Christ.....it's pretty

Shiney Shiney...I want one :pray:

I use that one all the time for my beer (its the only one I have). Apart from needing a long arm to get in and clean I'd also recommend you get yourself a tap to make bottling/transfer alittle easier as syphoning is a pain tap and bottler why do clickys never work for me ? :hmm:

I have been dabbling with the idea of beer labels but my laziness always gets in the way :( any hints or ideas on how you came up with your labels. :wha: An excellent job by the way well done :clap:

I had mine over Christmas both in bottles and in the cornie. I loved it but must say the bottles were better due to high carbonation levels. I'm still struggling to get my cornie carbonation levels correct but of all the lager variants I've tried this has to be one of the best. My BIL (brother...

I have got great information from this site http://www.hbkitreviews.com/ (can never get those clicky's to work correctly) :hmm:

I had the same problem I ended up with an FG of about 1016. I have brewed the Brewferm Pils (20lt) before and that ended up on the high side as well. That turned out to be very nice after 8 weeks in the bottle. The abbey I just batch primed and bottled about a month ago, no exploding bottles...

Very nice :clap: ...hope you have a large lock ...on the inside of the door ;)

Cheers ...thats now top of my list :cheers:

60 kegs...15 months.............LEGEND :clap:

Great name :thumb:

Thanks :thumb:

Just a question but what if it was a corny, could you not prime using sugar or is this not the done thing as you would prime with co2 anyway ??. I just got some new corny's and have an ale in primary. Should I just rack to the corny condition for a month or two and then pressurise prior to...

Thanks to the advice and info on this forum I'm off to pick up my corny's from Norm tomorrow morning :thumb: now all I have to do is fill them :shock: ...Standby for a Tsunami of questions about AG and the dark side :hmm:

Thanks for the reply :thumb:
