I'm currently taking a total break from alcohol.Might be permanent- Long story short I was asking myself questions about whether I was drinking too much for a long time, and continued drinking too much. It's got that I don't trust myself to just have one or even four drinks, my "off switch" is...

Ok. Just got 60 330ml bottles all bagged up ready to go. Mostly uniform size. Plenty of pint bottles too.want them?

Wow! I will have a look, I've got about 60 out at a mates. Are pint bottles any use?

How many do you want? All brown bottles- all 26mm caps.

Too many bottles- if anyone can use them contact me with what you fancy- will deliver if not too far. Give me an idea of the sizes and quantities you want. 330ml Various types of pint bottles 660ml (Innis and gunn) 750ml (Leffe) - NOTE 29mm caps on Leffe bottles.

Ive just bottled my third kit of this stuff. Its already gased up a decent amount since bottling on Wednesday (I usually fill a few brown PET bottles-I do a unscientific squeeze test to see if bottle is hard) I'd advise caution when drinking this brew- very drinkable but damn near special brew...

Now that's a shame- going to a gig that night, otherwise I'd have come along. I live in Bury. Id definitely be up for going to the second meeting!

This sounds very appealing!

It's a 30 litre kettle with an electric element and an adjustable temp control. I have tried to put a link to it below, hopefully this works...

I have about 10 extract brews under my belt now, and definitely fancy trying all grain, I like IPAs and lagers. Due to lack of space BIAB seems the way to go for me, I know I can try this out using a big arsed pan and my kitchen hob but Id have to buy such a pan and a suitable thermometer...

I started it on Saturday afternoon and it wasn't so hot then.

Hi- on my fourth kit, so fairly new to this. Got a muntons gold IPA on the go, started Saturday. no temperature control, I figured well insulated house would mean less fluctuations. WRONG! 28 degrees right now.my understanding is it might end up with off tastes. It's bubbling nicely. Think...

Innis and gunn 660ml is £1. 49 in Tesco at the moment. It's a good size bottle to reuse and leave the sediment behind and fill a pint glass. Also the label peels off really nice.

Thanks! I'm going to struggle to find a colder place, maybe the kitchen...my FV has a tap and the shop i got it from told me this was a decent way of minimising sediment. Tap is about an inch up from the bottom.

Thanks everyone! My wilko kit still bubbling away and according to the instructions going to be finished in next two days or so. My plan is to not rush into bottling, I gather theres no harm done to leave it sitting a few days after primary fermentation done. I'd rather wait till next weekend...

Just joined this tonight, got my kit started last night. ( Wilko Cerveza) - wanted something cheap that matures reasonably quickly for my first stab at hombrew since impoverished student dabbles with it some twenty years ago. I'm sure I'm going to have loads of dumb questions before very long so...
