    Buying grain locally

    Thanks. I've had a Google as regards to HBS and there's nothing local to me. I've had to order online for my last couple of brews which works out a lot when paying shipping costs. I think a trip to the local breweries should be my next stop

    Buying grain locally

    Yes our water here is soft. We both like ipa's and I don't think we are going to brew a stout any time soon. One thing I'm going to attempt in the next couple of months is harvesting yeast. I've been looking into it but don't feel confident enough yet lol

    Buying grain locally

    I did my first brew and bottled, started getting very interested and bought 4 corny kegs lol. We set up the kit temporary in my kitchen on 3 occasions and my dad offered to convert his shed to accommodate everything. We are still in the novice stage when it comes to paring grain and hops...

    Buying grain locally

    I went a bit mad when purchasing kit with my Dad and bought a grain father setup. I had to give up my business to look after the wife and kids due to an illness so spent some money on the brew equipment.

    That's Brilliant! Fingers crossed I will get some results this week. I'm a newbie as regards to brewing and I'm loving the hobbie also sharing with my dad so it's a good bonding session.

    I'm looking for advice as where I can purchase a 25kg sack of Maris otter close to the Swansea area. I've got quite a few hops in storage which I want to try out a few smash recipies to see which one I like the best. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

    Just come back from holidays and poured a pint from the corny keg. The brew has turned out very well and crystal clear! Can't wait to make a few more brews ready for the summer. This is a cut down version of the crafty brews mosaic

    Help on 4.1% ipa brew

    I managed to have my first go at closed transfer to a keg today. I transferred from the racking cane to the beer quick disconnect. On the carboy cap I installed a carbonation cap to connect the co2. I've been watching a couple of videos which says I can set co2 at 2 psi but found that if I kept...
