Only reason I ask is I seen a review on partridge kit reviews on YouTube last night and they had a side by side with a bottle and keg and said the keg was much better, I only have pressure barrels but only have one free and also have the Young’s American ipa which I was going to pb

Hi Stockport1 I am in no means an expert, but dependant on how long it has been in the fv I would be tempted to leave it a couple more days. I would imagine you would be looking at a 1010 fg

Great thanks would you advise bottle or pressure barrel?

Any advice on wether this is better in a bottle or pressure barrel king keg top tap?

How did the mangrove jacks rye ipa turn out Boy Ugh the the kit and wanting to hear what people thought of it?

I have now purchased along with a few others The juicy ipa which I will brew in spring And the Young’s ipa and Cwtch by tiny rebel both in fvs atm and hopefully squeeze the rye ipa in as well before mid November so will be ready Christmas time

Has anyone brewed this? Any good?

HA ha, its finally carbonated although since first tried and was lovely although obviously flat as a pancake Is now extremely bitter, could this be the abv has gone up or something else I could of done

As you stated I should of bottled, but I wanted to dry hop in keg for aroma, which is why I kegged it

I have done exactly this bar putting in fridge as did not want to effect the yeast if no carbonation It has been out now at room temp for 1 week Stored cooler for 2 days then cooler again as you suggested So almost 2 weeks

Just tested before putting in fridge Loads of head but no carbonation at all Really tempted to chuck some yeast in now as really frustrated

Thanks peebee That makes a lot of sense and I’m guessing why the beer is not overly sweet due to being converted to co2 but released by valve ‍♂️ I’ve placed in kitchen we’re no radiators are present and then will move to larder tomorrow which is colder again tomorrow keeping an eye on the psi...

Thanks for all the help peebee Will leave till mid week Check a sample if still nothing add 2g of yeast Psi never seems to go above 7.4 tho?
