Hey everyone! Annoyingly my bank holiday brew has had to go on the backburner as my pump (which is imperative to my brewing system to function properly) has a broken o-ring. I'm not sure how it's happened, but probably wear and tear. I also had to dismantle it to fix a blockage recently, so I...

Hey everyone! Been looking into British hops recently and I see Admiral is one of the highest AA British hops and seems to almost have similar descriptors as some of the US/New World hops. I wondered if anyone has used it to success? I'm tempted to try a SMASH with it. Cheers!

Hey all, I'm thinking of upgrading to a new G30 from the S40. The S40 is decent for the money, but the poor mash temperature control is creating havoc with my FG. I wondered what people think of the G30. My main basis for wanting to upgrade is the PID for controlling temperature - apparently...

Hi there, I'm in a bit of a predicament and I'm not sure what to do, so was after some advice. I bought a Grainfather S40 on offer for £350, an upgrade from a Peco boiler. However, having looked into it further, there are some reported downsides: - Can't run the pump during the boil as it...

Hey guys, Just finished listening to this! Some really good info in the interview - worth checking out if you are into West Coast IPAs! Cheers!

Hi there, Selling 2 x 5L SS Mini Kegs. Bought approx. one year ago brand new from GetErBrewed. Also selling a tap with flow control - I can also include the CO2 mini regulator that it came with if the price is right/required. These offer a great, easy and portable alternative to bottling and...

Hi there! I've recently bought a Malt Miller Grade 1 Reconditioned Corny Keg. It says they've cleaned the kegs on their side but does recommend that the customer also clean and sanitise before using. Do you think I need to do a full disassembly? Or will an oxyclean sit, rinse and sanitise do...

Hi everyone! Happy New Year! I bought some 5L SS Minikegs from Geterbrewed early last year - I initially purchased this alongside three 5L kegs: Beer Tap Dispenser Kit 0-60psi for SS Mini Kegs I have switched to ball lock spears so I can do closed transfers from my Fermzilla All Rounder, so...

Hi there, I've just ordered a pump off Aliexpress to hopefully boost my brewing game. Recirculate the mash, whirlpool, maybe get a hopback... But I'm not sure what fittings to get for the tubing. To anyone that has a similar pump, I was wondering what the consensus is. Are hose barbs with clips...

Hi there, I currently have my Christmas NEIPA in the Fermzilla - it has nearly fermented to FG (if not already hit FG). I did a dry hop charge at yeast pitch and the beer is tasting nice and hoppy, but I want to boost it during cold crashing with a further dry hop charge, but I don't want to...

Hey guys, I've recently brewed a NEIPA using the Fermzilla All-Rounder for closed transfers and the like! I kegged it yesterday and pulled the first one, and there's a distinctive chalky aftertaste behind the hoppiness that isn't particularly pleasant (it's drinkable, but I've never tasted this...

Hi there! I have some 5L minikegs I want to convert to the ball lock caps so I can fit them in the fridge. I currently have this complete set up from GetErBrewed - Is there a way I can use the current tap on a ball lock? I wondered if anyone knows the converter I'd need. I emailed GetErBrewed...

Hey guys, So I got sick of bottling and all the faff involved and pulled the trigger on a couple of stainless steel 5L minikegs and a tap/CO2 regulator. I attempted to bottle 10Lish into two kegs and then force prime one by by shaking at 20 PSI. I think I noticed a CO2 leak as a result of a...

Hi there, I'm relatively new to brewing and as it stands, I don't have proper fermentation control. I ferment in a cupboard in my house where the wort is around 24 degrees celsius the majority of the time (might fluctuate down to 22 or up to 26 very occasionally). I've been using US-05 for my...

Hey all! I'm very new to brewing, so thought I'd share my first brew from my own recipe. I've gone for a New England IPA style beer and quite influenced by Brewdog's Hazy Jane: Mash: 25-Minutes Boil: 60-Minutes OG: 1.061 Estimated FG: 1.012 Est. ABV: 6.4% Batch Size: 10 Litres Fermentables...

Hi everyone, Just introducing myself as I received the Punk IPA Brooklyn Brew kit for Christmas and stumbled upon the forum - it's helped me a lot already. I've had one eye on the idea of brewing for ages, but with this complete surprise Christmas present, I now have no excuse! I did the...
