Thanks or taking the time to respond @ecirplan. Some great info there though as I said I've watched endless YouTube videos so I've seen some of these issues/choices discussed, and have a fairly fixed idea of how I want to start. I hear what you say about going straight to AG. My thinking is that...

Yes, bottling wand. My awkward newbie wording there. I would use CO2 if going down that route but the plan is to bottle as I want to see how the beer develops (for better or worse) over time I.e. weeks/months. Thanks. Yes, I have a stock of swing top bottles, bequeathed by a mate who’d been...

Hi All, Excellent forums - thanks. I'm a total newbie though I have watched tons of YouTube videos and read a lot on these forums, so I hope I'm getting a rough idea of what's in store. My plan is to start my brewing journey with some well regarded beer kits before possibly moving to...

For heaven's sake, when was that? 250 years ago? Has it not occurred to you that the world is a very different place now than it was in the days when America was a fragmented nation with no effective central government, no army, no police force, and where gangs of armed hoodlums confiscated land...

What's particularly impressive is to knock off 40 pints and still have the presence of mind to pop into the forum to report the fact. OTOH, that may not be a great advert for the beer in question...

For sentimental reasons -- beers that I associate with a time and a place -- I could nominate London Pride & Young's Special (1970s), Marston's Pedigree (1980s), Timothy Taylor's Landlord (1990s), West Berks Good Old Boy (early 2000s), and various obscure Swiss and German beers (last 10 years)...

OK, so it comes down to this - that you're OK with the violence, it's just a matter of how much violence. A violent slap is fine with you. With me, it's absolutely not. Context is everything. This was violence shown to a comedian on a stage because he said something that offended someone in the...

Well, that’s not really 'all he was doing' — he was physically assaulting someone into the bargain. Violence is rarely the answer to anything. By your logic he could have hit him with an axe and he would still be only defending his wife’s honour. The Oscars ceremony has a grim recent history of...
