but still four times bigger than i would need, but still may go down that route. the cost of each v-vessel unit is only £100. its the P+P that sucks!!!

Cleaning would be a prohibitive reason for me buying one, always find a way. They look really easy to use, just detach the bulb from the bottom and slip another clean one in, simple. I have got a reply back from them, more than the cost of the vessle, but at around £220 it still viable...

these look pretty good by v vessel, even tho they're not shiney i still want one http://newstore.vvessel.com/

thought i'd post up with an easily searchable title for future users. This whole thing is a learning curve, a very enjoyable one I might add :cheers:

Just writing up my thoughts on the plastic demijohn's available as a cheap alternative. I wanted to get a 5 demijohn for racking purposes, plus they look kinda cool all lined up. I have seen the advertised and on sale from Brewers Droop in bristol. At £2.99 for the bottle, cap and grommet...

its usualy "recommended" you add 1 tsp per pint, but experiement. For the 1lt bottles this would be around a tsp and a half, but try a few with 1.5tsp, 1tsp, 1/2tsp. Some people dont prime their bottle, allowing long conditioning to produce a mild carbonation. I'm still experiementing with my...

I was thinking about getting a boiler fabricated, well three or four, all depends if its feasible. How much would it cost for a 25cm D x 65cm H, approx dimensions, cheers

They're very efficient well designed water boilers. There is an internal copper insert inside the main casing, the first half of the boiler is like a kelly kettle/storm kettle in that it has a thin chamber around a chimney then expands to a larger reservoir. so the water in the thin jacket...

Arrrr its a sad day, counted my chickens too early. their not suitable at all. I will see if i can do some bodging if not they're goin onthe bay, gona keep on for a cool plant pot. Well you take a risk and sometimes get burnt, they would have made a awesome line up of heater, mashtun, boiler...

not sure about pics, they may be TOO shiney, but i'll try. I'm swaying between positive and negative at the mo, arrrr too small, not water tight, or oooow shiney shiney shiney and big to brew, time will tell even if they are small at say 15/20lt they look cool as funk, james brown would be...

looking forward to seeing it come alive oh yer when your drilling one handed while filming dont suppose you could do it on a rockin chair could ya?, possibly in the dark?

Got some shiney's on the way :D not very converntional, but i like them there are four of them, nearly all identical. Their mains filled water boilers, opposed to manual filling with a jug/tap. Think the water is dispensed under pressure so will have to bodge in from the back. Dont...

picky, before i knew about all grain, i'd be well up for it, great way to get people into it, fun for the family

it was a unpleasaent suprise to find out lager yeast smells like rotten eggs when fermenting, :sick: keep it well out of the way. I'm doing a coopers european lager at then mo and it says it should be matured for 12 weeks before tasing :o gona be a while having that hanging about. don...

give up, no no no no, dont be silly more beer, more experimenting. I got some wheat spraymalt, so will give that a go. just wanted to give a honest review, wasnt impressed with it at all. have heard great things bout woodfordes, next on my list, but have some boilers arriving soon so kits...

Your lucky stew, not every can shoot their quarry!!! spot on. Bring on self sufficiency in all its forms and all its glory, maybe beer, veg, meat or tufo

Been drinking a bit more of this and its making me think about beer, funny that aint it :roll: guess its a harsh review of sorts. When poured it didnt have any head to speak of, not that IPA is renowned for a bit head, but were talking zero. the bubbles are, well, very bubbly, what you would...

7 quid a pop, that'd be nice, nar there buy two mater class then each cost £12 each, so £24 for two. wish they were that cheap!!! i'll pop up the link when I can find it
