    Electric brewing energy costs

    My British Gas smart meters allow me to have free electric between 09:00 and 17:00 on a saturday or sunday. Anyone else taking advantage of this for brewing. I now brew only on a Saturday knowing my electric costs for running my 2.4kw HLT or boiler are free.

    My granddaughter (7) bought me a beer kit at a car boot. It is out of date by about 3 years but it only cost her 5p. Will it be usable with fresh yeast or do I just get another kit to brew so as not to hurt her feelings.:whistle:
