    Just been tricked by a Green Devil.

    Cask green devil is amazing, one of my favourite beers. Wetherspoons often have it on keg but I don't like it for some reason.

    Pasteurising beer /cider

    How's that? The doctor has told him he can drink, how come you know better?

    How many sachets?

    I'd use 2, for the sake of a couple of quid it'll do no harm and it's better than a stuck brew.

    Sediment!!

    This is the most common piece of advice on these forums but I completely disagree with it. There is no need to leave the beer that long, once it ferments out a couple of days will be enough to clean up diactyl etc...if you have the ability a couple of days at 1c will drop out whatever you don't...

    Beavertown Extravaganza

    Looks great and the £55 includes all your beer. Given the price of beers from the breweries involved it wouldn't take long to drink your money back. I wish it wasn't so soon.

    Variety was the reason I started using liquid yeasts but since then I've found it really easy to overbuild so I can reuse the yeast lots which brings the cost down. I never has much luck harvesting yeast after fermentation so couldn't really reuse dry yeast. Spray malt extract

    Brewing for me became a lot less stressful when I stopped using air locks, bloody things never worked!

    Fermenation and secondary (2+2+2) problems.

    How do you manage to get your beer to ferment out that quickly? I'm sure I pitch appropriate size starters at the right temp but the best I can manage is 4 days but even then it is usually a little longer. I guess aeration could be the difference, I run an air stone for about half an hour but...
