    New ag setup

    I currently bottle and have some mini kegs, used to have cornys but got rid. I dont have a brew fridge at present but I have an outhouse which could house one fairly easily. I just dont want to buy a set up that ok going to want to replace in a years time if that makes sense.

    Fish tank heater question

    What size builders bucket do people use for the fish tank heater method? I’m guessing you don’t want a huge amount of space around the fv? I’ve seen 30 or 60l versions

    I think they just use the standard bins to convert to boilers, I wouldn’t use it to ferment in

    Made a massive boo-boo

    My first brew was using the coopers microbrewery kit. The instructions stated that the bottles came pre sanitized so I took their word for it and just went ahead and bottled without sanitizer. On my last few bottles I noticed a thing layer of dust on a few of the bottles, so they got a rinse and...

    20 litre pot to do a full 23 litre brew?

    I used to do 23l batches with a 19l stock pot, after a few I switched to a plastic fv boiler because my hob wasn’t really up to it, and then eventually went with a mash tun and separate boiler

    Mobile apps

    I’ve seen both beer Smith and brewers friend have mobile apps. I don’t currently own a computer so will be buying one of these. Anybody have any experience with the mobile versions of either of these?

    Bottle or king keg?

    I prefer to bottle because it slows down my drinking and it’s easier to chuck a bottle in the fridge if I fancy a cold one
