There's tons of celebrity pedophiles out there, Andrew is nothing special. But Boris is a monumental embarrassment. Even with his great power (and great responsibility) he's managed to **** it right up. I'd love to see him go but all the potential replacements make me dream of Theresa throwing...

If I owned that car I'd probably park like a knob as well.

I bought a sheet of mild steel via lazermaster. Ended up about £30 (half of which was shipping) and they will cut to specific dimensions, so you can have it fit your oven racks perfectly. They'll even round the corners of you want. 6mm thick is about right, not too heavy to move but holds plenty...

Had a slow end to the year but managed a little batch of Mango IPA in November, only bottled 6 litres as I had so much trouble with the trub. Every little helps though :laugh8: (Just checked and I never totted up a batch of pseudo-lager I made in the summer, so add another 15L) 29,361 L

I drink with a chap who likes his beer 'warm' and does exactly this. Doesn't help with the first drink but if you buy a round ahead it gives the next one time to warm up a bit.

If we're making hydrogen from renewable energy anyway then why not just power the trucks directly? No idea if it is but it seems like it would be more efficient.

As someone who regularly uses poorly tested software I also say things like 'this shouldn't have been released' 🤣

The PP logo means poly-propylene which is food safe too. You should be good to go.

Had to use one in an emergency once when I miscalculated how much I need to get home, put in just enough to get to my local garage though so at least I didn't have to pay full whack for a full tank... I just had a raise, which is good as otherwise I might have been tempted to walk the 20 miles...

If he's making F1 car parts I doubt they're worrying about the cost! Any recommendations on where to get stuff printed affordably? I've love to give mucking around with CAD and 3D printing a go...

I made an ESB a few months back and it was too bitter to start with, but it was pretty good after a month and it's even better after two. If you can just let it mellow and it will likely improve. If you need to drink it quick then blending is probably your best option.

The weird thing is that generally you'd assume this would be catastrophic - yet Boris is as easy to pin down as a greasy fish... I had a visceral reaction to that clip - how can anyone be so heartless? Even weirder that he's proud of wage growth when all I ever see is headlines about...

This post! Once I realised you can sing it to 'The 12 Days of Christmas' my day was made.

She's wasn't wrong was she. And while impolite I don't think her characterisation of Boris as scummy is unfair given his history...

It definitely exists but if you bottle carefully with a bottling wand you can avoid most of the common issues fairly easily. My preferred routine is to use a door-stop to raise the tap side of the fermenter and give the beer a day or two to settle toward the end of fermentation (cold crash not...

For what it's worth I'd vote for you

Do I want pensioners to pay for a service that is specifically aimed at pensioners? Probably mate, yeah. Edit: to clarify, I would like wealthy pensioners who are able to, to pay a larger proportion of the burden of social care for the elderly. Mostly on the basis that today's youth have...

I've had about 10% trub in batches where I was pretty sloppy about not transferring it from the boil. As long as it's below the level of the tap it won't cause you any trouble (trubble?). Best way to avoid this is to let everything settle for a while (30 min?) after the boil and then transfer...

My first beer was a Maris Otter & Mosaic SMaSH and it was great. I keep meaning to have another crack at it now that I've got a few more brews under my belt, but that flavour combo really works and I've seen it recommended many times across a few boards like this. Edit: In fact I think it was...

I'm on day 3 of fermentation with Verdant and only ever got about an inch of krausen, most of which seems to have fallen back now. It's currently in the garage so I thought I might bring it in for a few days to bring the temperature up a bit. I don't normally cold crash either but I thought I'd...
