All seems fine. It's sitting in the fermenter. Looks as if I got 8-9l out of it. once I pulled the grain bag out I used warm water to "sparge it into a bucket and used it to top up. I have 50g Cascade so I did 15g @60 15g @0 remembering i don't have anything to cool it with and possibly 20g dry hop ...

I haven't had much luck lately, my first ever brewpot was hit by hail and my second one was out in the garage after a brew day, had too many after brew drinks and drove my car right into everything. Next excuse was I replaced nothing as the Mrs was offered jobs in either the UAE or Devon and I didn'...

I started on kits, then went to extract and now I was then doing small batches of 8l AG.
My dad is keen on a Muntons kit and he lives close by so I am gooing back to Kits for a while.
I like the ease of use for kits, but I like how AG I can make a million different styles of beer.

Hahaha, Howzit Wales. I got a 30l pot that I did a couple BIAB with. Moved house onto a small holding in the middle of nowhere so haven't had the time for mashing and boiling so done a Ditches Stout and some Guava wine with home grown Guava's. Now that we have a tractor (not on to brew with) chores ...

Having only really had access to Coopers kits I now see an online shop does these double can Muntons at double the price. With every brew I do a CPP (Cost Per Pint) out of habit. If it tastes good and is affordable, I do it again.
How much better is the quality of a two can kit?

I recently raided the folks orchard and decided to make wine.

1kg Guavas whole
1kg white sugar
4l of water
Lager yeast ( all I had)

We busy with fermentation and it smells great!
My plan is to put one brew into an IPA FV to see what happens.

Real easy recipe.
Last year it went down a treat!

I wish people would hide beer for me.

Thanks Wales! Kits are just too expensive in SA. One can, no additions can cost the same as a BIAB brew. Keen to also start playing (not to the extent of a tractor cock ale)

I've been in hiding for a while, brew equipment was smashed in a storm last year and hating doing 5l batches. Was looking at emigrating so didn't replace the equipment as I thought it would be easier to buy once we had moved. Long story short, SWMBO is getting promoted Jan next year (She has materni...

He could mash his grains in the engine housing and use the pto shaft to grind them.
They cooked a crayfish in a Lamborghini engine in South Africa a couple years back on a TV show called top billing a couple years ago.

I honestly thought Wales had come up with another crazy recipe using a tractor spare or something. Wouldn't put it past him after his cock ale.

Very nice! I'm jealous

What brew system are you using?
Beer looks great
