Well, I think we have the answer in tiny holes, it’s all it can be other than the supernatural (I may come back as a homebrew drinking ghost myself). The reason I use plastic bottles (a recent idea for me) is that I worry about using glass in the heat out here and not being able to keep the brew...

Thanks for the input folks. I’m using Coopers 500ml bottles so it could be the microscopic holes. Will mark the bottles affected and see what happens if/when I reuse them. All my years in physics and engineering I’ve seen nothing like it.

Honestly, nothing but gas ... drinking one of the full ones now though! As for kids, beer is in locked cellar and no other beer affected. Mind you, top tip for thieving kids (as happened to me many years ago) bottle some flavoured water mixed with Epsom salts... they nicked it and drank it and...

Hi all, just thought I’d share an experience and see if anything similar has happened to other members. I bottled Triple Tykes Export back in mid May and, along with various other beers, have been slowly working through the 46 odd bottles. I used 500ml PET bottles for this brew. Yesterday I...

I reckon, possibly wrongly (I'm still learning too), that it tastes acidic due to the initial high temperature and the different alcohol being produced. I'm sure someone out there knows better. You may well find you have a big of a sore head in the morning after a couple of pints! Otherwise, it...

You could keep it in fridge if it'll fit or just find the coolest place you can (remember, people have been drinking warm Ale for years ... not saying you should but ....) Alternatively, pour some off into a carbonated drinks bottle or two (clean obviously) seal and store in a fridge for an...

No need to add CO2 at this stage as the priming sugar should carbonate it nicely. As you get towards the end of the barrel, however, CO2 can be used to top up and maintain pressure rather than it taking half an hour to draw off a pint. You see, as you draw off beer the pressure initially is high...

In my , very, humble opinion ... just do a couple of days with hops and then stick in in a scatter of bottles or a keg. Give it a week in a warm place (not your 35 degree summerhouse!) then a week in a cool place ... and then try some. One of two things will occur .... 1. Beer is great, you are...

Looks like it's had a very vigorous fermentation. May have got a bit warm and caused the yeast to be highly active. Don't think it will be too much of a problem as the CO2 in the FV should keep any nasty stuff out. As long as you've reseated the fermentation lock and taken a look at the...
