| Pre built pid temperature controller Posted: 07 May 2021 07:51 PM PDT Does anyone know of a company that sells these pre built or could anyone build me 1 if so how much would i be looking at. Tia Al |
| Posted: 07 May 2021 07:38 PM PDT Like Doctor Frankenstein I am seeking to combine and reanimate the dead! I've posted previously that I came into possession of an out of date Coopers Australian Lager kit and was pondering what to do with it. I found some information from someone who has tried brewing old kits and reported that they are still OK to use (in my case the can itself looked in good condition) but fermentation may take longer and have a higher finishing gravity. Using it to bulk up another... My Australian Monster |

| Which movie(s) have you watched recently? Posted: 07 May 2021 05:29 PM PDT I'm a bit of a cinephile, movies are probably my second love after brewing, I have a "watchlist" which is almost as long as my "brewlist" and I try to watch a couple of films off it each week. I'm always open for suggestions and love hearing what people have watched recently, what their opinion was and why. With such a melange of people on the forum I'm sure I'm not the only one, so what are you watching, or have you watched recently? I'll go first, last night I watched... Which movie(s) have you watched recently? |
| Posted: 07 May 2021 04:28 PM PDT Today I learned that if you're going to poke a spoon (well, a cake slice, don't ask) into your wort, sanitise the whole thing and not just the business end . . . Because when, not if, it slips and falls in you will worry less what nasties you may have introduced. |
| Posted: 07 May 2021 04:08 PM PDT Posting this here as i don't want to hijack the cycle thread. Why is it legal to ride an e-bike in the U.K as long as it does not exceed 25kph (15.5mph) or have a motor which generates more than 250 Watts of power but it isn't OK to ride an e-scooter on public roads, pavements, in cycle lanes and in pedestrian-only areas? The government wants us to go green yet they ban the use of electric scooters, crazy. When is an e-bike not an e-bike? E-bikes are classed as... e-bike and e-scooters. |
| Covid the jab and the final stage. Posted: 07 May 2021 03:49 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.  |
| Ban on new petrol and diesel cars in UK from 2030 under PM's green plan Posted: 07 May 2021 03:46 PM PDT  Ban on new petrol and diesel cars in UK from 2030 under PM's green planThe PM confirms he is bringing the ban forward as he sets out his "green industrial revolution". www.bbc.co.uk So, how is this going to work then? I suppose they will have to put a 50% fuel duty on electricity instead in order to recoup the loss in this revenue! |
| Posted: 07 May 2021 03:40 PM PDT Got 2 bags of citra leaf recently And it had this stink like smelly socks Normally when I smell pellets I'm like oooooo that smells good Is leaf different or does anyone know is it stale maybe |
| Posted: 07 May 2021 03:12 PM PDT Afternoon all, Recently gotten into brewing and picked up the 'feeling hoppy' IPA kit from Wilko's Artisan range. Just thinking about additions I can do, as my experience of other homebrew kits people have done is they can often come out a bit watery and flavourless. It's a 1.8kg kit with 10g Amarillo hops. I was thinking: Add 1KG Beer enhancer and 500g Light Dry Malt Extract to the kit. Add a hop tea using the 10g Amarillo (is 10g enough?) Pitch yeast at appropriate temperature 3/4...

| Posted: 07 May 2021 03:02 PM PDT Just got some chemsan today is it really no rinse an do you have to let it dry before putting wort into fermenter or is it like starsan where they say dont fear the foam |

| Posted: 07 May 2021 02:27 PM PDT Can anyone advise me on the following - don't think my record keeping was quite up to scratch, but I'm still very much a beginner! I made some parsnip & ginger wine and noted the following: O.G. 1.112 (with 2.5lbs sugar and a lot of parsnips and yes, I now know that's disastrously high) - it went down quite a bit (not recorded) so Added another 8oz of syrup which made it 1.118 (overdid it a bit there...) Went down to 0.986 so I added another 5oz. syrup Went down to 0.994 so I added... Maths failure.... |
| Posted: 07 May 2021 02:10 PM PDT Hi All really like this kit grapefruit ipa when I make it again was thinking of adding more grapefruit juice is not a good idea has anyone done this . |
| Posted: 07 May 2021 02:05 PM PDT It looks like my wife and I are going to be buying a 1248 square foot house in Indiana. The cost will only be about $90 more a month than what we're now paying to live in less than 300 square feet of substandard housing in California. |
| Posted: 07 May 2021 02:01 PM PDT In a couple of weeks time I am gonna start to BIAB. I was going over this book by Dave Line 'Brewing beers like those you buy' first published in 1977. Perusing through this fine book. I found many recipes for beers still sold today. And then I came across these Watney's recipes (ie Watney Cream label, Watney Mann Brown Ale, Watney Mann Special Bitter, Watney Mann Starlight Beer and Watney Mann Mild - but no red) So I thought, hmm I had not heard of this brewery so I'll check it out. I... The Great Watney's debate |
| Posted: 07 May 2021 01:53 PM PDT Some people may not want to write out a full brewday report but just say what they brewed. So what did you brew today? I made a 'bit's and bobs stout' to use up the odds and ends of grain I had |
| Posted: 07 May 2021 01:46 PM PDT Currently about to use M76 yeast for the first time to make a lager. Modified a fridge yesterday to keep my fermentation at 10 degrees. It says the yeast should be 8-14 degrees in fermentation, but what about pitching temp? I was thinking of pitching around 18 degrees then after about 6 hours turn the new fridge set up on so it slowly brings the temp down... And should I use 2 packets in 23L.. Thanks in advance |
| Posted: 07 May 2021 01:41 PM PDT Brilliantly I've manged to screw up a recipe that has 2 malts and 1 hop. It was supposed to be a mosaic pale ale using 5.2kg of pale and 100g dark crystal but I picked up black crystal instead! Any idea what beer style this will give me as I no longer know what to call it... It's much darker than it should be, like a Mild or even a porter. |
