Cheers for the info, out of intrest what is the fermentation temp on your copy as that is clearly wrong on the one that I have Only one way of finding out I supppose 😐 I just fancied doing something diferent so I will make it and post the results in here 👍

I am hoping to brew the Rosemary and Vanilla IPA but have a few issues with the recipe in the book, instead of clogging up this thread I have started a new thread here. If anyone is not aware there is also an old thread on this forum which lists various misprints/mistakes that are made in the...

Hi all. I fancy giving this a go and have ordered the malt and hops that I require but when looking more closely at the recipe (Greg Hughes Home Brew Beer pg 132) there are things that don't make sense so I thought I would post them here along with what I am planning to see if anyone has any...

I just throw mine in, never heard of dissolving it first, I always assumed it just dissolved almost instantly in the hot liqueur... But there again I also use a full tablet although do keep meaning to pick up a pill cutter to make it easier to try half next time so maybe I will also dissolve it...

Just been and checked mine and I have the black clamps but as it says in the vid @Mash Monster posted yours look like the new improved version so happy days 😁 As an aside how old is that vid? I didn't know that a new Bluetooth thermometer had been released, I have one being delivered today so...

I have read the posts but you quoted @RoomWithABrew who was talking about the bottom screen lifting. I do admit that I was charging my crystal ball at the time so I missed that fact that your reply was to a completely different post by a different member so I must apologise 😬

I don't worry about things that don't matter but I have spent the time to bolt mine into place 😂😂😂

I leave mine on and never had a problem but it is one of those things that splits opinions. Worst case scenario if something goes wrong is you need to get a refill which is around £20 (assuming you are using a full size bottle)

Nope, why are you trying to worry him while he is on holiday? Plenty of us leave the gas on without Issue

You will get there in the end and it will all be worth it when you have your own beer on tap 👍

I have just had a look at the kegarator spec on brew2bottle and it says they are ultratap's, all you would need is a compatible stout spout, the end that unscrews not a full new tap 👍 Brew2bottle have these in stock which it says are compatible...

I was going to order the flexible hose and sergeant spray head from kegland but as usual life gets in the way and I never get round to ordering it, if I finally grab one I will let you know how it works. Or alternatively if any other members use the same arrangement l, shout up 😁

That's good to hear, I have a gen 4 and was considering trying the same thing on the next brew after hearing it on here (sorry I can't remember which member suggested it to give them thanks)

You might as well go and get a bottle of co2 as well now then you can use the best gas for the beer you are serving 😁 I use mixed gas for stouts but co2 for everything else. Be aware that if you are serving stout with mixed gas you might want a stout spout for the best experience 👍

Sounds ideal, only another 20 or so years to go and I hope to be in a similar position 😂 for now though I am stuck to school holidays as I have 3 kids in education and my wife is a teacher so the school calendar pretty much rules out life 😑

Will try harder next time 😂

Ironically making Tesla/Elon Musk even more money! So not really a well though out idea 😂

That's interesting and new to me, I always throw a full one in and never seem to get decent head retention, maybe I will pick up a pill cutter and put half in next time

I bought a kegland saber refractometer after burning my hand taking a sample mid brew (thankfully it wasn't a bad burn). I have only used it for 1 brew so not much experience but it was much easier than taking a sample and putting it in the fridge to cool before getting a reading. I cant say...
