Hi everyone,

After being prompted by my eldest son I have made a website about my brewing experiences, it can be found here.

http://uk-homebrew.tripod.com/

It covers all grain brewing and kit brewing for lager and wine, with a simple but detailed description and photos of my brewing process.

Nice site HH, i like the stuff about making wine, im thinking of getting SWMBO one of the wine kits from H&G thats come with the carboy etc (selection range i think it is), seems like good value.
Are they any good compared to commercial wine?

My sister and her husband both know far more about wine than I do, I gave them a sample of Selection Cabernet/Shiraz and they both said that you would have to pay around £15 per bottle in the shops if you wanted a similiar quality wine.

First time I have been called that, it is usually Leo Sayer, Brian May, (Before my haircut), Jeremy Clarkson or Tom Jones! :lol: :lol:

Thanks for the positive comments about my website, it makes it all worthwhile for me.

Excellent Site HH, where’s the last hour gone – you’ve convinced me to buy better quality wine kits bottle and mature longer, might even label. I’ve been buying cheaper kits putting in poly pins maturing 2 months and supping.

BTW I agree - Moxey :lol:

Cheers

Those wine bottles look the business with the shrink caps and labels.

I normally make my wine from scratch but have tried a few beaverdales - are the kits you use the next step up from those in quality and how much do you pay for 30 bottles.

Yours inquisitively

What a great site 8)

No wonder you have been quite for a while it must of taken ages to bring all of that info together, what a great resource and a fine compliment to DaaBs site.
