That's what I thought! First keg, so pretty excited about not having to wash bottles anymore...

Pulled the trigger and ordered the 19l corny starter set.. What's the estimated delivery time, just out of interest - I don't have a brew on at the minute, so there's not a massive rush.. Also, what exactly is in the starter set? Was going to check but the site showed they were in stock so I...

But.. I'll have a look and see what I do have, as I'll be sorting kit out over the next few weeks..

Unfortunately not... They went almost 12 months ago now...

Absolutely in this one, thanks!

I'm in, to be sure!

Awesome stuff... I'm in it to win it... Quite like the thought of the titanic porter.. And good luck to everyone else who enters...

Coolio. I'm definately in!

I couldn't give you an amount to use, but be careful as its easy to go overboard and end up with something that's pretty medicinal in taste and difficult to correct without blending intk other meads/wines...

Great stuff, thanks.. I'm surprised this hasn't been jumped all over! DM on its way!

I've done the Black Isle brewery a few years ago and did the Meantime tour in Greenwich just before lockdown. Highly recommend both, and got smashed on the Meantime one as the beer flowed copiously as they showed their different styles!

Hey.. That would be great, if no-one else has beaten me to it!

Thanks! I'll DM you shortly!

Sorry... I've just got the notification! Definately still interested, but would be Sunday evening after work before I could get to you to pick up. Fully understand if you need to make space before then or it's already gone...

I'd certainly be interested, and just up the road!

Hahaha.. I was looking at fast running water from the South Tyne, very close to the source. I'm still in 2 minds as I would still drink the water after boiling it, although the slurry and fertiliser issue is nagging at me a touch..

Very good point!

On a visit to Alston this weekend, I've noticed the river water is incredibly soft, but peaty. If I gathered some of this water, would it be an issue in an all grain beer, given it would be boiled for at least an hour? Has anyone tried this, and what flavour could I expect from the peaty...

As a Newcastle fan for over 40 years, it feels like just another bump in the long road to better times. I can't say I'm surprised by the news that Ashley tried to renegotiate more money after the exclusivity deal expired. It's par for the course that he'll milk anything as much as he can.
