I am aware that there are several threads regarding PBs, however I have a couple of specific queries that I'm hoping can be answered here. I have just been given a Pressure Barrel from someone who no longer uses it, so firstly, if I use it for Priming and Drinking straight from the Barrel, I...

Hi guys, looking for a bit of advice, was thinking of buying this water boiler from Amazon, it had temperature dial and a concealed element, would I still need a false bottom, or would it be ok to clip my biab bag over the top as long as it wasn't touching the bottom. Cheers.

https://fass-frisch.com/en/shop/top-keg-5-liter-silberschwarzgrau/ Hi has anyone on here got any knowledge on these kegs. I'm assuming the co2 cylinder is in the top part, is this replaceable? Is there anywhere in the UK that stocks these, as these are from Fass-Frisch which is €20 delivery. So...

Hi guys hope you are keeping safe and well. Looking for a little bit of advice. Now that the warmer weather is here, my brewing area is showing a steady temperature of 23 degrees. I have a large batch of MJ new world strong ale yeast for my next several brews, temperature range of yeast is...

Hi all. Hope this finds you well. Hoping someone on here can help. I am as going to try No chill for my next brew and managed to find a HDPE bottle in my hut that is big enough. Only thing is that it was power washer soap/detergent that was in it before, and there is a slight smell of this in...

Hi there, hope you are all keeping safe in these strange times. I have been looking at trying a no Chill Brewday. Has anyone tried this straight into the fermentation vessel, if so did you just pour it straight in, and did you put the lid and airlock on the fermenter. What kind of results did...

Hi all, for anyone on the Edinburgh area, The Brewstore have a box of bagged hops, that they are selling for 50p a bag or 4 for £1.50, the only thing is they are not 100% sure which hop they are. They think a British hop and probably challenger. Posting just in case anyone wants to grab some.

Hi all, just thought I would post to say that there is a Polish shop near Edinburgh College in Granton, that has Beer crates outside, that I think they would be willing to let anyone take, I have already had 2 from them. The shop is called Stodola.

Hi again. Was thinking of maybe adding some flavour to my next brew. I know you can get Mangrove jack's boosts, but they seem rather expensive for the size of bottle. Does anyone have any recommendations please? Would normal flavouring work? Thanks in advance.

Hi there, looking for a bit of advise. I am thinking of starting to add a portion of a Campden Tablet to my water before starting a brew, to see if I can improve them a bit. I only do 5 litres at a time, and I've read that half a tablet will be enough for up to 23 litres or so. So my question...

Hi all, looking for advice from you all. Done few all grain ready made kits from my LHBS. Looking to try a few Smash beers for my next brews. Been looking across the forum and online for the best Hop to use, seems to be the same coming up but I can't decide which one to buy, my store sells them...

Hi all. I woke up this morning to an overflowing airlock. Think I filled it too much. Didn't have time to sort it then, so just in from work and have cleaned and re-sanitised the airlock. My question is will this brew be ok, looks very cloudy just now will this settle again, still bubbling away...

Hi all thanks for accepting me to the forum. I am new to All grain and have brewed 2 4.5 litre Ales, still condition in bottles at the moment, but both looked and smelled like some kind ale so fingers crossed. For my next batched, I have decided to try and get more brew for my money by buying...
