Hey guys, I've not been on this forum for a long time.. having two small children put an end to the free time I used for brewing! I started with kits and got into BIAB brewing before I stopped. I use a stainless pot for the brew, cornelius kegs to dispense, and currently have a number of...

Hey guys, I used my corny kegs for the first time on my last brew, with mixed results. They are 9L kegs, pin lock, and I'm using a tap attached directly to the disconnect, with the idea of it being fairly portable. I filled them and hooked up the CO2, and set the regulator to about 30PSI...

Hey guys, I've had some great results lately with US hops... An Amarillo SMaSH that was awesome, then a Columbus and Citra recipe that was the best I've done so far. Anyway I've got a stag weekend coming up in a couple of months and wanted to brew something for that, and thought of using...

Hey guys, I've recently got some corny kegs, and a converted fire extinguisher as a co2 tank. It's all finally working now when tested with water in the kegs. So... Now I need to get some beer in there! I have a nice Citra / Columbus pale ale than will be ready to keg next week, but I just...

Hey guys, I know this has been asked a lot, but I'm after some advice when using cornelius kegs. I went a bit mad on eBay recently, and now have two 9L kegs and a 19L keg. The plan was to use the 9L kegs for parties and weekends away, as they're nice and portable. I'll then bottle the...

Hey guys, Sorry for the long post, but I've got a problem with off flavours in my beer and thought I'd ask if others have had the same. I made the switch from kits to BIAB all grain brewing this year, and I've now done five AG brews. The first one was my 50l boiler on the gas hob, and I had...

Hey guys, Sorry if this is a long post, but I'm having problems with off flavours having moved from kits to BIAB, and having done two AG brews. I've just bottled AG#2 tonight, after 11 days in the FV. Both brews were Bathams Bitter clones; after the first one went wrong I decided to stick to...

Hey guys, I did my first AG BIAB brew a couple of weeks ago, and I think it went pretty well. The beer is bottled and it's looking good! Anyway, I was using my kitchen hob, which despite being a big range cooker with a huge wok burner, needed the big burner and several others on to bring my...

Hey guys, I've brewed a few kits, and now decided to jump into BIAB all grain brewing. I've gradually built up the kit, with a 50L stainless boiler, voile bag, and a home made wort chiller, and yesterday was the day to start my first proper brew. So... Friday afternoon included a trip to the...

Hey guys, I joined this forum a while ago but have just been lurking really... in the meantime I've done four kit brews, which went well, and its given me the bug to get more into brewing. So, The Wife kindly bought me a 50L stainless boiler, and I went and got some voile and made a nice...

Hi everyone! I've just signed up to the forum today after doing some reading over the past week about brewing beer. I've never brewed before, but my wife bought her father a kit for his birthday and it turned out very well, so I'm now wanting to have a go myself! While I haven't done it...
