Hope someone here can reassure me of my intended process. Ill be following David Heaths Golden Sour recipe and process as below. Ill be making 50L in a B80 - Mash and sparge as normal. - boil 5 mins - cool to 35C in the B80 - adjust pH to 4.5 with lactic acid - add 10 capsules of Swansons (for...

Sour pitch seems to be sold out everywhere. Im about to try my first attempt at a Sour following david heaths guide here for a solera sour (I made a foeder to try this). As its my first attempt at a sour I thought Id just follow the recipe exactly to make it easy. Crossmyloof do sour 3.5 dry...

I move it from the sideboard onto a wooden cart I adapted for it, attach all the valves, tubing etc and ready to use in about 15 mins.

Thanks for the comments. I only started using triclamps when I bought the Brewtools B80, all the external valves, pipework, chiller, etc are connected with 34mm tri-clamps. Due to space I need to disassemble everything after each brew to store it then re-assemble each brewday. Ive found the...

First Foeder almost complete, just waiting the triclamp fitting for the top flange. I used a 50L barrel (couldnt find 100L) so decided Id make the first one then once its up and running Ill make a second one. I already know a few modifications Ill do for the second one. I put the transfer port...

I just fancied something different. Also I had planned to not have temp control and wood would have much better insulation so smaller temp fluctuations

Thanks, I saw that one and had assumed it was out of stock as it was the Foeder smith one, but closer inspection it seems to be a different model. Ill maybe contact TMM and see when they expect it back in stock. Still fancy trying to make one myself if its not going to be too tricky getting the...

both are links if you hover over them, they are working for me.

I have been watching David Heaths series of videos on youtube about fermenting in a foeder and fancied getting one and trying the solera sour method he describes in his videos. Only issue is Foeder Smith who made the foeder in his videos have gone bust and I cannot find anywhere to buy a foeder...

I bought 2 of these disposable gloves holder but screwed them to the wall. I glued the magnets that came with them (8 total) to my drip tray and it holds solid. 4 would probably still hold it fine.

Totally agree. It also prevents any mistakes such as over-carbing a keg or connecting something wrong and losing a load of beer. I have secondary regulators for each keg, depending on the style I set the pressure when I put the keg in and leave it till the keg is empty. Occasionally Ill adjust...

Just bottled mine from the keg and will get them in the post tomorrow.

I guess you have a floating dip tube then? Did you weigh it down with a SS nut or similar? It is a fairly common issue that the inlet to the dip tube floats on the surface and sucks in the CO2 from above the beer, you should be able to see if this is happening when you pull a pint off it.

Just tried my two and pretty chuffed with them. I'll fill some bottles and get them sent out next week

Pick them out with a small flat screwdriver and replace with spring poppets like this Keg Poppet Valve. I bought a big bag of them from china for about a tenner but cant find a link now, I replaced all the poppets in my 12 kegs. They make it much easier to clean than the standard type and if any...

Just came in stock now, I have my order in. Not sure how many they have but Im guessing they will be popular

Fingers on buttons tomorrow!!! I see it has gone up to £270 now, hope I dont miss out again.

Sodium Percarbonate/Oxygen Bleach Stain Remover Home Brew Laundry TUB 500g-20kg | eBay I buy 20kg at a time then decant into 1L takeaway style tubs and stash all but a few on a top shelf, then replenish as needed.

Ive been checking on availability a couple of times a day as I dont want to miss out when they come back in stock (I suspect they will sell out very quickly). The EU grainfather store has had them in stock a couple of times over the past few weeks but there is no option for delivery to the UK...

Im just saying if they have zero customer support and there is no way to even get in contact with them then they are not a business worth supporting. If they disappear then another company which supports their customers will take its place. Poor customer service is bad for business, non existent...
