    Extract Brewing on kitchen hob - equipment?

    The few extracts I have done call for making the wort to the required amount in the pan, say 10l as an example, per the instructions then simply adding more water to the fermenter. For example like this (http://critanime.wordpress.com/2012/08/ ... r-recipie/). Though if you have the ability to...

    Wilko's Newkie Brown bottled

    From my local homebrew store. The medium, dark probably at a push, would have been enough. But 7 month old baby and lack of sleep meant I got my malts mixed up when I made it. lol. Will wait for it to mature before giving a final evaluation on it. But so far it's looking good.

    Wilko's Newkie Brown bottled

    Ok so the last brew, Coopers Mexican, went horribly wrong (don't ask). So I went onto a tin of Wilko's Newkie Brown that I had spare. Brewed acording to instructions and brewed great. Really crazily strong fermentation. However, DOH!, made a mistake and used a 500g bag of extra dark spray malt...

    Wilko's Own Brand Cerveza.

    This is a nice cheap beer. I made it last year and while it certainly tastes more euro larger than the coopers it certainly was refreshing with some lime and tequila in. :grin:

    risk it for a biscuit?

    The weather is finally starting to get better. Should I risk fermenting a Mexican Lager without a submerged heater?

    work out extract brew.

    I have a recipe for a brew but I have no way of doing it from grain and need to know how much extract I would need to make it work. The grain bill is: 2.2kg 2-row pale malt 2.2kg white wheat malt 570g flaked oats 113g munich malt I am thinking I might get away with simply steeping the oats and...

    a month in...

    thats crazy! I have about 37 litres at the moment in bottles maturing. I am just starting to get to the end of a line of lagres that I did a month or so ago. But some of the stuff I am maturing is hefeweizen so it shouldn't need too much maturing :)

    New pc build

    Better, so much better. Because I own both I can say the pc version plays better. For example because I play flight sim x and own a hotas controller I can actually fly the planes and helicopters. And I am good at it. Where as the Xbox version I crash instantly lol. Especially the helicopter as...

    New pc build

    at 4.2ghz I get 45c-47c at idle and at stock 3.6ghz speed I get 25c-30c. I was looking at noctua but it's a big chunk of heatsink and it also means I can't fit anything other than low profile memory and the H60 just looks sexy lol.

    New pc build

    Very nice build! :thumb: Looks much neater than mine lol. But then again I don't have a perspex plate on the side. I notice your speeds and they are good. I can get my 6100 to 4.2ghz and still be rock solid. 4.5ghz and I notice instability in games like Battlefield 3. I have had it to 4.6 and...

    First Partial Extract Brew

    I love partial extracts. Had good results from them. One thing I want to ask is how the hell you coverted a fridge for fermenting?!?!?

    very watchable....

    I must be one of the few that actually enjoyed it :| From a general movie view it's not bad. I have certainly seen far worse. From an aliens/predator standpoint then yes it's probably one of the weaker films out of the franchise. However what was funny about it was seeing people nerd rage...

    New pc build

    Funnily enough thats how most of my family get their IT issues solved. Except they can't pay me with beer anymore as I supply my own lol. Thing to remember with a computer is that it's a box with electricity running through it. And you make it as complicated as you want it to be.

    Brewferm Xmas Ale Review

    I have been looking at this beer myself. Want to do it but I am in two minds if I should rack to secondary or put in bottles myself. I can see pro's and con's for both.
