Did mine at around 21c if I remember correctly :hat:

Says on his location Coxy - Brighouse! :hat:

You probably won't like the Razorback then, the Golden stag is a light hoppy slap where as the Razorback is a jolly good hop punch. :hat:

Roll on Christmas hey Joey! might be somewhere near by then! :hat:

+1 Mine took 14 days at 20c in the brew fridge, so i waited till it had reached its FG before adding the hop pellets and left them in for 5 days as the instructions suggest then syphoning to a second FV and bottled. I did this because I made the Festival Razorback and added after 5 days but...

I would go for A although a week in the warm should be enough and then the rest in the cool clearing and conditioning. :hat:

Or build a brew fridge and brew what you want, when you want!:hat:

The brew fridge set at 19 c and it took around 7 days to get to its final gravity, i have just split the brew and syphoned to secondary FVs to dry hop. If you have the space a brew fridge is great as it takes the temperature fluctuation out of the process plus cuts down on the earache from...

Just finished the last bottle of this and here are my thoughts, it started off a little watery and a bit thin in the early samples but after around six weeks in the bottle it improved to be a really nice pint, good maltiness and not too bitter. If I was to do it again i think i would maybe add...

I would add the hop pellets after it has fermented out and leave them in for the length of time it states on the instructions to avoid them being in the brew too long and adding extra bitterness. I syphoned mine to a second fv and left it to settle on a cold floor for a few days before bottling...

It was a Muntons beer enhancer bought in a wilco sale, I also have the Mexican cervesa kit waiting to be made (wilco sale £5 last year) I will probably do some mods to it not sure what at the moment though. I have a Wherry on the go in the brew fridge that i am going to split 50/50, 50%...

The golden Ale is a really good kit i have done it twice, once brewed short to 21lt and second to 23 lt with the addition of 500g of brew enhancer. The latter turned out the best, i have another one to do which i may dry hop with citra. The Real ale was a little disappointing to start with I...

I brewed the Bulldog and festival pretty much as the instructions the only change i made with the Bulldog was to add the hop pellets after the brew had fermented out. The hops were in the brew for the time stated on the instructions, I did this as the manufacturers always seem to be a little...

Bulldog Rajas Reward is a superb brew but if you want hoppy go for the Festival Razorback IPA huge hoppyness! :hat:

Evening Chaps, I am going throw another IPA into the ring it is the Bulldog Rajas reward. I have brewed both the Festival Razorback and the Bulldog and in my opinion both very good but the Bulldog was a much more balanced quaff, i felt the Razorback was a little over hopped in that the...

Tried my carbonation tester bottle last week and was pleasantly surprised didnt think it tasted like alcoholic fruit juice, will see what difference a couple of weeks make.

Would love one, my LHBS has a 50L version it is a beauty! Probably a future purchase will see how brewing with an electrim goes first.:hat:

Yes i agree they don't seem to have the spiciness of the Belgium ales, I made the Grand Cru which i had high hopes for but i am still waiting for it to hit the mark it just tastes quite alcoholic to me, while the strong Belgium ales i have bought don't taste all that alcoholic. I dry hopped the...

I wouldn't worry about it Redron it is probably from the hops you dry hopped with, I have had the same with another brew and it looked pretty bad but turned out fine.:hat:

I've done a few Brewferm kits also but mine tasted quite different from one another especially the Oranje bock, maybe the ones you have done are a similar style?:hat:
