Afraid being an Process Engineer - I like process controls as this gives me good repeatable results. Although, there are still blood, sweat and tears involved in paying for the kit - which i had to have a serious talk with myself about...we agreed to buy it in the end as it was...shiney! :D

It brew's 23 ltr's 'approximately' - i get 1 ltr loss in the base and seem to end up with 22-23 ltrs at the end. They also do a 50 ltrs and 200 ltr unit :party: but i have no space to store either - unless i start a microbrewery and use it as an excuse to brew in larger quantities.

I have used spices and wanted to experiment with a nice twang of flavour - i have researched and some recommend for a hint of flavour in the background 5-7g of Star on 23 Ltrs should be just enough. 8% rule of thumb = 8 weeks = 2 months, but it will get better with age if i have any left i will...

I did call them back and they said they cannot let me have the gas as a home user UNLESS i brought thier CO2 safety monitoring kit for 'Health & Safety' reasons. I think i mentioned this on the forum at one point. Anyway finally i managed to get to Eastern Gases Whalebone Road North Romford -...

Well as its a nice sunny day and SWMBO has just cleaned the kitchen i decided to crack on with a brew for some of my collegues whom I have been promising for ages to let them sample my brews and i think i can just about manage it - hopefully this will turn them away from the evils of tasteless...

You can find a clip here on how to carbonise beer if this is what your interested in doing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eIAWGzgqthI

I had 70gms at the end. Dry hopping only adds aroma, not bitterness.

Dry hopping is a good idea!

Be good to see how your version of the clone goes. Mine is now drinkable and i must say that it lacks body, but everything else is there. Not a bad first attempt at a Wherry Clone. Mine as i posted was from websites where staff and owners had posted some pointers on the percentage of grain used...

Thanks mate

17 I'm too young to remember some older brews :tongue:

These are my recent steeds, being a former MC Instructor and generally an old fart when it comes to touring comfort i always have tourers. 2003 Touring France and Italia on my trusty Pan. 2005 ST1300 with some lively colours, unfortunately some gits stole it and it was never seen again...

Perhaps a trailer?

Let us know how it goes!

I used to work at that Brewery in Blandford St Mary many years ago. It may interest you to know at the time i was there they made the normal bitter, Tanglefoot, PIMM's and Panda Pops - perhaps they have found some of their ingredients from the materials from their other divisions. I might pop...

IPA thanks - Can you post the mash schedule used? I too am a Braumeister convert.

Well nearly a month on i tried half a pint last night. It is a little cloudy, but ok. Taste is soft at first and then the taste of the bobeks comes storming thru. The slight acidic taste afterwards is now fading and i think with another month in the keg that will reduce to nothing. I am happy...

Post away you have some followers on here whom would dearly like to try it!

I removed the vane it and dried after the first use, checked it for the second brew and found a lot of mold inside the rotor vanes. I now take it out sanitize and dry it thoroughly before storage and before use again. I store mine inside at about 18-20 Deg so there should have been no moisture...
