Hi Folks, I have three King Keg Bottom Tap pressure barrels. Had them a few years, they've mostly been brilliant. I'm now finding that with at least one of them, the 8g CO2 bulbs last hardly any time at all. I'll put a new one in, pour a pint and then maybe the next day it's OK, but the day...

Hi all. I've not been brewing much lately, I even bought a Brewzilla about six months ago which I've yet to use. However, I decided to get back into it, make a few kits and then work up to the BZ. I made a basic IPA kit last month which came out fine. This month I tried a Munton's Hazy IPA...

I went to bottle some AG today. I used a recipe that someone kindly shared on here a while back. I've made a few batches now. Found out quite quickly that doing 5 litres turned out better than 10. I think that was due to not being able to get the liquid to cool down sufficiently. I was putting...

Hi folks, I found a basic All Grain recipe on here, got the ingredients, bought a 15L stock pot and away I went. The first (5L) batch was good, perfectly fine and very drinkable beer. So for the second batch, I doubled the ingredients to make 10L. All went well and I managed to fill 27 x...

They clogged the sieve up and I had...

Hi folks, hope you're all keeping well? I started brewing beginning of the year. I've been buying the basic ingredients kits from Wilko. Just started my sixth batch, which is my second Stout. I'm at the 'sick of bottling' stage, so have just bought my second King Keg. However, I only realised...

Hi folks, hope you're all keeping well? I'm on my fourth batch and am thoroughly enjoying the whole process. I have a FV I bought from Wilko and have bottled the first three batches. I now also have a King Keg and intend to bottle a few (to give away and for comparison), but will put most of it...

Hi folks. It's great to be part of this forum, although there's so much going on here, it's an understatement to say it's overwhelming. I'm 55, enjoy a beer and am slowly learning more about the different types and the why's and wherefores to it all. So I've decided that 2021 is the year that...
