@Buffers brewery I really like your setup here. Especially your bubbler attachment. I need something like that, with no space for a bubbler on my FV in the brew fridge.

Sorry, a bit off topic, but while you apple experts are reading this thread: If you were juicing or pressing just for apple juice, would you still add the campden tablet to the juice (and wait 24hrs before drinking)? The juice I pressed onto a campden for cider was lovely and clear and looked...

Thanks for all the cider advice folks. I've got 3 demijohns on the go at the moment, so I might try bottling one batch straight from the primary, and see how much matter I get at the bottom of the bottles. And one batch into secondary with a top up of either supermarket juice or maybe some from...

I like the idea of 'interim glugging'

Supermarket juice top up is a great tip thanks. Do you mean I should top up my primary FV now, or do you mean if I racked to a secondary I should top up then? Thanks.

This is my 1st year making cider from apples, so I'm not really sure what I'm doing. I am in the same situation (but smaller scale). I have 3 demijohns filled up to the shoulder with apple juice fermenting away nicely. I'd read that there can be problems with headspace after fermentation, and...

Nice. I'd love to do something like that. Some classic stuff. Resi 1 and 2 were also amazing games.

I loved Tenchu.

Same. I was playing Odyssey last night, and it suddenly flipped back to modern day. I'd forgotten it was all in the Animus. I rushed through the dull modern day bit to get back to Ancient Greece as quickly as I could. But it got me thinking about whether the Animus is a metaphor for gaming...

I'll definitely be getting this. I heard that some AC fans are not happy that the series is turning more RPG than traditional Assassin's Creed. But I like all that character development and customisation.

So how is Valhalla? As awesome as expected?

OK, I had to pass your question on to my boys, cos I had no idea how they did it. We were in creative mode, and you need elytra (some kind of wings), and fireworks. Jump in the air and activate the fireworks, and you are flying. I think. Good luck. If you can get it working it is awesome.

I've got the PS4 VR. It is really amazing the first time you put it on and find yourself in a game. Skyrim VR is one of the best examples, I just spend time wandering around looking at stuff. Only problem I find is that most of the VR games make me feel very nauseous, very quickly. How do you...

Thanks for that. I'll play it safe and go horizontal then. Was just for convenience really. With it horizontal under the FV, my FV gets pushed up a bit too high to fit a bubbler. Not a big problem though.

Minecraft with the PS4 VR headset is fantastic. The kids set me up with some flying contraption and I could jet around the Minecraft landscape. I think I may have been screaming out loud at one point. o_O

@Chippy_Tea I never had you down as a gamer. Nice one. Assassins Creed is one of my favourites too, and I am looking forward to Valhalla. Assassins Creed + Vikings = Awesome. Ghost of Tsushima is on my list too. We could add our gamertags to this thread?

The instructions for my little 1ft tube heater for my fermentation fridge say 'must be installed horizontally'. It would fit my fridge better if i could install vertically up the side of the fridge. What do you think? Would it be dangerous to install it vertically?

Selling my almost new fruit press. £30. Pick up from North Leeds It's a 6L one from Woodside. Includes straining bag. Nice compact size, but can do enough juice for a 4.5L batch of cider in 2 presses. Been used twice. It works great, but selling as my other half has just bought a juicer, which...

Thanks. This is the exact same question, about the exact same recipe, that I was just about to ask. So just sub golden syrup for light candi crystals (gram for gram?) in Greg Hughes Christmas Ale recipe. Now to find the other stuff: star anise, cinnamon sticks, and ground nutmeg. Not the kind...

I think that Undead pale Ale might be a clone of Zombie Dust by Three Floyds. I've not tried the original but did this clone ('Zombie Dirt') from Northern Brewer. It was lovely. I think i just used Maris Otter instead of Rahr 2-row. Does this look similar to the Morton recipe?
