nice one ORFY,enjoy!:tank:

beer finnings (isinglass(for use after fermentation))never used em cos my beer drops bright after two weeks in the secondery,but i do use copper finnings(in the boiler). grain bag i tried once and thougt it was a peice of c##p,that was a waste of money.i got one of the enginers at work to make...

from everything that i,ve ever read the reason we airate wort when cool is becouse oxygen dissolves better into solution than when the wort is hot.

Good luck with the first brew oli, and wecome. all grain is the way to go if you like great beer,load's better than the rubbish sold over yer average bar.

Big 4 zeeero next june,aaaaaaah! and still no wrinkles, oh yeh (stay out of that sun girls and stub out that smoke)

No such thing as ghosts,only pranksters and over active minds! waste of brain power that,my brain only thinks about beer(and one other thing sometimes)usally whats my next brew.

Hi Sause Sounds lovely does that recipe! although its a bit sparse on the hops, porters can be anything upto 40 ibu's and still have a good flavour balance. personaly i would enjoy low 30's,all a matter of taste eh!

I voted for ninja but after all that talk about what pirate's get up to i'll take one of them home too please!:o

Wecome Rhonda! This has got to be "THE" site for brewers, male or female.

This is one of my all time favorite beers,worth a another try in bottle form. glibbidy check out "fullers" web site for a special ESB glass (gobblet style)mine just arrived last week,great! holds a full pint too.

just get her to type in the bar code like when it wont scan at all,after explaining about the yeast/or how about save the label from your last bottle and get her to scan that!

I've had some way over carbonated bottles and never had one explode. I use one teaspoon of white cane suger per 500ml bottle and get good fizz. In my early days of brewing i would bottle streight from the primary until one batch was bottled when it was still fermenting (not intended) and...

Sounds good as is,if you like your beer dark,4oz black malt is in the top range for a mild,i'd make it 2oz and split the other 2oz,1oz each extra of crystal/chocolate malt,1.5oz of fuggle is just fine,again top end of the scale. ps. mild ale is not that easy to find on tap here in the...

Sounds nice,allthough it's gona need six months to mellow that bitterness,hope you can wait! is 60 min boil long enough? i always do a 90 min boil.

Right on Ray!my youngest girl is 11 and love's to help brew,esp pouring the yeast starter into the cooled wort with the words "there you go bugs get eating and pooing"makes me laugh every time.

sorry, but what's that!"chick filet" ,if that was my home brew shop i'd be closed on sundays too,make'in an suppin beer!:mug:

Morrisons super market has a small selection of brew stuff,but have an even better range of bottle'd beer!:drunk:

I use this type of keg and feel the same about carbonation,so i use about 4 tbls of white sugar for priming,i use the top tap/float type and get enouph carbonation to dispense 2/3rds of the contents after that co2 gets the rest.so 100g of LME sounds ok to me:mug:

That's what it sounds like to me too. Just brought a bottle of snpa(350ml) up from the celler thats been sat there for a few weeks to take a look at the sediment and yes its in there but not a lot,it looks like very small cotton wool balls and is easly disturbed.

Hi rob,once your mate's know your brew'in, that 10 gallon kit is gona be goin like express train to keep up with the drink they will get through,im lucky if i drink 50% of what i make:mug:
