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...

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...

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...

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...

I'm looking at my next brew, I'm thinking Muntons Hazy IPA, or Mangrove Jacks Juicy Session IPA. Once fermentation is complete, I plan to transfer into my barrel. I've looked at the instructions and they mention bottling. Can it be put in the barrel instead? Also, with my first kit, the priming...

Hi, I'm coming to the end of my current brew (Young's American style IPA), and so am looking for my next. I would like to stick to an IPA, maybe citrus hint........I'm open to suggestions........ Anyone have any recommendations???

Hi, I'm new to homebrewing. With my first brew I chose to make American Style IPA. I followed the directions on the Young's homebrew pack. My first issue began with the airlock - I wasn't getting any bubbles. After a week or so I had to open the fermenter to see if there was any activity, and...
