WAS a regular customer. I used to place quite a few big orders with them, but the last order was wrong, i received the totally wrong kits. Emailed the guy Darren i think his name was, and he offered me a £10 voucher WOW. I managed to get it up to £15 (the price of 1 basic kit) forgot about it...

Just sampling the 1st pint off this. Ermm really undecided. It's a bit young, been in the keg 8 days. It's quite bitter, not much fruit aroma, good lacing, and head retention, but really not as good as the MJ brewers series pale ale kit which i pimp with a 4 Grapefruit tincture, 2 zested, 2...

Was in my local Aldi today so took the plunge and purchased 1x 330ml tin for £1.25. Well its no Punk IPA, but its a not bad copy. It smells like Punk, jut a bit richer, and not as sharp, and that applies to the taste as well. It tastes more malty, and has nothing like the hop hit of Punk, its...

And it is using a kit recipe..

I've posted the recipe a couple of times on here, if you have a dig you might just find it...

Yes please.

This has been my quest for the last 12 months. The nearest i have got is a Range IPA kit, with quite a lot of dry hopping 100g of Citra, 50g of Chinook, and kit hops. It worked out quite expensive but IMO it was better then Punk IPA, it had a real citrus burst on the tongue. But you cant get the...

I gave up on the recycled mini keg experiment, the beer tasted metallic, horrible. I tried twice used a Ghost Ship, and a Hobgoblin keg. I wanted a way of transporting small batches. Looks like i will have to go down the plastic bottle route..

Hi Buffer. What sort of CO2 bottle are you using with this ?

Got the APA kit on at the moment, they appear to have discontinued the IPA due to the weird packaging (ie hops, and yeast, only accessible by cutting the pouch) The new kits have the hops, and yeast separate in the box. I can honestly say the best brew i've ever done was one of the IPAs. I added...

Citra, Citra, and more Citra..

Gotta be Punk IPA for me, or Jaipur. Could i have two ? Please....

I started brewing in the mid 80s, with Boots kits (oh my they were bad) Then switched to A/G. For the last 5 years or so i've brewed kits, and partial mash (pimped kits) I really couldnt go back to A/G, way to time consuming for the difference between that, and a good kit brew. As long as you...

Just fit a Schrader valve, and use a digital tyre gauge to measure your pressure. That also gives you another port to add CO2.

This is "Big Hop" 100g Citra, 50g Chinook, & 25g supplied kit hop's smell like Cascade, & Nelson. Gotta say this is lovely. I love Punk IPA, so have been trying to make a simple clone using various combinations of hop's, and the same basic kit & kilo recipe. This is the best i've managed, but at...

You sir are a steely eyed missile man. Very nice mods.. This is my little darling. Made it a couple of years ago, it's an old iceland fridge, i got for nowt off a mates mum. Looking for a tall larder fridge now to take a bin, and a PB.

They offer free postage on orders around £60, so do love brewing (art of brewing). I just order enough stuff to last me about 3- 4 months, and that normally comes to about that price. Problem is no local H/B shops now. :confused.:

Have found them best after fermenting for 2 weeks in primary (dry hop for last 5 days) leave in secondary for 5 days, then cold crash for 24 hours, then gelatine fine, then leave for 2 weeks before sampling, tried them after a week, and they are a bit green. The last 2 i have added 250g of...

These have been my stock beer for the last 8 months. Done 10 of them Brew to Bottle were selling them off for £8.95, they are bang on if brewed with 500g of light DME, and 500g of dextrose. I have been using the kit yeast and its great, tried one with a CML Kiwi pale yeast, and it wasnt any...

Well for that price it might be worth trying them. Are you just dry hopping with this amount ?
