    Corny keg

    All is not lost here apart from some time, you need to bump up the regulator to about 20 psi and leave the co2 connected to the keg for the whole time, even as you drink the keg.

    Corny keg

    10 PSI is quite low for lager, did you keep the co2 connected for the whole carbonation time for the lager to absorb the co2 ?

    Keir Starmer: one year in, Labour leader's popularity has plunged

    @Northern Brewer 100% behind you with everything you have written. It's such a shame that people read the papers and f/book and believe the nonsense about Corbyn the communist. I didn't vote in the last election because in my view, Corbyn isn't a leader and shouldn't have been elected leader...

    Bake your first sourdough 🤤

    It wasn't good, I shall try again but add more flour because it wasn't able to hold its shape. Practice makes perfect 😊

    Bake your first sourdough 🤤
