Common word pairs. Posted: 20 Aug 2021 05:04 PM PDT I have seen this on another forum and its popular so will give it a go here. It doesn't need to be beer related anything goes, it also doesn't need to match any of the words in the previous post. I will start it with - Kings Head (pub) |
Hi from Caithness Posted: 20 Aug 2021 04:24 PM PDT Hey folks, figured I'd say hi. Probably been over 30 years since i last made wine. Only kit stuff though. My wife bought me a Youngs 30 bottle Merlot kit for Xmas and I got around to making it a couples weeks ago. Turned out to be more of a Rose than a Merlot, but it's quite a nice drink and I managed to get a little over 29 bottles, so quite pleased. I never had many demijohns in the past but I gave them away a few years ago, not thinking that I'd make a return to wine making. Anyway, made... Hi from Caithness |

Which movie(s) have you watched recently? Posted: 20 Aug 2021 03:43 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...

Show Us Your Bird Posted: 20 Aug 2021 02:28 PM PDT Just nicked this from the Independent. It's an amazing photo. The thieving little bar-steward. Makes a change from reading about the depredations of the Tali-wing-nuts in Afghanistan and whining Incest losers. Does anyone remember going to the Pure Drop in Lagland Street, Poole, when they had a parrot on the bar. Dangerous bit of kit, as I recall. |

Keeping pumps clean Posted: 20 Aug 2021 01:12 PM PDT I use the small 12 volt dc solar pumps for recirculating and transferring during my brew day. When I've finished a circulate hot clean water through the pumps and when it's time to brew again they get stripped down to clean all the nasty black gunge out and sanitise. I'm thinking this must be a problem with all pumps left wet after a brew day. I did strip the pumps down immediately after brew day for a clean and air dry then I left them in bits until next brew day but for some reason... Keeping pumps clean |
yeast starter confusion Posted: 20 Aug 2021 01:07 PM PDT Planning on making a yeast starter for my next brew. The liquid yeast I have says its good for a 19ltr batch. Though we're aiming for a 19ltre batch we might end up with a touch more and its a high OG beer. This coupled with the fact I didn't put the yeast in the fridge immediately I just feel I want to give the yeast the best chance when I pitch it. I've looked on a number of YouTube and other sources and there are some differences and I'm not sure what I need to do. Some say you need to... yeast starter confusion |
Kveik Stuck Fermentation - what to do? Posted: 20 Aug 2021 01:07 PM PDT I'm fermenting this Kveik NEIPA All grain home brew recipe kit - Brewboard Brewer, WHC Yeast and The Malt Miller Colab - this seriously good NEIPA pulls its fruity magic from Sultana, Comet and Hallertau Blanc, put to work by Framgarden Kveik. A meeting of minds, methods and ingredients that's made a grapefruit, pineapple and... www.themaltmiller.co.uk Started at 35C. It's now 6 days in and still at 1020-1022. I put in the dry hops 3 days ago dropped to 32C. 2 days ago I added 2 tsp of yeast nutrient but it doesn't seem to have done anything. Possibly it's gone down 1-2 points in 2 days but that could be sample variation / temperature. I removed the dry hops today. Should I leave the fermenter at...

Hi from Oakley, Hampshire Posted: 20 Aug 2021 12:18 PM PDT Its been around 8 years since I started home brewing and have now retired so will be able to spend a bit more time at this. My late father was a big home brewer back in the 1970s and also a National Beer judge and those memories and the resulting real ale, I suppose, got me into it. I started off with a couple of kits and soon moved onto experimenting with extract brews before taking the plunge with an all-grain set up 5 years ago and have never looked back. Trouble is I always want to keep... Hi from Oakley, Hampshire |
