Woodfordes Wherry with Safeale S-05,is up next,going to brew it short and add a bag of Youngs Brew Enhancer to raise the ABV,then put it in a barrel,should be brewing that tomorrow,when the wife+little one are out!.After that,I have not quite made my mind up,another 'quicky' lager probably...

Not bad!,not bad at all!,I have to admit,I ended up drinking about 10,which I said I wouldn't do!.Then I started on them again a couple of days later...:lol:Still have about 20 left,which I WILL give another week,before finishing them off!.All in all,compared to my attempts in the 80's,actually...

I will be trying mine in a minute!,2 weeks in the FV,cold crashed,bottled 9-10 days ago using a tsp of granulated per 500ml Coopers PET bottles,conditioned at 20 C.Now have a couple chilling in the fridge....I will leave the rest for another week.First brew for 30 years!.

AHHH!,the 80's!, twas a time of much drinking and pool playing for a pint merriment! (and nearly getting killed for it,on many more than one occasion),whilst sauntering around in a pink pastel cardigan,lime green Lacoste polo shirt, speckled drainpipes,and light grey slip-ons,smelling like I...

LOL!,I am sure it was 9% about 10 years ago,I remember I encoraged a new girlfriend there on a 1st or 2nd date,and I ended up drinking about 8 pints...needless to say,she drove home....:-D I think I will 'encourage' the wife (not the GF mentioned above BTW) to drive us to the 'Fur & Feather' in...

I am new to 'hopping',so I will have to do a bit of homework!.It is only my second brew...LOL!.

Thanks for that!.I was wondering wether brewing short,AND adding a kilo of BE would be going overboard and end up with the end product tasting foul!....I only live 2-3 miles away from the Woodfordes brewery,and TBH my favourite brews of theirs are the stronger ones:-D.A few years ago,their...

Did you make it up to the 23 litre/40 pint mark?,or did you make it up with less water?.

My next brew is going to be the Wherry kit,have got the safale US-05 yeast,and I have also got a 1kg pack of Youngs Brew Enhancer (spray malt/dextrose),to throw into the mix,I was thinking of only adding enough bottled water to bring it to 20 litres in total to raise the ABV,would this be a good...

Cheers for the info!.I have a brew fridge,and I have just ordered a pack of the Safale US05....:whistle:

WOW!,I am lucky there!,only just started on mine!.Hopefully I will get as much use from mine,as you have from yours!. As far as it is cheaper to produce a 'cloudy' barrel than a clear one,Im not too sure....I cannot imagine it would cost much more to make a clear one TBH. I for one would...

I would like to know why ALL FV's are not made out of clear plastic like the Coopers one?,it makes life a whole lot easier to be able to see whats going on,instead of relying on an airlock.(I have both the Coopers FV,and the Youngs FV,Have not used the Youngs yet,might just use it for a bottling...

Well,I connected up a sterilised syphon tube to the tap of the Coopers keg in readiness to take the first gravity reading on day 10. Im well happy!,it came in at 3.5%ABV,and I am sure it still fermenting!.Going to leave it 4 days,take another reading,then when its ready,add the finings,then give...
