Hi I make the MYO American ipa all the time and it’s good, I’ve bottled it and barrelled it 👍 I’ve made the Wherry too and that’s nice but has no dry hops.

I think elvis juice is better with less alcohol !

I bought a can of what I thought was regular Sol when on holiday near Acapulco in Mexico opened it took a big swig & nearly threw up 🤢, it was 2% Abv & infused with tomato & onion dirty ba574rds.

Nice one, those American ipa kits are excellent!

Hi thanks for your comment, I’m not sure what you mean by volumes of C02 ,if you mean priming sugar it half a teaspoon in each 500ml bottle. I made this kit four weeks ago and it’s nice & hoppy from the dry hopping provided in the kit. Might be a bit too much C02 for some peoples liking but I...

I bought an American ipa kit from the range, one of the nicest pints I’ve had for a long time, it’s as good as the Youngs American ipa kit I normally make but £10 cheaper at £14.99 although you need 1kg of dextrose too, they sell that & it’s only £2.49.

1845 a gem of bottled beers shame I can’t seem to find it around here now, it used to be a weekend beer for me, really miss it.

Thanks again for your advice, I’ve just seen that it appears to be going again so hopefully all is good for a few more days, 👍

Thanks for your advice, there’s no activity at the airlock and it was bubbling a couple of times a minute this morning, just seemed a bit strange and I’ve read about this kit stalling at 1020 on this forum.

Hi my Woodfords Wherry has been fermenting for 8 days but has stopped at 1013, has it finished or should I give it a gentle stir. Thanks

Hey I love the satisfaction of bottling, I’ve got around 120 swing tops so 3 different brews some ready, some conditioning, some for my mates and I enjoy popping one open, bottle conditioned for me :onechug:
