Hi I have 5 corny kegs for sale, based in leicester. Ideally i would like them gone as a job lot collected but could potentially quote for postage. Been out of it a while so i need to trawl ebay for the prices these go for unless someone makes me a sensible offer! Muchos gracias! Met.

Oooof that looks fantastic! Its casked now so im leaving it a week then it'll be good to go through the hand pull. If any of my mates want to try it I may hand pull some in a bottle to be consumed within a day or 2, but other than that its going to be on for 3 days.

Just checked the FG after 2 weeks in the primary and its down to about 1008! (The 1010 line was definitely below the beer line). At worst case this is going to be a 5.5% beer! :D

1052-1054 t 15.5C. Lets see if it warms up and what it comes down to. Should be 1013ish. I wont have a chance to look at it until the 1st so ill just give it 8 days to do what it likes and ill measure the FG, cask it straight away most likely.

I do, the first few brews I did at 75% efficiency all came out low, so I have adjusted my brew to 65% efficiency and work from there.

Just thought I would do a really simple brew when I got home from work tonight. Beer is set to be 5% Marris otter: 5.691kg Challenger: 50g 60min Challenger: 20g 10 min Falconer's Flight pellet: 20gish (just threw some in with the challenger) 10min Profaloc tablet to finish. Ferment will be...

Thats pretty much it, always have the camera in case of this. When you tell people you have been in a crash and you were on a motorbike they instantly assume you were speeding or driving dangerously.

She did get out to see if I was OK. She was very worried and even called me yesterday to see how I was doing. She admitted full liability to the plod and its all on video. I like to think im a sensible rider especially within towns, this just couldn't be helped. New motorcycles have to have...

Wooooooohooooooo. Yes thats right, riding through a 30 limit a 1/4mile from home and some lady decided to do a U turn and swipe me straight up. Im OK apart from bruised hip and dented pride. Motorcycle is pretty mashed with a scratched frame and lots of broken plastics. Photos and video...

I fancy doing a brew on sunday, only issue is fermentation is a no-no in the house! I guess my only question is will it be ok if I use a water bath in the garage to keep heat for fermentation? I have 2 fish tank heaters, one 50w and the other 25w. Think that'll be enough for over night?

This is going to be good... :D

Its a a GoPro HD and can be found here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_nos ... ords=gopro Although mine is the first model and I think the only one easily available now is the GoPro HD hero2, however a wicked camera at 200 squids! Its what I paid for mine about a year ago just before v2.0...

tis indeed! Im used to riding down there mainly as I worked there for 2 years about 3 years ago, I just got a bit complacent. Do you go there regularly?/ are you from Leicester?

A lapse of concentration for 1/4 mile and i almost killed myself twice!! A video to make sure you keep concentrated. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmvorL6p1fQ

old ish thread but buy yourself some plastic pins from cypherco. (brewery plastics) I got myself 4 when I started brewing and they are great.

It has a yoshi can on it now so i should really get a photo an update it. That pic is a couple of weeks old.

My first post in a while!! New steed

What type of hop stopper do you use? Tipping the boiler although getting more out still leaves a fair amount in mine. would it be possible to tip the boiler all the way over and use a siv to filter the rest of the beer?

Good tip barnsley brewer! Ill give it a go on my next brew. :mrgreen:

cheers mate good idea! I think I have something like that currently with the hop strainer. I have a piece of copper going into the mesh bag with a right angle at the end facing down.
