I will , although I found it is supplied with 6g sachet of yeast and instructions I found online said something like " and add the sachet of Yeast " singular But as you say why risk it ?

Hi anyone know the average og for TT please Ive used 1044 for now giving 4.4 ish which is their target abv so maybe near Should have measured. Beer barrelled today and looking "red" in Bulk Many thanks wp

Hi Tom May be my memory playing tricks on me because the Sachet in the Kit is identically packaged as the ones I bought. The bbe dates are almost identical and i am now thinking I bought from Boyes when I was left a sachet short in a Woodfordes kit a while back Neither say Beer but then again...

Yes I have looked and I have 6g of Yeast in sachet supplied Also got an identical 6g sachet bought up from Wilko recently Can I play safe and put 12g of yeast in or split the difference with 9g OR can I overdo the Yeast I've been at this game on and off for 50 years and am still a beginner in...

In my case into a King Keg , and not touched till my Wherry is used up. Only 8 pints a week go , all on a Friday so 5 weeks for the TT so it will be bang in Season by then Cheers all

Thanks very much soupdragon for the reply Given where I bought it I didnt really expect the Kit to have been rustled for a sachet of yeast but I know some Muntons (Woodfordes etc) have had issues of stuck fermentation and Muntons added a second Yeast and that seems to have cured the issue So I...

Cheers . I dropped them straight in this morning and will have to decide whether to half them (next time) once I've tasted it However reading the "What kit beer would you not do again" Thread I may be doing TT just this once Hope not it looks great on the box

Oh no . I've just bought a Tinsel Toes . Hope it's better than reviews say CWTCH was the one I messed up (at least I must have ) because I went to Newport 0 Doncaster 1 last Season and called at Tiny Rebel The CWTCH was tremendous so make me want to do it again lol

Hi Sorry but search didn't help out Just bought this Kit but only had 1 yeast sachet when I got it home. I always used to check in Wilco, Boyes and similar places as (I'm guessing) people used to open Kits and remove one Yeast but this was on shelf of local home brew shop So should it have 2...

Thanks for replies so far. Given the Beer needs to be kept warm for Secondary Fermentation that seems to rule out chilling them. With 6 days or more till fermentation completes (after just dropping them in) do they sink or do they dissolve for want of a better word ? Cheers again JT

Sorry but searching on here first I still cant find a definitive answer although I did see one that seemed to be I have TT on the go and it says after 4 days add the Hop pellets. So as someone says "well just add them". I note it doesnt say (in the Instructions) make a tea of them , crush them...

Thanks to all for the suggestions and recommendations. I will get Greenhouse well before the first frosts (I hope) and kit out accordingly I will be around most of winter but trying to get an almost foolproof set up in case I go somewhere sunny for a few weeks. Neighbour is great but I don't...

I will look for bargain Inkbirds now. I'm going to do as you suggest and line inner walls of Greenhouse with bubble wrap or similar Install Inkbird and set to come on at 3c go off at 5c. I will have to choose a simple Tube heater or similar with no built in Thermostat as that might be at...

Hi and thanks Mashbag for the interest and reply. Spotted immediately as a Yorkshireman your 3c to 5c .... much better than 5c to 10c (wasting money lol) Question I haven't got answer to yet is if you use an Inkbird (or similar) can it be set to switch on my chosen heater when temp gets to 3c...

Hi Foggie and thanks v much for the interest and reply I'm liking the look of the Inkbird but would it be a combo of that and a Dimplex heater. Would Inkbird be able to crack the Heater up when temp fell to say 5c and then simply turn off when Temp in Greenhouse got to say 20c ? It implies...

Sorry Clint Sent a reply dut did not arrive ... Hope this answers Foggies questions but will check in a minute but they are big big Strelitzias Hi Clint Youve helped me in the past with Beer I believe , and grateful for the interest and input I have 3 Bird of Paradise (Strelitzia) and 2...

Hi Ive been avid reader of Forum for ages and I know of the existence of Inkbirds in Brew Fridges and greenhouse typr heaters but as yet I simply stop brewing in high summer lol (mainly because of diy capabilities) Anyway I have a question re the above but to be used in a Greenhouse. We have 5...

I'm perfectly happy doing Kits , mainly Woodfordes based ones and think Wilko will be suffering like other High Street shops as people shop online The big downer though on Online buying is the delivery charges. You can avoid them of course by getting past a minimum spend but it's always...

I was looking for Beer Kit recently and missed the HB section entirely. So I asked assistant if they had any and she directed me to where I had looked She added they are reflecting on the whole range of products they stock and HB is one of them so it may be phased out once the "reflection...

Cheers Ankou ... Darleys Brewery was in my home town Thorne and was the same. Also been on Brewery tours in a few places too I will " get over it" but probably will still add the powder at the start next batch or not at all Maybe try each one in sequence and see if my "audience" on Friday...
