    Advice on cleaning and sterilising

    I may be wrong, but I'm sure yoy won't be able to sterilise wirhout a lot of expensive equipment. Sanitising, however is another matter. Whether no rinse sanitiser is or isn't better than VWP I don't know, but it has many advantages. I've heard a bleach solution a certain concentration is the...

    20 beers for £24 delivered.

    I've bought from both Beer52 and Flavourly and both were OK. I still get emails from Falvourly and nothing has tempted me to order again. One email promised a case of a certain number of styles and got the impression they weren't overly impressed with me pointing out their claim was, well...

    Britons cut meat-eating by 17% [Poll]

    But had the Catholic church changed their stance on contraception at some time over the past two thousand years, that would probably have helped.

    Corny Scales

    May I suggest something called 'pen and paper'? I think you can still get them at any high street bookies 🤣

    Would you like to be 18 again?

    18? No. 22 -38? Yes please. And I probably wouldn't change a single thing.

    Britons cut meat-eating by 17% [Poll]

    You're obviously not anti-American given your appropriation of their buzzwords. Where does your news come from if it's not from 'MSM' and how do you know it's balanced and what the agenda of the owners/producers is? It's a well know fact that eating meat is bad for the planet and it's...

    Wet Leg

    If you like bands as Wet Leg, you should listen To Marc Riley on BBC Radio 6Music. Lots of great music including live sessions and interviews.

    Butchers

    I doubt most sausages and bacon these days have ever been near a butcher.

    Infection and how to remove

    Brew again and bottle some (even if only in PET bottles). If the taste doesn't persist, you know it's you dispense set up.

    Laws and costs involved in selling my booze

    Are these the same 'food hygiene bizzies' whose job it is to force the owners of mouse and cockroach infested restaurants and takeaways to clean up their act, investigate outbreaks of food poisoning and ensure producers are producing food safely, but by all accounts leave you alone if you're...

    WEIRDEST WINE EVER MADE?

    Swede wine didn't even make ot to the bottle. Ditto sprout wine. Someone on another forum successfully fermented tomato juice after a lot of trial and error.

    Grainfather G-40 info

    I have a Grainfather G30 and while I've had a few issues, I have to say that a lot of the negative comments seen here can be found on thousands of other forums for hundreds of different hobbies. "Oooh the XXXX is £50 cheaper. What a rip off!"; "I built mine for 5/6 from macrame and papier mache"...

    Leaving StarSan/ChemSan in a corny?

    With so much conflicting information about the mixing of Starsan and mention of ph levels of the water used to mix it with was a bit vague, I decided to call 5 Star to get a definitive answer. The person I spoke to said that with regard to using hard water with Star San, cloudiness is indeed...

    Leaving StarSan/ChemSan in a corny?

    An FAQ on Five Star's website says: How long is Star San good for once it’s mixed into a solution? Star San is an EPAs registered sanitizer and must be used immediately. We do not recommend using it if has been in solution longer than an hour. This may be to comply with FDA rules and...

    Grinds my gears

    Ahh, my mistake. I didn't realise it was the Brewer's Association in the USA who defined 'craft ' there. I wonder if the term is protected though?

    UK & IPA

    Thinking about the shelves at my local Tesco, you've got the usal suspects lager-wise and then 'ale' seems split into three; big brewers, a few (generally very good) small traditonal brewers (Bath Ales and Oakham) spring to mind and then 'craft' which, is mostly IPA/NEIPA (at least 20 from...

    Grinds my gears

    For 'Craft Beer' to have any kind of meaning, it depends where in the world you're currently looking to have a pint. If you're in the UK a lot of people *think* it's shorthand for beer made by small brewers. That's not necessarily the case. In the USA, 'Craft Beer' *is* shorthand for beer made...
