My missus dopesnt complain, buit looks sadly uninterested when ever I approach the topic. However she wont drink homebrew as all she will drink is Smirnoff vodka. Ive tried her with wine of all types but I just cant get her over. Atl least all the beer I make is mine when I drink it. And...

Hi I believe that if you was to add less sugar and add extra dark dme or lme that should bring up your sg to 1080. Less sugar will give you a thicker beer as more sugar will make thinner beer but slightly higher abv. Also I would knock the brew down to maybe 15 ltrs. Or you could just...

Hi all, I went into my local Morrissons yesterday and over the bank holiday period all kegs of beer are £10.00 only. They have the usual Hogoblin and old specked hen. The reason I have announced this is that it is cheaper if you are after kegging your beer afterwards as by reading the...

Hi all, I have just been having a look on the Holland and Barrett site and have noticed they do malt on there in smaller quantities in jars. Would anybody be able to tell me if we can use the same malt to make beer out of or is it a different kind of malt. I was thinking about 6 tins of...

Hi LM55 High gravity beers need longer to condition as the malt although has gone through the process with the yeast. has still got to chill itself out and try and relax a bit so it has its own process. the Hammer Of Thor can be drank sooner but it will not be as nicer beer and will still have...

Hi LM55 All seems good with the calendar and cant see any drastic problems appearing. when I am brewing Hammer Of Thaw I tend to brew at around the 16 - 18 Degree mark and follow the instructions like obviously you are. I don't bother to rack of as I don't see the point, but this Lager is...
