Yes, sounds like a plan. 2l is the biggest I can do, should be enough. Thank you.

Hi all. Not done this before but harvested the yeast from a pils I just bottled and want to pitch this into another 23l batch of 5% lager. Question is, have I harvested enough here?

Have put a message on your profile, think I got it right! Cheers.

If you get no takers to pick up and will at that point consider posting/courier I'd be interested depending on cost of postage. Let me know please. Cheers!

Hi Stib, Welcome to the forum I found everyone so helpful when I was starting out. I'm in Norwich so good to have someone else from Norfolk on, there are only a few of us on here! If you want any help or advice let me know, or ask the forum. I can give you the details of a local homebrew club...

Hi all. Selling due to having upgraded. 45 litre converted picnic cooler mash tun complete with weldless tap and male connector to put tubing on. Braided hose internally to allow for nice clear wort runnings. Well used but in good condition, very solid and works well. Have brewed many...

I've bottled mine already in 330ml bottles. Not quite Imperial so just an Extra Stout I guess (got a **** efficiency was hoping for nearer 8%, oh well). Ingredients: 3.4 kg Belgian 2 row Pale Malt 0.55 kg Amber Malt 0.4 kg Brown Malt 0.2 kg Black Patent Malt 0.2 kg Chocolate Malt...

Thanks all. Much appreciated.

Great thank you.

Hi all, Thinking of doing an Orange Witbier next, and also thought a hint of ginger would be good in it. Anyone used root ginger in the boil before? I've read that as little as 10-15g (finely chopped) at the end of the boil can come through in the final beer, I just want it to be there...

Me + DIY = NOT FUN !:laugh8:

Thanks all. Much appreciated. I don't BIAB, the grain would be in there loose. So would I have any issues with sticking on the element/bottom if I'm purely mashing in it (and boiling in another kettle) in your experience? Presumably not at mash temperatures and with the false bottom too.

Hi all. I want to upgrade from my current cooler box mash tun to one where I can control the temperature accurately. Do some step mashing etc. Looking at this, and think it's a pretty good deal...

Hi all, Just moving into using liquid yeast, so bought this: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/253323073826 I'd have no clue how to make my own, even with instructions, and was only £26 so went for it. Ordered Sunday, arrived Wednesday. Seems sturdy and well made and works. Came with magnetic stir...

Happy Brew Year! Having a go at this today: Ingredients: 4kg Maris Otter 0.1kg Crystal 60 0.15kg Wheat Malt 1 x Safale 05 80g Cascade Hops a.a. 7.6% 5g Irish Moss With additions as follows: 40g Cascade at 60 mins Irish Moss at 15 mins 25g Cascade at 10 mins Then dry hop with 15g of...

Most important, the Mrs liked it, so less grief for taking over the kitchen to brew from now on! :lol:

This turned out better than I hoped. Everyone loved it who tried it at Christmas, and it scooped the beer of the month at our Homebrew club! Nice red tint to it, with a pinkish head and just enough raspberry flavour to be able to taste it while complementing the malt but not overpowering it...

I've been busy brewing/planned ahead/shown immense willpower and will have the following ready to drink at Christmas: 20 x 500ml Bottles Dry Stout @ 3.6% ABV (Bottled in July and saved half the batch for Christmas) 20 x 500ml Bottles Double AIPA @ 7.1% ABV (Bottled on 8/10 and managed to...

Big ones too. :lol:

Bottled it today. Lovely red colour to it, dregs in bottling bucket tasted nicely of Raspberry but not too much. Indebted to Poochops and JFB for the advice on upping the amount of Raspberries. Cheers! Boiled up some muslin and a rubber band and put over the end of my syphon, then sanitised...
