Hi all, Looking to move onto the BIAB after numerous kits. Ideally looking to start off with 5 Gallon brews with potential to expand the horizons to 10 Gallons. I was set originally set on a 70 litre stainless boiler as the right size for me, as this caters for the brew size and boil...

Started mine at 1040, finished at 1012, so very pleased with that! I have been following the 2X2X2 rule so far, currently coming to the end of the two weeks warm bottle conditioning, and looking for advice for the two weeks cold. How cold does this need to be stored at? Will leaving in the...

Brilliant, thanks mate!

Out of interest, how did the capper perform? I'm also looking at ordering that exact model. Many thanks, Marcus

Thanks for for the heads up!

Brilliant, thank you mate, will get the Admirals Reserve on tonight :)

Is this the one?

Brilliant thanks guys, just cleaned it out with hot water and a brand new sponge. I will sanitise it and throw another brew in later :)

Actually popping by a Wilco today, will see what they've got. :)

Hi guys, Quick question, does anybody know if the kit Yeats for the Woodford Wherry and Nelsons Revenge are the same? Reason for asking is because I've just done a Wheery but used a third party yeast instead of the kits. Planning today on doing a Nelsons Revenge but this time using the kit...

Hi guys, About to bottle my first batch in an hour, and was planning on doing another kit straight away in the same FV. Should I be using any special products to clean the FV before next use, or will warm water and elbow grease with a new sponge do just fine? I will of course sanitise...

Has anybody tried the Bulldog Brews Yule Brew Cinnamon & Ginger kit? Sounds quiet promising.

As was I aha, great minds think alike! Many thanks in advanced for the recommendations :smile: Marcus

Thanks Chippy, panic over, time to have a brew and a BBQ :thumb:

Hi guys, Started my first beer kit yesterday (Woodford Wherry). I may have accidentally overfilled the airlock (didn't see the max level lines until I looked at my spare lock!). Today I noticed that there is considerably less liquid in my lock, which after some reading I assume is from suck...

This was the very first kit that I tried. I'll be honest it was pretty vile but equally the yeast was out of date. I tried their cider one after, which was better, nothing special but palatable. Although not high in quality, they both got me interested in home brewing which at its core is more...

Thanks for the response :) Plan is still just to use the sugar for carbonation, so in that case I'll just grab some normal brewing sugar. Yeast wise, have you tried SafAle S-04?

Thanks Marlon :) Another thought, I have seen a youngs beer kit enhancer online. My understanding is that you would replace the sugar with this enhancer instead, is that right? Would you use the enhancer in the same way, as in for batch priming? I've seen elsewhere that people have said to add...

Perfect, thanks ! :)

About to do my first Brew, specifically with this kit. Planning to use a bottling bucket and priming solution. Would the method still the same - (2.5g) 1/2 a teaspoon per 500ml bottle? Say for example I had 40 bottles, would I boil 2 cups of water with 100grams of sugar? Reason for asking is...
