No, no brewing sugar used.

1kg of mango chunks added. I think it feels a little thinner because of it. In conjunction with the large amount of oats I added, I may try the beer again with less oats and no mango addition, and work from there. Flavour wise I think I'm on the right track so just need to work on refining it.

30% oats (50/50 malted and flaked) may not have helped then! I didnt have any wheat on hand so will definitely look at changing that for the next one.

Is there anything I can add to the keg to improve head retention of an already brewed beer? It's a NEIPA, a style I'm just starting to experiment with. Aroma and flavour are great but the head retention is literally non existent, like cider. Carbonation is fine, pours with a head of large...

Oh wow, that's a game changer!! And yes, your right, so obvious! Thank's for pointing out, and thanks to @RoomWithABrew

Most of mine are slightly angled so they sit just above the bottom of the keg, so there is always a bit left over. I will maybe do a test purge and try shaking it around to see how much is left.

I am just about to do my first closed transfer and stumbled upon this old thread! I want to do Method 2, where I purge the StarSan out of the keg, but is it really not an issue that you will be leaving some of the sanitiser behind in the keg? I know it is 'no-rinse' but my kegs once empty will...

Count me in, sounds great!

OP here. Rather than make a new thread, just a quick question. I'm 9 days into fermentation. Tried to take a gravity reading from liquid post, but seems my dip tube/ball lock has immediately clogged with the dry hops floating around (note to self, get a filter on the end of the dip tube next...

Yeah, your right, I just asked him to send some pics and he's got 3/8 push fits into the Sankey coupler. Easy then! I should have asked him first, I assumed it was the screw on type like above! Thanks

Hi all, I'm taking a corny keg up to a mate's house where he has a commercial system fitted with sankey couplers. I am trying to find out the easiest way to serve my corny keg on his system without having to cut his lines or cause too much hassle. I keep coming across the following - Female...

Thanks, very detailed explanation. I do still have the packaging, 13.3g per 100g, so I have calculated (in 20L) this should be worth an additional 2.55 gravity points. Will need to save this somewhere so I don't foget! Very helpful!

Wondering if any smart people out there could point me towards some info on this.... I've added 1kg of frozen mango chunks to my primary about 7 days in. I can see that this has kicked fermentaion off again. So my question is how do I go about calculating how many gravity points I have added...

Well I seem to have opened a can of worms here! I am already aware of the advice on not using a PRV as a spunding valve so would never have gone down this route. For now, I have got the batch ferementing at room temperature out of my ferementation fridge. Once fermentation is finished I am...

Hahaha, the preview I got on my phone for this did not show your text! I had no idea how the subject of this thread had turned so quickly!

Yeah, using the new shorter disconnects with built in duotight. Already have the stand inverted also. That threaded bulkhead looks interesting though, cheers. Is 1/4" the right size for the Fermzilla, I am just trying to find that info online now (suppose I could measure it!!)

I recently got the 30L version of the all rounder and am about to give my first brew a go which will be a NEIPA. I have struggled with this style before as I believe with the amount of dry hopping I have always introduced some oxygen that the beer could have done without. My issue - The All...

Just to confirm, sold on Facebook to someone on the forum. Not sure if it was you Hopsandglory, but thanks!

Hi all, Have been trying to shift a Peco Digital Mashing Bin, plus false bottom and colander, for BIAB brewing. I don't think the Facebook alogirthm is treating me well as it's picking up next to no views on Marketplace. If anyone is interested, please let me know. Ideally it would be for pick...

It is very tight, I have got 513mm between my shelf and the top of the fridge. With the stand upside down, the measurement to the top of the posts is apparently 507mm. I did not think of tilting though, and those disconnects look really useful! I think I will take the plunge and see if it...
