    Is my stc1000 on its last legs?

    Is it easy for you to bypass the stc ? I'm not sure of your setup. There's a starting relay on fridge compressors, which can go dicky . It could be causing the issue rather than the stc . Next time you have a problem with the fridge compressor, try plugging powering the fridge directly, this...

    Air wedge

    I bought them at the time as a locksmith mate had told me they're very handy for opening a locked car , a neighbour had locked their child accidentally in their car . He slipped the air wedge between the door and the roof , and pumped it enough to get a tool in to unlock the door

    Fridge advice

    You're right, some fridges have a loop from the condenser circuit on the back of the fridge, running through the side panels, and around the door frame to heat the door seal. This makes the fridge easier to open . It's usually on more expensive models, but.its easy to check for, as the door...

    Petrol bombs thrown at police.

    They've plastered over the cracks in the last 25 years , no real progress since , my opinion only , on a recent radio programme it was quoted that 25 years ago , 6% of Northern Ireland schools were integrated , 25 years later its , wait for it......... 7%

    Northern Ireland terrorism threat level rises

    The hilarious thing is I am or was at one stage , Church Of Ireland , but I had no interest in educating the bigot

    Northern Ireland terrorism threat level rises

    In my opinion it needs to start with integrated education , and very slowly take it from there . I visited a unionist area a while ago, we went in for a beer and some lunch , the barman came over rubbing his hands, "Afternoon gentlemen , what can I get you?" When he heard our accents he...

    Brewuk website "down for maintenance"

    I suspect like a lot of the homebrew shops , Brexit has had a negative impact on their businesses. I have bought a fair amount of SS Brewtech stuff from them over the years, but since brexit has kicked in, its now sadly prohibitive cost wise, to buy from any of them , if you're based outside...

    Keg filling question please

    One more tip, having gone to the trouble of minimising oxygen pick up, don't push the tube full of air into the keg when you start filling . Ie make sure the line you're going to fill the keg with, is full of beer, before you connect it to the keg .

    Details on using beer gas.

    Dalton's gas law is your friend here, the total gas pressure of a mixed gas is the sum of the partial gas pressures . So if for example your gas regulator is set to 30psi, and if your gas is 70:30, then 70% of the pressure is applied by nitrogen and 30% is applied by CO2. So it's the equivalent...

    Attaching black attachments and undoing them from corny leg

    The grey disconnect fits both as the gas post is slightly larger. If the black disconnect is connected to the gas post , it takes a fair bit of pulling to remove it. I use green and red O rings on the keg posts . G for Gas , G for green and G for Grey . So the grey disconnect goes on the gas...

    Free Scotland

    I reckon with open arms , a United Europe is far better than a divided one. I think most Europeans can distinguish between Boris Johnson and his version of the Tories and the UK and it's people in general. The pound sterling might be a stumbling block , but I'd personally rather see the UK back...

    Free Scotland

    I wonder is it that if Scotland were given a second chance at a referendum, then perhaps others might demand a second vote on another more recent referendum

    First all Grain bitter

    There's a Spanish Association called ACCE (Asociación de Cerveceros Caseros Españoles) they've a forum and usually there's local groups. I've met up with the lads in malaga a couple of times . There's an annual Congreso, next year it's in Pamplona , where they've usually a three day convention ...
