wise. So it may be a school night, but I’ve a bottle of Guinness...

Hi all, I just wanted to stop by and say a quick hello, I’ve been out of the brewing scene for a number of years while focusing on other things. The time has at last come where I’m looking to get back to brewing, I will be upgrading/replacing my equipment over the next week or so...

Just a quick hello to old and new members, I have had some time away from brewing in general, but believe I will be back on it by the end of the year - I actually have a demijohn full of pear wine from fruit that needs bottling, 3 conrnies that are full, and several crates of various bottles...

I bottled up my second all grain nearly two weeks ago, and have left it in my fermentation chamber at 20c, primed 500ml bottles with half a teaspoon brewing sugar. I forgot to check keynotes before posting this, but I had left it a couple of months before bottling. As this is only my second...

Well I started this last weekend, used around 5lb pears, 3lb sugar, bit of nutrient and citric acid and a packed of out of date Muntons yeast, I think it was _GV3, but will check later. Description said for all sparkling and high alcohol white wines. Diced pears, bought to the boil in a gallon...

Hello all, original link for the recipe I used (should be) at the bottom of this post. Long story short I made this several weeks ago, but during the mash, the temp dropped several degrees within a few minutes. As I was going biab, I thought I'd stick the burco heater on 'low' to try to...

Hello all, Well I have a few days off of work now, and made my first all grain back in December last year. With everything that has been going on since, I have not had a chance to get around to doing my next batch, I now plan to do this over the next few days along with converting my fridge...

As per title, and sorry if this is in the wrong section.... I'm just making the most of the sun while working through some of Belgian beers I got for Christmas. Just drinking a wheat beer, never had one before.. not sure if all taste the same or if this is just a particularly good one...

Not a massive gamer anymore, as I have had other things keeping me busy for the past few years, but I just bought myself a Sega megadrive so I can see this changing some time soon! I was wondering if anyone here has ever used the flash carts you can buy, specifically the everdrive ? I was...

Im just about to puchase some new beer and gas line, having bought some dalex taps. I was going to change to barbed connections before, but I am now going to stick with the JG fittings. I am looking for some flexible gas line, as I dont like ths rigid stuff I have as its hard to fit in the...

Well today I came home to find I had four new dalex taps, 2 standard, one with a sparker and the fourth with flow control. I thought id give them a quick go to see what they are like, result of this in one word....fantastic, so much better than my chrome tap that fits direct to the keg. No...
