Thanks again for your advice Spapro. I had normal garden hose and jubilee clips for the chiller. The problem was that the jubilee clip just didn't have the strength in it to clamp tight enough. Not being one to give up particularly because I wanted to use it the following morning I eventually...

Hello Spapro. Sods law again! I connected the inlet to the lower input. Please let me know if changing to the upper makes a difference. I had a lot of mucking around getting it to fit without a leak so would rather not change it but will if you say its more efficient. I did add more water to the...

I did resist brewing last night (thanks for the advice Spapro) and spent my time putting hoses on chillers and generally tinkering. I put my boiler on a timer for 7am and when I looked at around 7.40am the temperature was already up to 64C and got to 70C by 8am when I added the grain. All went...

I found it particularly useful to join when I saw I could get the 5% discount code for my order with geterbrewed. This works for them too as I'm sure...
