Any other suggestions please?

I got 25 bottles from my last batch, but I had to rack 3 times because I had a big blob of sediment in the tap!

Thanks for your help. 500ml PET, I've used them again and they were fine

Thanks again The kit comes with 150g of priming sugar. All the bottles were the same completely flat. What about turning the heat off while the dry hops do their thing?

About two weeks. I'm batch priming and mixing the sugar really well. Mine are also in the utility room, but it has a radiator, so it's pretty warm

Thanks for the reply. I bring the bottles into the house for the secondary fermentation

I started a Festival Vienna Red Larger on Wednesday. The Specific Gravity is now 1.008. The kit says to add the dry hops after 5 days and leave the hops in the bucket for another 5 days. The problem is, last time I did this, I had no secondary fermentation at all. I had moved the beer into the...

Brilliant, thanks for all the replies. Just have source a pot now

Thanks for that. It's far more complicated than I ever imagined.

Think we've got one of them somewhere. Thanks

Thank you very much. Watched the video, just ordered a Refractometer. Might have a go next weekend. Thanks for offering to help via PM. I'll take you up on the offer

Brilliant, thank you

Thanks for that. Example for sugar solution: 400 ml with 100 g sugar so if I am using 1500 ml of water would that be 1200 g of sugar? Sorry if that sounds a daft question, but I really have no idea what I'm doing

Morning all I want to calibrate my iSpindel and I've looked at some guides, but they all seem to be for 500ml of water. The only container I have that will fit the iSpindel is a 2lt water bottle, so if I put 1.5 litres of water in it, will i need to add triple the amount of sugar? Thanks
