    Brewing my first batch of wine

    Hi, Up to now I have been a novice beer brewer. However, I have just ordered a 6 bottle starter wine pack. Now I know nothing about making wine, but I thought I'd give it a go - that's why I'm starting with 6 bottles. I have 2 fermenters, paddle, hydrometer, air lock etc - usually used for beer...

    Keeping CO2 level...

    Its pretty cold over the winter, dont know the exact temperature unfortunately. When i charged it up yesterday i could hear a noise coming from the PRV, so i put pressure on it and the noise ceased. So, it looks like i may have had a small leak. Think i'll give the PRV a clean

    Keeping CO2 level...

    Hi. I've got full corny keg that's been sitting in my shed for a couple of weeks. Tried some last night and the taste is a bit off IMO. I also thought it was a little flat. I've been going out to the shed every couple days and turned the co2 on, to 1 bar, after a short while I turn the gas off...

    Brewing Kveik IPA

    just room temp, i'm still relatively new to this brewing lark ;). think i'll invest a few quid in a turkey baster. Do you think i should wait till krausen disappears?

    Brewing Kveik IPA

    thanks for the tip. It has been sat in my fermenter for just shy of 2 weeks - I'm waiting for the krausen to disappear - it has gone down a lot, for 4in to probably 5-8mm. i'm tempted to keg it as fermentation seems to have well and truly stopped. I havent checked gravity yet - was waiting for...

    Brewing Kveik IPA

    Hi. I started my latest brew yesterday: Kveik IPA. I was told that the yeast is very lively - a friend of mine brewed this IPA before, and fermentation only took 2 days. I imagine mine will take at least a week When I do transfer to my corny, what pressure should I keep it at? Anyone have any...

    Of course, it helps if I attach the image.....

    Way too much head

    I took your advice, and this is the result. The only downside is it came out a steady trickle at that pressure, if only I could find a way to improve the flow. But I'm chuffed with the result. Thank you and cheers 🍺

    I shall do that tonight, I guess it'll take time for the beer to show signs of improvement

    Way too much head

    Looks good! If I've over carved my keg, is there a way to uncarb it, or is it a case of having to finish the keg - which I've got no problem with 🍺

    Way too much head

    Good suggestion, might invest in a proper tap, and get a mount 3d printed so I can mount the tap straight on the corny

    Way too much head

    I have removed the narrower tube. Now from the out post I have about 10in of 3/8 tube going straight into party tap. This has helped the time required to pour a drink, but still get a ridiculous amount of foam ☹️

    I'm using this setup. It's a 3/8 tube going down to 3/16 (I think)

    Way too much head

    Hi, After numerous posts on another thread, I' ve finally got my beer pouring out of my corny keg. But.....what I'm getting out of the party tap is a very slow pour, more of a trickle really. When I pour into a glass I get a ridiculous amount of foam! I'd guess about a 5:1 foam to beer ratio...

    Beer issues (again)

    All, yet again I'm having serious issues with my beer. Corny keg is pressurised, tubing/fittings all clean (when I did clean them, the disconnect had a build up in it -all gone). When I pull the trigger on the party tap there's a slight movement in the tubing, but no beer comes out . Does...
