If anyone has a spare unused empty sodastream cylinder or two that they no longer use, in good condition, please give me a shout. Will pay postage costs plus your price. Cheers Jon

Here's my curry's essentials compact 1 keg fridge. SWMBO didn't want an outside tap so came up with an interior shelf design.

Found this and wondered if anyone used this model with 2 Corney kegs Mine are the 23cm diameter ones 19ltr.

Looking at this fridge from curry's Anyone used this model for Corney kegs. Looking to fit two 19ltr kegs in if possible. The exterior dimensions are 83.9cm ht x 49.4cm width and depth.

Giving this kit a go shortly, but understand the yeast provided is a bit short on size to Brew down to final gravity. I am thinking of using a replacement, I have got in mangrove Jack's MI5 or Lallemand Nottingham 10g and 11g packets. Also has anyone used an addition of lactose to this kit...

Never brewed Nelsons Revenge so just wondered if anyone else has noticed a change in the name. Just started one off today, and the box says Nelsons Bitter 5% and the photo mentions bitter,but on websites its Nelsons Revenge.

As the title says I am looking for recommendations for a leak free connector for my kegland mk 4 regulator to connect to a sodastream cylinder I have bought 3 so far all have issues with either leaks or dodgy O rings that swell, then cut off the gas to the regulator. So far tried one from co2...

Is it like trying to find unicorn poo or the holy grail. Got 3 replacement s30 valves recently (not the piecing pin type) all miserable fails,different suppliers, different style, all loose pressure. Anyone recommend a supplier and valve that works out the package. Cheers Jon

Just started this kit Gozdawa Belgian Xmas Trappist ale. Single can kit, as per instructions added 0.5 kg Dark candy crystals, 0.5kg Dextrose, 1kg white granulated. SG 1.053 Tasted the wort, very reminiscent of bonfire toffee. 😊 Recommended on the instructions to make yeast up as a starter...

I have read a post somewhere about swapping out S30 valves on pressure barrels for Corney keg gas posts somewhere and can't for the life of me find it. I am looking at adding a gas post onto a 4 inch barrel cap to utilise my sodastream Corney set up. I think for safety I will leave the s30 on...

Got a festival golden Stag brewed to 40 pints getting ready to bottle / keg. Does this sound right way to go about things. Transfer from primary about 18.5 litres into Corney keg, add priming suger in proportion to the 18.5 litres, move to warm for 2 weeks to secondary ferment. The remaining...

Wondered if anyone using this to fill sodastream bottles from a pub size co2 cylinder. I've seen the small brass type put this looks better as you can isolate the gas going in via the lever tap, and also has a pin attachment to work around the sodastream anti fill valve

Hi All Just got an empty sodastream bottle weight is 754 grams - forgot to weigh it when new Anyone know the weight of a new shop bought one ? Thanks Jon

My first kit a Courage Directors is in PB now after priming 2 weeks ago, ready to move to cold. Had a taste last night, nearly clear, good head, tastes bloody lovely 😊 I'm ordering another one today for another barrel. The kit is made up to 36 pints as per instructions, for the next one I'm...

Hi all Spotted these today https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/164347162930 Would it be possible to fit these on pressure barrels rather than s30 posts. I'm thinking of using one gas setup for Corney Kegs and pressure barrels. Obviously I would use a regulator on the gas line. On a kingkeg top maybe...

Recently put a brew into a Rotokeg, which has a schrader valve to measure pressure, and a brand new 4 inch cap My thoughts are the beer is absorbing the co2 in the barrel (carbonisation) so the pressure keeps dropping Here`s my notes 05.11.20 - 9.2 psi 06.11.20 - 7.4 psi - gassed up to 10 psi...

Started of my 3rd Brew last night, a Woodfordes Admirals Reserve. No additions, as the kit says. Pitched the yeast at 9pm and by 7am today bubbling slowly. 😊 Will follow the 2 2 2 rule I have learnt from being here. My two previous extract kit brews currently in secondary ferment in barrels...

As the title says. Cheers Jon

I'm a big fan of Welbeck Abbey a small Brewery in Worksop Notts. They do an excellent pale called Cavendish. The owner an ex chemist PhD from Sheffield Uni got a temp job at Abbeydale Brewery in Sheffield, got hooked on brewing and became the UK 's youngest Brewer. Here's a clip of her, letting...

Hi All After a bit of help Courage directors started on 18th October SG was 1053 Took a reading on 23.10.20 - 1018 Today reading was 1010 - looks pretty close What do you think, instructions say to barrel after 6 days or when gravity below 1014 Leave a couple more days for yeast to drop ?? Had...
