Jim's Beer Kit

That kind of description is always taken with a pinch of salt
If it's cold pressed peel then it should be ok to use. It's listed as 100% grapefruit oil so no iffy additives. I've contacted the seller for more info but am still awaiting a reply.

Hi all Has anybody used http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/400984157414 this type of stuff in their beers? I know Rob sells cold pressed extract but I'm wondering what's the difference between it and this as it's also cold pressed. It's listed as being good for digestion and the immune system which would imp...

Is that one of the ones with the mesh in the lid too?

Have a good read of this. It has a lot of good information on how to apply a hopping regime. http://scottjanish.com/examination-of-studies-hopping-methods-and-concepts-for-achieving-maximum-hop-aroma-and-flavor/ Very interesting...... Will need to give it another couple of readings before it all si...

Would be interesting to know for sure what pump is used on the ace 30l, The one with it in the base. I thought I had read somewhere that the grainfather and Ace used the same pump not 100% sure. Is there any ace owners who could pop the bottom off there system and see what it says on the pump data ...

Someone did say that it's the same pump

Someone else said it's 6.5 litres till you get to the bottom of the grain basket if that's any good but as regards what's left under the tap/filter I can't help

Cheers. Tom

Identical machine but the one in the opening post includes a cooling coil. The Ace Brewer doesn't

Cheers. Tom

Been thinking and those 24 hour timer things wouldn't be any use. You'd still need to set the machine in manual or programmed mode once the timer thing switched the machine on

Bought one of those a few weeks ago. Only used it the once so far but it's dead easy and I love the recirc facility

my current setup goes on the stove top so I have use of the cooker hood. My previous setup was was like that although I struggled to get a good rolling boil so didn't produce too much steam. Thinking ahead I'm toying with the idea of a false bottom and fitting some kind of home made hop back on the...

Don't know if the pump is up to creating a whirlpool but it's supposed to be the same pump as used in the grainfather. Apart from that you'd need a false bottom as there's no filter on the inlet to the pump. The machine has a 5 step programmable timer, temp, element power and time. No auto switch on...

Happy camper

The Mrs forgot to get a lemon so I've just had a go with some vinegar. Had to leave it to soak but it all came off without a problem

Thanks for the help
