i dont like it too fizzy so il use 90g thanks for the advice

hi tubby i was going to batch prime this at weekend how much sugar do you reccomend? mabye about 110g or more what do you think?

cheers tubby,your pic of the full pint persuaded me to give this a go!

hi tubby,i am going to make this recipe this wknd but me local brew shop only had 1.5kg of light spray malt(which i bought)so i also bought 1kg of dark spray malt will this make much difference to the brew?

cheers guys lets hope for the best! il let you know how it turns out!

Wondering if anyone can help me, i just finished my first brewday (sierra nevada clone extract which i found on this forum) and afterwards realized i had put in too much crystal malt (500g instead of 250g) will this effect the taste? i know its made the beer much darker but im not too bothered...

Any of you guys had any experience of brewuk extract kits, im thinking of buying one (the way to amarillo kit)

thanks for your kind offer but alas i stay in the orkney isles,a bit far to drop off a plastic bin!

thankyou!

is there any chance the fermentig bin would melt near where the elements are installed, its just that my fermenting bins look to be made of quite thin plastic (ones a youngs the other ones a ritchies)

thanks loady!

how high should i drill the hole for the tap from the base of the fv?

i have a small 20ltr empty keg (carling) im thinking of removing the spear and trying to put homebrew in it, would this be a good idea? if so what should i do about carbonation, also could i run the beer through a conventional beer cooler, i have 2 bottles of gas, c02 and 30/70 mix, i have read...

thanks guys i quite fancy the idea of making my own boiler

that looks smart, ill bet thats much cheaper than a burco too
