It all depends on the bottles, some just float off after a few minutes in hot water, others use wd40 to get the glue residue off. For me the easiest way is chuck them in the bath and fill it full of hot water, give it an hour or so and what's left on the bottles comes off with a quick scour...

So, I have a full day off from work and all I have done is trawl over the the LHBS, Wilkes and round tesco to see what goodies they had. Since getting home I have been so busy I only just realised that it's half 9 :shock: Anyway here's the bit you might care about. I currently have 2 kilo of...

Oh definitely try it. One of my all time favourite sweets, can never seem to find them round here though :( or Yorkshire mixture

Yeah it is just a chlorine powder. Didnt know if there was a difference between home brew and normal. We use this at work for getting stains off of stainless steel. I'd rather use this up as its free before investing in starsan

I always return my glass, and others if they are done (or I want to move on ;) I know most of the managers around town being in the trade and I will go further than just taking my glasses back, I will clear other tables, sweep up broken glass. Throw the odd trouble causer out etc etc. Although...

Hi People, I have a bottle of this stuff http://www.yatesupplies.com/Products/Multisurface_Cleaner_Sanitiser/ECMIKROcalled Mikro Chlor. It says its a sanitizing powder. Just wondering if its ok to use on my FV's or should I stick with the usual suspects available at the LHBS, just though seeing...

I've only ever bottled as I tend to drink at other peoples houses so its easier to transport/give away. I have about 300 bottles in all shapes and sizes from britvic tonic bottles, Glass Coca Cola Bottles, Mangers, Cidre, Koppaberg, Bulmers, Loads of wine bottles, Sparkling water, 70cl and 1.5l...

Might seem weird Moley but it's definately the best one. The Champagne flavouring doesnt taste like champagne but its not far off. No tart pallette and slightly sweet. I'm sure you could give it a go ;)

I have finally got round to bottling my wash and have tried a few different products to flavour it. My friend owns a deli and very kindly loaned me a few ingredients to us. I have used.... Madagascan vanilla A few different flavourings by a company called Shepcote (never heard of them before...

I brewed mine at 8kg sugar and it took 12 days to reach a whopping 14% even though it was always around 24c. It tastes ok though. Gives you that warm belly feeling. Not sure I want to try another but im popping to my friends deli to pick up some ingredients for it this aftrrnoon (I prefer...

I really cant complain. I truly believe that its the thought that counts. And I did treat myself to a new fv a pilsner and a cervaza in the wilkos sale. And im popping to my friends deli to get some flavourings for my sugar wash today. Might even treat myself to the ingredients for my first AG...

Im definately not the christmassy type and dont expect much if anything. The other half got me a coffee machine. Used it before me then took it back cos they broke it. The mother got me a pasta maker which went straight in the cupboard with the toastie maker and bread machine although I might...

Was never any good at codes lol Will try again from home tomorrow

Just cracked open my first bottle of Ritchie's On the Rocks, raspberry and lime flavour cider and it's carbed well and tastes good. Still needs a little more time to condition but I'm very happy and thought I would show you the fruits of my labour

I would love to crack a bottle of my cider open this morning, but unfortunately I'm one of the guys that makes sure everyone else has a good Christmas meal so it won't be until I get home at 6 this evening :( Merry Christmas to you all and remember it's never too early but can sometimes be a...

Thanks for the reply, glad I'm not the only one to think of it lol. Merry Christmas to you.
