I just realised I never did update this thread. The above Belgium recipie was very good. Nice and smooth but with the kick you would expect. Brewed this twice and it was a good both times around. Will have to do it again as it's been a few years!

I was thinking about the following the other night and wondered if it would work. Take one bottle of white wine and add to a demijon and add same volume of water as wine. Add sugar and yeast, leave for a few weeks and then bottle in beer bottles with priming sugar. Would this make a nice...

Thanks. I am going to do an oatmeal stout next. Your right there, it does not last long. Is there anythig that does quickly that would be ready to drink around xmas? Ad

Just want to say I did my first extract, it was not as bad as I thought it would be either. I was as methodical as I could have been. I ended up adding the yeast at 11 pm and was half expecting to find a mess all over the floor when I came down this morning but no, just a nice sound of gurgling...

Thats great thanks.

Hi guys I have the stater yeast working away and will be doing my boil tomorrow night. Now, I have read and read the instructions and fully understand when I have to add what to the boil and how to go about it, However once done I am unclear if it all gets trasfered into the primary or if the...

I have just got all my ingredients in the post to make my belgium beer. Reading the wyeast instructions it says I have to make a starter for 24-48 hours! Do I have to do this? I was hoping to get on with it now. Also it mentions well aerated water, how the hell do you do that? Adam

As in Dark malt extract? Unhopped.

Another question. Where the hell do you get corn sugar in the UK?? I can't find it anywhere. If I can't get this whats the next best thing to use??

That has helped no end. Thank you so much.:)

Ladies and Gents I am going to attempt to make the following at the weekend. http://hbd.org/cgi-bin/recipator/recipator?group=20&item=4973 This will be my first extract and only my third brew. I have ordered all the ingredients but am unsure of the process, ie how to do it. Can somebody...

Ladies and Gents I am new to brewing and although I have made one and am brewing my second brew out of a can I get the feeling that this is a way of producing beer, but not the best tasting as its mass produced. I have been looking on the following site...

I am rather new to this so don't know what you mean by grains and steeping them, sorry. What is that? I would just use the best vanilla I could find in the shop I guess.

I have done and bottled my first brew, thinking about the second now.I have heard good things about the nut brown ale kit, can't think who makes it off the top of my head. I was going to make it but add some vanilla to give it a bit extra. Can you do this to a tin based kit, if so how much and...
