Just made a blow off into a glass of water, does it make any difference if the glass is on the floor next to the bucket or on top of the bucket? Just I can see it easier if it's on top. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

It's already brewing at 23 litres now but I am going to make a blow off tube today. The best constant low temperature I can get is 14.5c, will that be ok? On advice of the home brew shop guy I used coopers Australian lager tin, 850g brewing sugar and 500g spray malt light. 150g sugar saved...

I'll get to installing a blow off tube today then thanks. The bucket is about 26 litres but only filled to 23, will the 3 litre gap be enough space? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I've been looking at adding a blow off to the bucket, would a tube from the lid into a glass of water next to the bucket work? I told the guy who runs the shop everything I had and he didn't mention a krausen collar so I guess not, what's it do? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

The tank does but the fermentation bucket doesn't :/ I've just popped one of the clipper bits off so the lid is on but not sealed. will this be a safer way without ruining the alcohol? I can keep it in a 10c room so should be good with temp 👍 Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I went to my local shop today and went with a coopers Australian lager kit, not sure if that's a good thing or not? I've set it all but shouldn't the bucket have some kind of air vent in the lid? To stop it blowing up? Thanks, Landyman Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew
