    Afternoon All. 12litef Cornys

    Anybody know of any shops with offers on 12liter Corny Kegs? Or if you want to go big I'm happy to swap a 19 for a 12litre. ATB. aamcle

    Narrow kegs?

    I may have the chance to get a small chest freezer I could convert to a kegorator for my two Cornie kegs. (21.3 cm dia) Unfortunately the compressor is in the way and I can only get one keginto it, it's just a little two small to fit both. What's available with a smaller diameter? I'd be...

    Not drinking enough!

    I usualy brew AG but I have not been drinking fast enough and small AG batches seem a lot of work per bottle. I bottle 90+% of what I brew. I don't mind pimping a kit, Hops/Yeast and so on but I want a quality product with no kit twang. Are there any kits (tins, pouches) that will make...

    Fridge or Freezer for Cornies?

    My chest freezer has died so I need to replace it. If I get another chest freezer I need a collar to make it tall enough but a fridge might not get to -1°C for lagering. What do you think? Fridge or Freezer? It's going in the garage. Atb. Aamcle

    Cost of Yeast Starters? Alternatives to DME?

    Cost of Yeast Starters? Alternatives to DME? Generally I try to use dry yeast and no starter but today I have a 4litre starter bubbling away, I'm over building so I have extra yeast to store. But the cost of DmE can be £7.50 for 500g so it's a considerable contribution to the cost of a batch...

    Im feeling lazy and its cold in the garage!!

    Kits are temping as an AG brew day is about 5 hours and it's cold outside.........:( :( Are there any kits that are as good (no twang etc) as a competently brewed AG ? It's a couple of years since I brewed a kit and things change so there is hope. Are there any 1/2 size kits? ATB. aamcle

    2" cap split....

    That's 2 out of 2 both white plastic caps split in the same place, were the top meets the side. I'm not King Kong I didn't screw them down that hard there is no great reason for them to break. So I need 2 more, just plain 2" caps I don't need them drilled or to have any fittings attached...

    What Wine recipe ?

    What I like:- Fleurrie Good Merlot Chardonnay Not sweet, not too dry, not much Oak but with some reasonable body. I prefer red wine but chilled the Chardonnay is nice in summer. I have all the common wine making equipment, including a Harris filter, demijohns, airlocks and so on the rest...

    Quality 10l barrels?

    Following up on my previous thread about 10l size storage. Are there any well made/good quality 10/12litre plastic beer barrels? Mine are very very old (1980's) and I should probably replace them but the new ones I've seen don't appear to be as good. Atb. Aamcle

    Plastic Barrels again!

    Before someone says Corny Keg I have two I use them but this time I had to use my two 12litre 2" cap barrels as it was very cold and it's quicker to use a barrel. One of them has leaked again, I could really do with an alternative to Corny kegs or plastic barrels. I bottle over 90% of what...

    Wine kits - how long to condition?

    If I were to make a quality red wine kit how long would it have to be stored before it was at its best? What storage conditions are really needed? I don't have a wine cellar or any cellar at all :( If rather wait a bit longer than drink "raw"... Aamcle

    Splitting a Kit?

    Evening. What kits would you recommend for splitting in to 2 x 11l batches? I'm finding AG a bit of an effort at the moment and 23l all at once takes so long to get through the beer fades. The idea is that I use half the wort from a kit to make beer and put the other half in the freezer...

    Recipe Requests - Augustiner Edelstoff or AHA clone

    Afternoon All. I'm after a good recipe for Augustiner Edelstoff or the Clone Earth Rider Brewery's "Precious Matterial Helles" that's in the AHA library. I've seen a few recipes and some write ups including a massive German PDP file that's too beg for google translate :) but a tested good...

    The best of the best?

    Fathers day is coming and I'll be asked what I want, I'm tempted by a two can/pouch kit. I have brewed AG for years. Eliminating the crazy over hopped IPAs what's the best of the best? Atb. Aamcle

    Cooling Plastic Pressure Barrels?

    I have two old 10-12litre PBs that I like, they are simple and easy to use great for beers with lower carbonation like Stout or British Bitter. However in the absence of a celler or spare fridge keeping them cool in the garage in summer is something I have not managed to do. As a result I only...

    Any 10-12liter barrels with wide neck?

    I have two 1/2 size PBs from the last century (yes they are that old) and they are still going but they have 2" necks. Are there any 1/2 size pressure barrels with wide (4" ) necks? Atb. Aamcle
