Hi MM Thanks for reply - my heart leaped as I thought "great" that will be one gone at least lol Sorry for late reply but friday night is "garage" night as 2 neighbours come round and we get stuck into a few Admirals Reserve and so saw your reply but didnt get chance to reply till now...

Beauty and a Beast all rolled into one New World IFF70 FF - was in my kitchen and only used for 4 years when it stopped chilling / freezing. Might need Thermostat or Regas which round here nobody seems to do any more Really clean / tidy and you can probably get exact dimensions using Model...

Setting Quiz and despite Googling I cant find an estimate of number of Home Brewers in UK Primarily beer and or cider Also average amount they each produce please Thenks for any help

I do nothing but Admirals now and I always add the Hop sachet before the 2 yeast sachets. If you search you will find a big thread devoted to exactly this. I was advised to try one brew putting hops in after 4 days and one in before fermenting I did that but could not discern a difference -...

As my name suggests I like Wherry a lot and brewed it for ages. Its a session beer and if people are happy with that then dont pimp it Ive seen suggestions to add LME to the brew but I went instead to Nelsons Revenge / Bitter at 5 pc and Admirals Reserve ar 5.5 pc using the kits with no...

I am desperate reading this. Jet my Lab cross if 17 years and almost 9 months old (he's in the Show us your Dog thread) and I know he has lived a full life / had a great innings and in truth he would probably be better off now if he just died peacefully. In reality I know he wont as he has a...

Its my favourite bit (yes I am a sad bugger) but I always tilt the FV to get the very last drops of the clear liquid off the sediment. Its good to see how little can be left in the FV and of course if some of it gets inthe Keg then it settles out anyway.

Instuctions on Box say aim for FG of 1.014 so really you are there - especially with 2 weeks having passed My last 3 Admirals have been 1.014 1.013 and 1.012 and 2 of them have been superb - the 3rd I have not started drinking yet I have put 2 more in recently and will leave them for 2 weeks...

I started around 69 or 70 and did not bottle that many brews before getting my first PB. I found that liberating Always done "kits" though as you say those back in that time were far inferior to what is routinely on offer today I graduated eventually to 3 Aluminium Pub Barrels and a hand pump...

Yes I think that was the problem a while back - then they had a Packaging change and a second yeast appeared. Ive been back brewing for almost a year and use Admirals all the time into 3 KKs as it just suits me fine There also was a mismatch with the Hop powder instructions. The Sachet said to...

Mate of mine a chain smoker was told to give up the **** or it would kill him Saw him a few weeks later and asked how it was going - and he said great - I only have a *** after a meal now ... and Im down to 40 meals a day

Glad to report that the simplest method - decanting into a 2 litre jug worked a treat Great colour great head great taste - 7 litres left of first batch - so will try to keep some for a massive birthday in Mid Feb. Also did 9 more for that date but they have been in bottles only since Bonfire...

Ah - thanks again I had never seen or known anything about Carb Drops so will still avoid them if they drop sediment. Stop gap - just bought a clean new Pitcher from Asda for £4 so will decant a Litre a time into that Then will get barrel 6 though of course the Leffe-a-like will obviously...

LOL - yes its much stronger than Leffe - just beown 9pc so the last bit will be a given ! Very sensible suggestion too - and it was one I had thought the post practicable. I have a large Hoegaarden Pitcher mybe 2 litre capacity so I will try that next (and anything else suggested on here) I...

Leading on from the above I have now opened my Leffe-a-like and it was g-o-o-d Colour great - clarity incredible - it looked and tasted like Leffe if a little stronger in taste. Superb head when I poured it - brilliant tight and white but thats when I hit the snag I went with a 400 mil Leffe...

I changed mine today as it was / is crap. I did though have a problem from the outset as even when bought new the tap leaked through the pinhole on the front. I cured it with Vaseline and stupidly brewed another Wobblygob Cider and put that in there. Within 3 days I had lost 1 and a 1/2 pints...

Hi yes - that is a good point and I imported about 10 of them from different Kolsch Houses when I was on Holiday in Cologne - so good call. Could custom make a Board to take 3 of them They sit in my glass displaying case and could do with a bit of use lol

I voted Leave in 1975 after our trial Membership and the figures (roughly) were 66% Join / Remain and 33% Dont join / Leave That was a 33% majority - thirty three per cent ! Nobody really complained and I was on the wrong side of the result but just got on with it . Only certain factions mostly...

Hi again and thanks for replies I had seen the Stephensons ones but they appear to come only in packs of 6 and have emailed to see if they do singles The Baron (again many thanks) - I do use Ikea a lot and have noted the glasses you suggest - and might get my mate to do the hollowing out and...
