    Busy times from home brew shops

    No need to apologise, I fully understand. My order arrived, and I soon placed another for some other stuff. 👍

    Deathstar's Brew Day

    Bottled my “Hop Along John” today, came out at 1.007, from 1.054. Obviously I had to have a little snifter, this is going to turn out very nice. Not as clear as I was hoping as I racked it off, but I only cold crashed for 1.5 days at 6c. Hopefully it condition nicely under the dining room...

    Help please with first all grain setup

    Agree with those above, try and keep it simple. On my old set up I had a rotating sparge arm, but as good as it looked spinning away. It never really gave enough flow. Now I just carefully pour the water carefully onto the grain bed. Practice getting your technique right on smaller batches then...

    Busy times from home brew shops

    I know @Brew2bottle Homebrew must be rammed, as my order that I placed on Sunday is yet to be fulfilled. Items are nice to haves rather than needs.

    Deathstar's Brew Day

    Dry hopped today with the remains of my Citra (56gms). I am going to leave this until Friday and then cold crash down to around 9c for 24 hours or so. Going to see if this helps the protein haze anyway. Or would someone recommend 1-2c?

    The Coronavirus thread.

    Yip, I work from home. If I'm not at home, I’m generally on a plane. But that stopped for us mid Feb.

    Busy times from home brew shops

    I popped into my LHB shop and they said its the busiest they've seen for years. They were saying that people a pulling old kit from their lofts to start brewing again. We are in uncertain time, and it could be like Mad Max.......

    The Coronavirus thread.

    Not sure of this is any use to anyone, however I have built a calculation file to allow someone to make some hand sanitiser if they have the ingredients. Obviously use this at your own risk.

    The Coronavirus thread.

    In all honesty in this current climate, I do not think we should be posting data that cannot be verified. Otherwise it just perpetuates misinformation and we end up like Facebook and other social media platforms. If we need to present data, it should be from verified sources and linked to those...

    The Coronavirus thread.

    I made a batch of chemsan up so a can spray all the handles and gubbins. I also have around 600ml of IPA at 99.9%, just need some aloe vera gel to mix it with.

    Things to do whilst self - isolating

    I had to sell my turbo trainer, I just could not get on with it. Even when using Zwift, I just melted even with a huge fan blowing and the monotony. We will probably end up decorating, and fettling the garden when it’s dry. Though I do need to fully strip down, clean grease and reassemble my MTB.

    I’m going to be on my Peat smoked stout. Ignore the Guinness glass.

    Fermentation Fridge - What make and model of fridges are you using?

    Also make sure it’s not a slimline fridge, otherwise your fermentation vessel may not fit in. £30 of Gumtree for me.

    The Coronavirus thread.

    Has anyone made up some Chemsan at the prescribed 10ml to 5L? Or is it not suitable?
