Hi everyone, when I brew I usually find a recipe and buy the grains, hops and yeast separately and put all the ingredients into brewfather with the hopcat 30l profile to find out the mash and sparge water quantities. Now I've bought 2 kits from dark rock. The instructions says 20 litres mash and...

Hi, yes it's dry yeast. The use by date is next year. It's in the fridge now. Cheers.

Ha, good luck.

Good idea, will do. Cheers.

Cheers will do.

Ok thanks Tom, I'll get them brewed. Cheers.

Hi everyone, I bought a couple of all grain kits a couple of months ago, (might be longer) that I still haven't brewed cause other things got in the way. Would they stiil be ok to brew. Its all been kept dry in the box but I haven't stored the yeast in the fridge or the hops in the freezer...

Niceone, thanks for the quick reply. I've got the fridge, the inkbird and the heater. I've just got to put it all together. Life's got in the way lately. Have a good Sunday. Cheers.

Hi Foxy, is that the same in a fermentation fridge aswell? Or is the temp sorted in there? Should I just tape the inkbird sensor onto my fermenter for the best result? Cheers.

Thanks for the links. Cheers.

Thanks for all the help. I'll bottle it tomorrow and then forget about it for a bit. Cheers.

Hi, its this recipe https://www.thehomebrewforum.co.uk/threads/centennial-brown-ale.53514/ The only thing I changed was the crystal 40 to caramunich 2. I hit the og and final gravity. Its a wierd one. Cheers.

Thanks for the replys. I'll bottle it then and leave it for a couple of months see how it improves . It was gonna go down the plughole so it's had a pardon. Cheers.

Ha, I had one yesterday. Negative.

Hi, I don't know if anyone's experienced this or can explain it it to me. I brewed clibits centennial brown ale a couple of weeks ago and when I tasted it at the time putting it in the fermenting bucket it had a nice taste to it. Fast forward 2 weeks and I was testing the abv for the final...

Hi @clyne, I had a bottle of the Orkney dark island reserve clone last night. It was lovely. I think its the best thing I've brewed thus far. Its been about 8 weeks in the bottle up till now. I'll try and leave a few bottles another few weeks and see how it goes. Cheers for the recipe.

No problem, I used 200ml in the end and left it for 4 days in the fermentation bucket. It's been bottled for 2 weeks now. It tasted lovely when I bottled it. Fg was 9.98. Abv. I'll open a bottle at Christmas. Looking forward to it. Cheers.

OK thanks for the quick reply. I hope I'll learn as I go. Cheers.

Thanks for the infos everyone, really helpful. If I have more than one keg what do I need on each keg so I can just disconnect the co2 then reconnect to the other keg. I hope that makes sense. Cheers.

Hi, thanks for the reply. How do I know when my beer is carbonated? And once its carbonated and I disconnect the co2 will it stay carbonated.? Sorry for all the questions, I haven't got a clue about it. Cheers.
