Black Wych is also one of my faves... 4 for £6 in morrisons. 3 of those and a random 1 random I have entered tried yet 😊 Sent from my SM-T280 using Tapatalk

It's the same as the tesco one, but a pound cheaper :whistle: I started at 65.5'C and an hour later 63.7'C. I did have a blanket around it, but it wasn't very thick.

Haha :lol:

Thankyou. However handiwork wasnt that good... there were mistakes made along the way:lol:

Here's my setup http://www.thehomebrewforum.co.uk/showthread.php?p=683579#post683579

So after using kits for a while, I decided to attempt AG. Not wanting to spend a fortune, I thought I would build my own equipment and upgrade as I go. I am a total beginner at this so I watched a lot of videos and set at it. Yesterday I completed my first AG and it seemed to go ok (apart from...

I can do, but to be fair I just followed a few videos on youtube. :lol: I'll take some photos of all the gear I used and post tomorrow.:thumb:

OG turned out at 1070, so I boiled and cooled water (amount guessed) and I'm now at 1050. Recipes states 1045, so not far off.

Thank you. Considering my first go and a lot of inexperience, it did seem to go ok. That all makes sense. Maybe I should turn one of the elements off once its upto boil. For the KW... I haven't a clue :) I think next time I will boil outside. I had it right next to an open door, but...

So yesterday I carried out my first AG with all the equipment I built myself. It seemed to go OK, but I learnt a few lessons. 1. Boil more water than needed. As my boil kettle is an plastic FV with kettle elements and a hole and valve I drilled, there was quite a bit of dead space at...

That's what I meant. I was a few beers in when I typed it 😊 Sent from my SM-T280 using Tapatalk

I'd love to do a 'victory ale' clone from batemans Sent from my SM-T280 using Tapatalk

Every time I pass a friend a homebrew beer, they give a funny look and move to a 'mass produced' beer. I understand I'm never going to totally remove that, I just want and appreciation of the effort! Sent from my SM-T280 using Tapatalk

I take it the 'homebrew' taste has gone? Sent from my SM-T280 using Tapatalk

I'm going to take the elements out and put them in the plastic vessel. Lots of videos on YouTube. Whether it's the best option. .. I don't know? Haha https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86-1TfIvYPs&feature=youtu.be Sent from my SM-T280 using Tapatalk

My issue is... whenever I make a 'kit' it has the 'homebrew' taste. Is that still there with all grain? Sent from my SM-T280 using Tapatalk

Thank you... I'll take a look 👍 Sent from my SM-T280 using Tapatalk

So, this morning I woke up and decided it's time to try all grain. I've been reading and watching videos over the last few weeks on 'how to'. I bought most the bits I need and built the mash tun today, including spare arm. Tomorrow I plan to make the boil kettle and sort the fridge out (my...

My have to look for a free fridge then 😊 Sent from my SM-T280 using Tapatalk
