Hi All Well the out of date kit has fermented out ...what a stink from the fermenter never had that before also the bottom of the ferementer was full of gritty type material and i have a rather nasty stain at the top where the "crud" usually sits not sure of the correct terminology.

I have put it in a barrel doesnt seem to smell there primed with sugar and screwed on the lid ...

We shall wait and see the results.

Also barreled the heavy that was fermented out at the same time and started two more adsa 4l aj 500 g tate n lyle turbo..bubbling already less than 20 mins with no starter.

Cheers
