Jim's Beer Kit

I have bittered with Challenger and late hopped with Nelson, a lovely brew. Sounds a great idea, would you mind sharing that recipe? Hi Kingfisher The recipe is nothing special. The method I use is to think of how I want the malt to be, and think of the hopping separately. So for something with hop...

Wow 2 video's totalling 28 mins to show how to use a bottling stick from a bottling bucket.
Im thinking of doing a 20 min video of me typing this reply.

I've been useing some Jack daniels oak chips for a few years that are sold for BBQ's. They are chipped jack daniels barrels 100% oak no aditives to assist burning. I use them to age rum and whisky, but have also used them with some of my beers. As they are very spirit soaked they are well sanitized....

Try bottled water. If the taste improves, you know waht to investigate further.

Just thought it would be a fun idea, I've seen other YouTube vloggers doing it and it's entertaining and informative from a brewer's perspective. I would be posting my beers out to other brewers too, not just me having all the fun! Oh well, that idea obviously went down like a lead balloon 🎈 😂 haha...

Another one dented. They are going to have to sort there packing out, to protect them from the courier chucking them about.

Just an update on the Klarstein. I have just done my second brew on it, and again I say its fine. I did a 17L brew 1049. I used a hop spider and pellets. I did the boil outside. Although its probably able to brew up to about 24L, I got this to brew smaller batches around 15-17L, With around 18L in i...

Hi Alfie Welcome back. The GW recipe is a fine recipe. I too have been using it for years, I've tried lots of others but always come back to the 70/20/10 grain bill. I sometimes have used other hops, and a few different yeasts. Maybe you could try some WLP 004 yeast which is supposed to be from Guin...

Bugger.
That might pop out, if your gentle with it.

Yes the barb is removable.
There is a tread, I cant say if any of thoses ebay camlocks would fit or not.
But I suspect they would.

The effort you are going to have to go to, to get a small amount of nasty tasting wine.
Why not try it 1st with sugar, it'll taste better than potato, but still taste nasty.
Unless you are then going to distill it, I wouldn’t bother.

If you register on the site and let them add you to there email list. You get £10 off your 1st purchase.
Also for the next 3 days, I was sent a discount code.
Another 15% off - code is - hellospring
I think that should work out as around £185 delivered.

Hi Dave I've just measured the capacity. 26L from empty to the max marking, Then another 5 and a half liters to the brim. 23L should be fine. If the mash temp drops the element is switched back on until it reaches the mash temp again. You should recirculate a few jugs and stir. Yes it does have litt...

Thanks posting about this Norm. It’s seriously tempting. If only it were slightly bigger to enable it to boil down to 23 litres for a king keg! Just a quick question, as I could make slightly smaller batches - do you think it would be possible/advisable to boil the wort using the grain pipe in it a...
