    Your house brew.

    I've enjoyed most of what I've made so far during the last 18 months but the first one I've done that absolutely has to be a regular is this one Rob's Twisted Stout | The Malt Miller Bottled it 2 days ago and it tastes great.

    Who remembers and used.

    Ah I remember those - a toilet on most streets very handy.

    Filling HLT/all-in-one from garden hose

    Snap. In my case it's less than 5m so easy enough.

    Can we be a little more accepting of our differences?

    I realised last night I couldn't find my overflow cone for the pipe from my Brewzilla anywhere then remembered I'd chucked all the spent grain in a black bag outside a week ago. The back of course had ripped. Found a replacement from China for 8 quid last night but held off - did a horrible...

    Agreed this place is very calm compared to most others I am on. Smell my pressure barrels you muthas!

    My First Failure

    Not very old about 18 months at most - I think I will strip everything down before the next one and go from there. I did for the last one I did and that's fine so maybe I did miss something. Thanks for all the replies.

    My First Failure

    Ok thanks for that. It's a puzzler perhaps wild yeast then somehow. The good part is it was a smaller batch than I usually do so got less than half a barrel in it.

    My First Failure

    Yep I've always used Chemclean on the FV and barrel - quite conscious of rinsing afterwards but maybe I missed a bit then?

    My First Failure

    Tried a quick half out of the pressure barrel tonight and I can only guess this is the band aid flavour I've heard about. Am not worried about the odd problem but am more puzzled as I fermented it early September and primed it in the barrel about the 18th - I tried it each week since in a tiny...

    Covid - Plan B & Omicron

    I'm due Boxing Day if it's 6 months. I'll get it before then if I'm asked.

    Covid - Plan B & Omicron

    Even here in Wales where it is still supposed to be compulsory to wear a mask in a shop I've seen some people not bothering for weeks now. I don't understand it it's not a big ask really is it?

    Advice on cleaning and sterilising

    Same here. I know they say don't fear the foam etc but I like to rinse anyway and haven't had an issue as yet.

    So who's growing chillies 2021?

    Sorry meant the chillies are in the freezer not the plant that's been binned :laugh8:

    So who's growing chillies 2021?

    Would you like to be 18 again?

    Would miss my son way too much couldn't do it. Although if I could have 10 years of it then return to now I would jump at it!

    Has anybody already started to have problems with CO2 supply or price hikes

    I use the 8g little c02 bulbs with my pressure barrels and wilko are out of stock of even those at the moment. I just ordered 2 packs of different ones so should be ok for a good while. If not I have over 100 bottles tucked away to go back to just using sugar if needs be. I will not be denied...
