My Claim to Fame

Claims to Fame.

For those who don't know, this was a running gag on 'Wake Up to Wogan', where people with strange names like Mick Sturbs, Norma Stitts, or Rudolph Hart, wrote in with their 'Claim to Fame' – like they once had their foot trodden on by Henry Cooper, or had once stood in the next urinal to Frank Sinatra.

In the early sixties Tin Pan Alley hijacked the type of music my contemporaries had to search for a decade earlier, and what they now called Trad Jazz was all over...

Covid the jab and the final stage.

Posted: 11 May 2021 03:14 PM PDT

SWMBO is a front line worker (carer) she has had the first jab and is now tested twice a week she also has the lateral flow test with the results showing 30 minutes after the test whenever she goes to work on the other days, there are no cases of Covid where she works and there hasn't been for quite a while.

I am hoping as a front line worker my turn will come soon my age will also help, its not often i am glad i am an old fart. :laugh8:

I think, in fact I know I am not the only member here who does a bit of cycling, maybe not all as obsessed as myself but nevertheless I thought anyone with an interest could post pictures of your bikes, it doesn't have to be an £10k super bike as long as you enjoy riding it, perhaps with a little bit about it or how you enjoy cycling.
So I have a few bikes and here is a handful of them..........

Working out quantities for a smaller brew

Posted: 11 May 2021 02:41 PM PDT

Hi,

I wanted to have a go at brewing an all grain smash beer and I need a little advice on working out the quantities of ingredients.

I am looking to make a really small batch. I've been brewing wine for a number of years now and so my fermenting gear is focused around 1 gallon/5 liter demijohns. Looking online for beer recipes, I notice that most are for 19 or 25 liter fermenting vessels.

Can I take any of these recipes and scale them down by dividing the amount of ingredients based in...

Another noob in need of aid.

Posted: 11 May 2021 02:27 PM PDT

I'm a novice at the whole wine making journey but have read up a fair amount about the process in terms of the task of making said wine and the chemistry of how it happens but what I need is some experience. First post so I hope I'm giving enough info to aid you in aiding me...

The Experiment
My first experimental must is a 5 litre batch of raspberry conserve (jam) wine that had an IG of 1.130. The recipe used was basically 3 pots of jam, water and heaps of sugar to take the IG up to...

the mystery cloudy wine bottle

Posted: 11 May 2021 01:55 PM PDT

i did a batch of tropical juice drink into wine and all is well. a lovely sweet wine tho i now have a bit of an odd one out.
i got 4 and 3/4th of 75cl bottle out of it all of them are clear except one. what is throwing me for a loop is that the last one is perfectly clear aswell.
all i can think that happend is that i disturbed the yeast during one of the bottles but it settled quickly enough to not effect the others? also if you shake the cloudy one it is alot more foamy the the others any...

Festival London Porter kit question!

Posted: 11 May 2021 01:49 PM PDT

Hiya,
so I started this kit on Tuesday this week and the instructions says to add the bag of hops after 5 days, I'm still seeing a lot of activity and it's still bubbling away like mad. My question is do I add the hops tomorrow if It's still bubbling away.
thanks.

Need help on choosing grains

Posted: 11 May 2021 01:28 PM PDT

Hi all
I'v just made the leap into AG. Iv done a couple of dark rock AG kits and been very pleased with the outcome. My next step is to invest in a grain mill and buy uncrushed grains, seems logical to save a couple of quid in the long run. Thing is I live in Jersey and the shipping costs are high so I want to buy a good selection in a one bulk order so I can do a few different styles. I tend to like British ales like London Pride, Doom Bar, Speckled Hen and the odd IPA. So help in needed...

Towards FV temp control...

Posted: 11 May 2021 01:25 PM PDT

Just to prove I've been listening to the sage advice (@foxy and others) about the importance of fermentation temps, I'm making steady progress on a design based on a heat exchanger coil plumbed in to the FV. For various reasons this had more change of approval by the management than a FermFridge ;)

So at the weekend I finished the coil itself, made from 10m of 1/4" tubing. In fact the flow resistance of this stuff is pretty high, so to avoid overworking the pump I'm...

Bat Cave brewing

Posted: 11 May 2021 01:20 PM PDT

After much reading of sound sages advice here I did my first beer brew today, went for the standard Wilko Wherry.
Cleaned everything in the kitchen that didn't move...dog legged it!. And didn't leave a mess (higher authority is very pleased)
Followed the advice about the 1/2 campden tablet in the water (we have a distinct Chlorine smell in the tap water) in one FV while I mixed the cans and boiling water into the other. Moved the FV to the bat cave ( lord 23lts of waters heavy!) and...

Initial thoughts on BIAB in Klarstein Fullhorn

Posted: 11 May 2021 12:48 PM PDT

Just thought I would share some feedback having done a couple of all-grain recipes in my Klarstein Fullhorn in case it should prove useful to anyone.


The unit has a capacity of 26.7L to the full line when the bazooka and false bottom are fitted. Approximately 1 litre of wort is retained unless the unit is tipped.

It takes around 1 hour to heat 25L of 7'C water to 100'C. (I just wondered!)

Mash can be maintained circa 66'C using just the 900W element. Rolling boil can be maintained using...
