| Show us your Pushbikes Posted: 03 Jul 2021 03:12 PM PDT 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.......... First my pride and joy the Ridley Noah SL, this aero bike took me to 10 race wins last year and... Show us your Pushbikes |
| A firm has been fined £200,000 for making over 11 million "unlawful nuisance calls" to the public Posted: 03 Jul 2021 03:10 PM PDT This has made my day i hope they now go on and get lots more of these irritating barstewards. Brazier Consulting Services Ltd (BCS) has been ordered to pay the fine by the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) after it received 316 complaints. BCS had "bombarded" people despite being told to stop and had caused "real distress", the data watchdog said. The Leeds-based company has been approached for a comment.

| Live Brew And BBQ day Posted: 03 Jul 2021 02:35 PM PDT So, In preparation for the game tonight, I decided to Smoke some beef chuck while I Brew. This huge slab of beef was supposed to feed about 8 of us, however my son had to isolate now due to a breakout at his school. This beef is going to last a fair amount of time lol. Chuck is currently smoking at 110°c and I guess it going to take till about 8pm tonight being that is 5kg worth of meat. In the meantime, I'm heating 36 liters of water ready to brew. Will update as I go.[ATTACH... Live Brew And BBQ day |
| Completed AG Recipe Kits-GEB/MM Posted: 03 Jul 2021 02:10 PM PDT Been a bit slack with posting up my brew day activity etc since I became more active on the forum. So here's a couple of posts on Ag brew kits from Get Er Brewed which have served me pretty well. As a new AG brewer I leaned towards these kits as it takes away a bit of stress regarding recipe creation enabling you to concentrate on your methods/processes whilst getting to know your equipment... Maybe others can recommend or give feedback on these type of kits. As I've found them to be pretty... Completed AG Recipe Kits-GEB/MM |
| Closed Transfer From Bucket to Corny Keg Posted: 03 Jul 2021 02:04 PM PDT I thought I'd add this here as a work in progress. After brewing for nearly 3 years I'm now in the process of getting started with corny kegs and I was struggling to find a "how to" on the web to do a closed transfer from a bucket without a tap at the bottom. I'll state for the record that I'm learning/figuring out as I go - if there are any obvious better ways to do stuff, suitable gadgets or gizmos, or obvious problems I've not thought of then all input is welcome! Currently... Closed Transfer From Bucket to Corny Keg |

| Belgian Beer - Recipe check and advice Posted: 03 Jul 2021 01:13 PM PDT Does anyone have any thoughts or comments on the below. I'm looking to brew something strong, just for the sake of it, but want it to be drinkable. I was thinking along the lines of something Belgian and aiming for a deep and complex flavour with good maltiness. So this is what I've come up with - pale as the base, aromatic to get maltiness, biscuit to bring in a slightly different flavour profile. Hops are based on a few recipes I have found so I couldn't tell you what each addition is... Belgian Beer - Recipe check and advice |
| Fizzy stout. Posted: 03 Jul 2021 01:08 PM PDT Hello everyone.
I've just put a Mangrove Jack's Irish Stout (following the kit recipe) into the garage for the last 7 days of conditioning, that was bottled 10 days ago. Obviously had to test it.
It's too fizzy for a stout.
Does anyone have any recommendations as to how I can calm it down. My ideas were either to shake it well before opening or alternatively undoing the lids now in a hope that it flattens this week.
Does anyone have any suggestions please?

| My first go at wine Posted: 03 Jul 2021 12:25 PM PDT Here's a picture and video of my first go at making wine. I have to thank @An Ankoù for the recipe for a rhubarb country wine; 1.6kgs of rhubarb with 1.6kgs of sugar left to osmosis for 2 days.It's happily fermenting away courtesy of a generous heaped teaspoonful of Youngs wine yeast and nutrient. Any of you wine experts give me guidance on how long it'll take to finish fermenting? View attachment 48348 |
| Another Kegerator build Posted: 03 Jul 2021 11:34 AM PDT Not terribly original but I'm going to be starting my kegerator build this weekend and have a few questions that I've not found answers to in searches - well one really at the moment. I'm not an engineering expert and already realising my fridge isn't ideal as a kegerator - but I have it now and am going to make the best of it. The fridge has a freezer section on top as I was looking for dedicated hop storage space, this does mean the taps and handles need to be low enough not to project up... Another Kegerator build |
| Mj juicy ipa Posted: 03 Jul 2021 11:30 AM PDT Just opened a 500ml pet bottle of juicy ipa that was carbed with 2 brew2bottle carb drops, finished it's 2 weeks warm conditioning yesterday and put in the fridge overnight.
It had a good head to start with but soon lost it also it does not have a strong hop taste it's still has a citrus taste, I take it this will all improve with age |
