    Serving from a corny

    Hi all I’ve brewed some beers and carbed in kegs. Stored in the kegorator hooked up to the gas. At Christmas I want to bring the kegs into the house. If I disconnect from the gas to bring them into the house and use a picnic tap will they still pour? Or do I need to keep them connected to the...

    All grain advice.

    Hi I brewed a kit on Sunday. Did an overnight chill and pitched the yeast at 23c. Into the fermenter fridge at 20c. There doesn’t seem to be much life. Looks like something is forming on the surface but no bubbles. Should I be worried? Give it a stir or just hold tight?

    Topping up the fermenter

    I finished a brew and I have boiled off way more than I thought I would. Can I top it up with boiled water?

    MasterBuilt 800

    Hello, I was wondering if anyone had one of these and what they thought of them? I am tempted to get I am tempted with the MB 800 but this lovely weather is unknown in South Wales for 11 months of the year! I use a weber kettle for smoking/BBQ and want to upgrade to something more...

    BBQ thoughts....

    I am incredibly keen to see how this pans out 🤤 I’ve got a week off so I’ll be firing up my kettle each night next week if this legendary Swansea rain disappears! I’ve gotta a paella planned, made jerk paste last night for jerk chicken, gotta have cheese burgers and picking up some ribs too.

    BBQ thoughts....

    Gas is more convenient but mine died and I picked up a Weber kettle a couple of years ago after seeing one of their demos at grillstock. I fired up the kettle yesterday and had a turkey breast seasoned with meat church lemon pepper and wrapped in streaky bacon. Skirt steak and a few burgers...

    Dark Rock Session Series West Coast Pale Ale review

    I poured my first pint over the weekend. Absolutely delicious. Would definitely recommend having one of these kits in the cupboard if you’re short on time to bash out a part or full grain. Looking forward to the weekend for a few more.

    1st ever brew.

    Give a few months and you’ll be having kit delivered to you parents or friends house so your partner doesn't see how much you’re spending.

    Restart a fermentation?

    What have you been smoking on bbq?

    Wow. I love short rib. I didn’t realise Morrisons stocked them. I’ve picked up their ox cheek and smoked them and they’re good for skirt steak too.

    Restart a fermentation?

    Hi, I brewed a kit and popped it into the fermentation fridge but being a klutz I didn’t close the door. Temp has drop after a few days and fermentation has stopped. What can I do to rescue this? raise temp and give it a stir? Raise temp and add another sachet of yeast? thanks.
