    The Great Watney's debate

    I remember someone piercing a "keg" of this in someone's kitchen. Given he'd walked there with it under his arm it was lively to say the least and left a memorable stain on the ceiling. If I recall rightly, you had to pierce them on opposite sides at the same time to equalise the pressure and...

    Hello- first forays into All Grain

    The original tap on the Peco is rubbish. I've swapped the one on mine for a better (metal) one and fitted a bazooka. I also bought a false bottom that keeps the bag off the element and strains the wort when running off into the FV. Not much gets through that lot! Might also be worth upping your...

    Extract vs AG (Savings)

    All Grain Brew - Topping Up With Water

    There's a very good description of that method on @MyQul 's brew days I think. Speaking of whom, is he OK? Not heard from him in a while.

    Cost of Beer Kits

    Your temperature control is already taken care with a heat mat and Inkbird. Sparging is just irrigating the mashed grain to get the last of the sugar out. I dunk sparge in a separate FV (and by that I mean I put the grain bag in the other FV and literally dunk it for a while).

    Covid the *** and the final stage.
