Hey guys, I recently got a small co2 tank from BOC and a co2 regulator off ebay. I tried to fit it today and I cant get it to catch on there it jumps off after about 3/4 of a turn so Im guessing that the regulator I bought doesn't have the correct size nut for the tank. Is there anywhere...

I used a small bottle of Kefir drink (150ml but don’t use it all) from Sainsbury’s last Friday. Made a 1.040 1ltr starter 48 hours before, left it by the boiler pipes to keep warm. After pitching, it took my wort down to 3.2 ph in just over 24 hours which I had also forgotten to acidify first...

Thanks gave them a call before but unfortunately they only deal with businesses Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for that I checked them out but tells me the local supplier are London gasses that I called before. I might just get a sodastream for the time being until I find the right deal Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The refill prices seem the same as they always are it’s just delivery or deposit charges seem to vary so much. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey guys can anyone recommend a good co2 supplier in East London preferably near Walthamstow or with delivery options? I can only store a small tank and have been quoted £70 (non-refundable deposit) plus £30 per refill for 3.15kg tank from London gasses (oddly it’s still £30 to refill a 6kg...

Thanks for that I figured there must have been some sort of cheaper version. I’ve had a look on AliExpress and might get two different mesh sizes and daisy chain. It looks like the micron size is about as fine as the blue size for the bouncer filter and then you can go finer still. Do you find...

Hey highs just wondering if anyone has some experience with this filter? I’m looking for a filter that I can put on the racking port on my conical so I can bottle directly from the fermenter without excessive hop material when making hoppy beers. I usually filter through a mesh bag into a...

My finishing gravity on my last 2 brews has been 1.014 and 1.015 I had adjusted my mash temp to 67.5 and added 15-20% flaked oats as I wanted a big juicy body. Also added calcium chloride. These gravity readings were held for at least a week before bottling. As for tubing I replaced all my...

Ok thanks I’ll try that next. I’ll also try hop bags if I’m going to bottle straight from the fermenter as I won’t get to filter them out like I do when I use the bottling bucket. So just checking incase I’m still missing something. Is it most likely the yeast/hop material that is causing my...

Thanks guys. I didn’t realise that low flocculating yeasts and excessive sediment could cause bottle gushers? Apart from cold conditioning for longer would it benefit from fining with gelatine? As for priming in the fermentation vessel would this not disturb the trub even more? Or should I...

Hey guys been on here for a while and never felt like I needed to ask a question with the amount of knowledge already on here. But I’ve been having some issues since Jan this year and to be honest Im near giving up on hoppy beers as Its costing me a lot of money and is a bit soul destroying...
