Far right is Brupacks Fixby Gold and middle is Turbo Cider.

Trying to find a mid price bitter for the barrel below

Looking good.

Minus 5 brownie points for an empty primary.

Good point Daab.

1 question though, lots of the coopers kits say some spray malt, some sugar and some dextrose.

Is there really any need or can i just go for spray malt? Also i notice there is light and dark, how do i know which to choose?

Thanks

I also have one of those wooden Ikea 'cubes' that's soon to be liberated and put to its proper use

When's the Fixby ready for drinking Hoppkins

Went into keg 26th and i have earmarked 19th Jan for a party to drink it

That gives about 4 weeks, should be enough time to mature a bit

Thanks for the info about the spray malt. I noticed in wilko they do a "Geordie" kit additive. On closer inspection it was about 75% spray malt and 25% dextrose.

I'll do the coopers with 1kg spray malt
