Welcome back to brewing fella, Bottling is the bee's knees I think.... had some lovely brews from it... get your free bottles from the local along with a capper..

Welcome to brewing fella, don't worry it will all be marvellous...

Gutted without any doubt!

Most of the kits are able to be drunk after a week... they will not be at peak conditino but they will be drinkable.. at leas a month is best longer is better that is more or less it.. my best have been at least 3 months old before drinking and have been rather fab that is for sure!!

I would recommend bottling.. absolute piece of cake.. I struggle now with getting a little too much carb going on.... ordinary sugar is perfectly fine... some (many) would argue about the two can kits which are without doubt impressive but I am getting perfectly good results with single can...

I have a 2 lever capper and it is a winner but I haven't done many batches with it so a bench capper may well be on the way when I have the space.... no doubt hat using glass bottles and crown caps is better though.. so much more satisfying when you open them up!

Hello and happy brewing.. bottle sterilising is an arseache that's for sure, but so worth it I find enjoy!!

I wouldn't disagree with much that Steve has said except that I haven't found the little bottler to be very helpful, I find a syphon to be much simpler and faster.... plus you don't have to buy anything.. Each to their on and all that but I find that using my syphon I can charge along and do a...

Hello Stoo, happy brewing... its all good!

Welcome and happy brewing/drinking/falling over :)

Hello and happy brewing !!

Hey there, Welcome to the Forum and Happy brewing !

Robbarwell is spot on, so easy to have a couple of beers every night because they actually taste of something. had a number of weeks where I have had just a couple here and there and all of a sudden the couple seems to have become 5 pints for 4-5 nights in a week... no good for me that....
