    Book recommendations

    Hi all, not sure where to 'park' this post so put it here. No doubt the powers that be will move it if necessary. Whilst having a well earned pint or three at the end of the day, I like to read. Not sure what others do, but thought it might be nice for people to recommend books they have...

    Crusader Kegs for sale.

    As I am no longer brewing in the quantity I used to, I have 2x20 litre Crusader kegs, complete with their sankey couplers for sale. Only used half a dozen times each, so good condition throughout. I find these to be far stronger and more durable than my corny keg. £75 each or £140 for the...

    Fast or what!!

    Brewed up on Saturday (belgian beer SG 1.080). Used the Crossmyloof real ale yeast (all I had!) and it started about 6 hours later. Checked today to find it is at 1.014!! Smeels great, just going to give it a day or two to 'clean up' and then cold crash it. In fairness I think it actually...

    1kg of East Kent Goldings (2016 harvest) for sale.

    Hi all. Due to having to cut back on my brewing somewhat, I have 1kg of East Kent Goldings hops for sale. They have been stored at 1c and kept in their original foil overwrap. I used them for my last brew a month ago, and they are definitely still good! Looking to move them in one lot (to...

    Homebrew twang: is this the answer?

    I have seen many posts and threads concerning homebrew 'twang'. Just going through my bookmarks, I didn't recognise this site (probably the result of a late night, drunken look through home brew shops on tinterweb!), so clicked on it, to find this product being promoted...

    Brewbot temperature controller.

    Just had the ultimate in great service from Mybrewbot! Had lost the email containing the instructions on how to use the profile setting to ramp up and down. Emailed them, and expected a copy of the previous email, but no, Jeremy at Brewbot made and posted a video for me personally, showing me...

    Brew Smarter Gluten Free extract kit review.

    Finished this a couple of weeks ago, just sampled it tonight and WOW! Originally brewed for my wife who is gluten intolerant, I have to say it is by far and away the best extract kit I have done. I usually am an all grain brewer, but I was a bit short on an order for free delivery, so stuck...

    More info on beer labels-a growing trend?

    Picked these up in Waitrose today. Don't normally buy beer, but I noticed that whilst the quantities aren't given (pity), the label does impart more detail than normal. Whilst it is not as detailed as some american beers, at least it is a step in the right direction, and one that I feel should...

    A safe cleaner?

    Morning all! Just wondered if anyone else had used this product to clean (not sanitize/sterilize) their equipment? It is sold as safe for use in hospitals and food safe too, so given its great cleaning power, was wondering if it could be used (and is safe to use) in home brewing. Unfortunately...

    Keg spear seal suppliers

    Evening all. Just wondered if anyone knows where I can get spare seals for the spears on my crusader kegs? Losing gas, and having tightened/replaced everything else, this is the last thing I can think of as to where the gas could be escaping.TIA.

    Co2 Regulater query/problem.

    Hi all. Just put on a new co2 6kg hobbyweld cylinder. I've noticed on both the new and previous cylinders, my regulator does not seem to be working correctly. It almost looks like the new cylinder is empty of gas (which it definitely isn't!) according to the dial;- see photo. When I put a...

    Clearout time!!

    Evening all. Well it's finally got to the point that I HAVE to get rid of some of my more bulky stuff. I can't even get in my shed to brew now, unless I empty most of it out before I start. So for starters I have the following items available. Due to their size, they are for collection (I am...

    Cleaning and passivation

    Afternoon all! Two questions; 1) My grainfather has become rather stained. I have seen that people are using sodium percarbonate to clean their stainless equipment as I do. How long can I safely leave it in for, as the stains seem fairly 'ingrained'? 2) What is the best way to passivate...

    Introduce a friend to home brewing

    Following on from my previous post about getting more female involvement in home brewing, my brain cell decided to stir, and came up with an idea to get a friend to start home brewing. Not exactly a novel idea, many organizations have the 'introduce a friend to....' intiative running, mostly to...
