Hello and welcome :cheers: I will have to give that brewferm bandit kit a go, there is nothing better in the summer than an nice cold desperados :party:

Hello and welcome :cheers: I lived in Hull for a couple of years, but managed to escape lol :party:

Hello and welcome :cheers:

Did you give the bottles two weeks in the warm before so they could carb up before putting them in the cold room? You can leave it in one FV for a a few weeks without any problems (Mine stay in there for 14 days), so you don't really need a glass carbouy. I always tend to brew my kits short so...

If there is froth (thats the krausen) then it is fermenting. Don't be concerned about the airlock, give it a few days and take a gravity reading. if its going down its working :cheers:

Make sure you leave the bottles in the warm for 2 weeks to carb up and then put them out n the cold. They will clear in a couple of weeks. Patience :roll:

PMSL - brilliant :D

Any krausen on it? Then an obvious daft question, did you put the yeast in? :D Give it a bit longer then a gentle stir with a sanitised spoon, if nothing try re-pitching some more yeast :drunk:

Would be better if it was kylie moaning at me :)

All I hear now is lalalalala lalala lalalala lalalala in time with her lips moving lol :)

I have never placed a bet, wouldn't know how to lol, perhaps that's not something a 34 year old bloke should admit to :o

Can't believe I had seen this thread until now, its good to see how people progress and the little tricks and techniques they pass on. Well done it looks great :)

Mine is fermenting away like an express train at the min, massive creamy krausen almost up to the lid in a coopers FV. Smells great, Lee I love the Coopers Stouts but haven't tried a St Peters yet, so I would go or which ever works out cheaper to do again :cool:

Send a barrel to me and I will do some experimenting and see if I can come up with a solution for you, I will do it free of charge as well :p

Looks fantastic, are you enjoying using it as much as building it? :)

My cousin works out there and she loves it, the way of life is much better and the pay is good. She has a young family out there with her and they have some fantastic opportunities. My sister works out in Dubai and its the same there, glorious weather and good wages :)
