Hi, brewed to 20 litres with 1kg brewing sugar and supplied yeast. ( SWIMBO was wearing her boltie costume but in light of recent events i have banned her from wearing it again )

Have brewed lager kits made by Coopers, Betterbrew, Black Rock, Simply, Hambleton Bard, EDME, Youngs, Finlandia, Brewferm, Tom Caxton, Art of Brewing, Muntons, Wilkos, Tooheys..............etc Have used brewing sugar or beer kit enhancer. Yet i am sat here tonight drinking a really enjoyable...

I would bottle. Brewed this same kit last year and according to my notes on the 16th August it was down to 1.016 after 9 days brewing, i left it 2 more days then bottled. Very nice brew.

Heres what i do for a batch i know will be travelling. Brew for at least 2 weeks then rack into another FV. Leave for a further week by which time the beer is crystal clear. Primed and bottled into 2 litre pet bottles. Took some recently on a 4 hour plus car journey put them in the caravan on...

Would love to do AG, sadly no space or time. One day. Intend to order some brewing stuff this week so will put a Coopers Real Ale on the list, thanks for that.

I mostly brew lager kits sometimes stouts and bitters. Having tried Black Sheep Ale, and really liking it, i was wondering if there is any way i can tweak a standard beer kit to to taste like it. Failing that are there any available kits that are of a similar type of ale i can buy without...

Thanks guys. Will not rinse then. Let the bottling commence. :D

I`m talking about 2 litre supermarket carbonated water. If i just pour the contents out , rinse , then syphon the beer in am i risking contamination.

Will try that, thank you.

I have a brewed Coopers Heritage Lager in a fermentation bucket, i used 1kg of Muntons beer kit enhancer. Brewed at a steady 20c. Three weeks in fermentation is over but it has twice the amount of sediment i normally get with brewing sugar is this normal ? Sorry cannot quote a SG as i don`t...

I brewed this in December using a Youngs Lager yeast and i cannot praise it highly enough. It was quick to brew and quick to clear. Had a good flavour for a brew that was still young. Will defo brew again in the winter when heat is a problem.

Brewed this kit twice, start dates 15th June and 24th June this year. Left to ferment fully for two weeks. Used Muntons BKE instead of sugar. Stored for over 3 months in bottles in the shed. What a wait. On testing it had a superb head when poured and was really clear but i noticed the...

Thanks very much for the replies my minds at ease now. :D
