Hi all. I am in Nottingham and I am seriously interested in getting a couple of Corney Kegs plus all associated kit. I met the brewer from a local brewery who said I would be able to pick them up second hand for about £40 to £45. Cannot see them anywhere at this price. Looking for any advice or...

Uploading photo's is proving to be fun. Sorry about multiples

Well a week ago today I christened my Robobrew. Greg Hughes American IPA. My other choice was his London Bitter. That may have been the better choice as the IPA had a lot of grain for a first brew but it went ok ish and the mash went ok with good wort circulation but feel a recipe with a...

This is my effort, no finings. Just left it in the Demijohn to clear. Going to leave it for Xmas. My first Robobrew day yesterday got thwarted by life. Planned now for Monday. Fingers crossed. Others in brown bottles, did this in clear so I could keep a better eye on it..

Well, my big brew looks likely for Monday. A few weeks ago I got impatient and after seeing a thread on here for 1 gallon AG brews, I had a go. I did post regarding my efforts. But regarding the trub etc, all sorts went into the demijohn. No fining agents, nothing. Bottled it 3 days ago and this...

Thanks to all of you for your help. I really appreciate it.

Thanks for that, I did think about the tap. I have noticed some people using it but most do not. It means you have to have the Robobrew up high but that is no problem... Thanks, I may well give that a go.

Thanks Foxy. Looked around before I asked and could not find info. Looked again afterwards and found a thread you had already been involved in regarding this same issue. Sorry I missed it before asking. I'll try to minimise it, just not sure how with my setup. I will research it more...

Tell me about it. Life got in the way today. So now looking at Sunday or Monday.

Was looking to do my first proper brew with my brand new Robobrew today but life got in the way, so delayed to Sunday or Monday, but that's ok... Watched lots of videos and relatively happy about the process. One thing bothering me is the trub after the boil. Some people say this should not go...

Hi. How did it go? I am doing my first full AG brew tomorrow. Greg Hughes American IPA. Simcoe and Citra... Hope it goes well......

Well, I bottled it yesterday. It tasted really nice. I first thought that it did not have a lot of flavour. Definitely enough, but not as much as I thought. After bottling there was about half a bottle left, so in a glass it went and onto the sofa to try my flat beer. Halfway through it, I...

Just saw the post date so comment not now needed sorry

I remember drinking bottled Stella 35 ish years ago, it seemed a very different brew to nowadays. It had flavour..... It seems to have got worse as the years went by. Can't remember the last time I had it..... Thank goodness. So much for the above process...

Count me in please, would love to make that kit....

Been going a week. Just a few tiny bubbles now. Hope to bottle it in a weeks time. Then leave a few weeks, and then I will post my findings. Fingers crossed.....

Just enjoying this pint of Smashing Pumpkins in Nottingham. Welbeck Brewery. Nice and spicy.....

Hi. Hoping to have a go at Greg's American IPA. It will be my first AG Brew. Interested how yours turned out.

] Having read the simple AG recipe thread. I thought lets have a go. I thought I would take lots of photo's to share but when you get involved it is so easy to forget so there are sadly very few. 1kg pale malt, 5g Cascade at the start of the boil, 10g at the end with quarter tablet of protafloc...

This is a long thread. So sorry if this has already been mentioned.. Just purchased a Robobrew. Checked its ok, but not used yet. Never done an all grain yet. But this method of brewing a small amount of beer seems a great way of using up small amounts of leftover hops.
