I'm a noob, first thing I wanna do is make a beer that tastes good, using basic kit, then build on that, I wanna get my process in control the best I can before becoming adventurous :)

Yeah I'm gonna get another batch on the go ASAP, we have some really good containers at work that are ideal for fermenting so I'm thinking about getting hold of a couple an having a couple of batches on the go, I'm in Yorkshire, where are you?

I'm a newb myself but from what I've read so far you should wait until fermentation has finished then prime with the required amount if sugar, boil a cup of water and dissolve sugar, add to barrel, syphon fermented beer into barrel to naturally carbonate, I'm currently making lager and will be...

Is it one of these

Got a lager kit from my brother for Xmas, currently 6 days into fermentation and the patience is killing me, cant wait for it to be ready so me and my brother can have a good sesh on it!! already looking for upgrades and thinking about my next batch!!

Mine will be going in my outbuilding, which is as cold as a fridge at this time of year anyway, not sure what to do in the summer, will probably bottle from it and then chill in the fridge

To all newbies in particular, I got a kit for chrimbo and how to still be here this time next year but smashed on my own brew Happy brewing Scotty

Those barrels do allow the injection of co2 if needed

I'll check it out, cheers, party time!!

I think u just put it in with the sugar primer leave it and serve from it or bottle from it

Thank god for that, I've got the same barrel, thought I'd been robbed for a minute lol

I'll pick one up before its due for transfer Thanks again and happy new year!!

Sounds good :) I can see myself doing something similar if the Missus kicks me into the outhouse for brewing, should be ok in summer but this time of year it's freezing out there :/

I could cable tie something to my syphon pipe to make the end I'm syphoning from rigid, this would resemble a racking cane?

All I've got is some pipe with a debris trap, it says to syphon into bottles or barrel?
