    Mystery Gas Leak

    I've lost a couple of soda stream cannisters due to this. Turned out to be a faulty regulator. I also have to adjust the soda stream adaptor each time I use a new bottle otherwise it leaks

    Recirc Pump Adaptor

    Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction....I have a robobrew on its way to me and having watched plenty of YouTube videos on the all in one systems I've seen a few that have an adaptor that fits on the end of the hose that connects to the recirculation pump that acts abit like a...

    BrewKegTap

    Just ordered the V3 myself. Already have a keg and bits from them and can't fault the customer service or prompt delivery. Even had a faulty regulator which was replaced very quickly

    carbing a corny keg

    I've been in a similar position as you having recently bought a corney keg and other assorted bits. I opted to use a sodastream gas bottle which runs out pretty quickly. But the one beer I've had in the keg so far I ended up force carbing it, had 30psi running through it for an hour or so with a...

    Tasted Too Early?

    It was in the FV for 2 weeks and then bottled. If i leave it for another 2 weeks and its still flat, am i able to dump it into a PB and then use the CO2 to carb it?

    Tasted Too Early?

    That's what I've been aiming for but thought I'd open one to try. I'm hoping it's just too early rather than a wasted 40 pints!

    Tasted Too Early?

    I've had my ale conditioning for nearly 2 weeks (Sunday will be the 2 week mark). I took a test bottle out on Monday night and put it in the fridge and have opened it since getting home from work to taste. It's as flat as flat can be, have I opened it too early or done something far worse...

    Pressure Barrel Beer or Cider?

    Whilst i'm waiting for my ale to condition i'm keen to push on and get another brew going but i want to utilise the pressure barrel i got recently. My question is, would you use a PB for beer only or cider? I don't have a setup to store the PB in a fridge so whatever I do put in there wont...

    Another Newbie

    Thanks for the answers guys, I took a couple more readings late last week and they were the same so after 2 weeks of being like a kid on Christmas Day I bottled yesterday afternoon. It took me 4 hours in the bathroom which beats my previous record of being in there. Managed to get 41 pints...

    Another Newbie

    So I've taken a hydrometer reading today just to check how it's doing and I'm a little confused! Hoping somebody can help shed some light on my findings (excuse the quality of pic).... I'm leaving it for another week before even entertaining introducing it to bottles...

    Another Newbie

    Thanks Larry! I went for the Golden Ale from Wilko, it's nice to know that it's a goer if my patience can hold off

    Sustaining Temperature

    I've spent a fair bit of time looking into this very thing this week, finally settled on the trub suggestion above with a aquarium heater & thermometer. 10 litres of water in there and play about with the temp until you're happy with it. So far it's at a steady 20 degrees and it cost a...

    Another Newbie

    Thanks guys. As It's my first attempt i kept it cheap and grabbed one of the Ale's from Wilko in the hope i wouldn't become too attached if it went belly up. Interestingly the instructions with it (which i know wont be bang on) said to leave it in the FV for 4-6 days and the bottle it for 2...
