    Mangrove Jacks Irish Red Ale

    Just brewed this Mangrove Jacks Irish Red Ale kit, and apart from it being more black than red, it's turned out amazing, brewed down in a week with temp control and even though its only been kegged a week, it's by far the best I have produced, great depth of flavour and a really nice drink, give...

    Kegging (10L) for beginners

    Dont you fancy either a Kegerator or keezer build and go with the standard 19L Corenius Kegs?, supposed it depends on how much you brew/drink, but best thing I ever done swapping to kegs

    Your not kidding, remember putting a 3 ele beam together on top of \minera Mountain, as soon as we was about to test it, the heavens opened then came the thunder and lightening, think I must have broken the record for taking an aerial to bits

    CB Radio.

    I started in 1979 with a Peggy 3, then a string of Cobra 148 GTL-DX, had some monster beams up like the 6 ele Avanti Quad, and used to live up the hills near Wrexham so always got out well on dx, then started chasing the lady breakers when fm came along, as a rough guide if they sounded gorgeous...

    Best lager kit

    Are you regulating the fermenting temp?, I do and mine started at 1040 and bang on a week down to 1006, but when it used to go cold overnight in the front room (My brew place) all brews were a minimium of 2 weeks as it was going to sleep overnight, since regulating the temp with aquarium heater...

    Grainfather Conical Fermenter

    Thanks peebee, good to hear from an owner, thought the pressure transfer would work out well so not sure to go with a cheaper model and build a fermentation fridge and yes that glycol chiller is pricey

    Corny Keg Pricing

    They seem to go for around 65 to 70 quid on Ebay when I was looking then I joined this forum and Brewkegtap was mentioned here, also the kit they sell for the Kegerator conversion just looked better than others I had seen, and when I took the plunge I was warned they will breed, up to 5 for now lol

    Grainfather Conical Fermenter

    Hi all, I really like the look of the Grainfather Conical Fermenter but the price is a bit eye watering, its the temp control that appeals , and the pressure transfer, I could go with one of the cheaper Stainless models and build a Fermentation Fridge but can you pressure transfer with the...

    Corny set up advice

    Its the price of the flow control tap that makes it more expensive I would imagine, you could go with 3/16 line off keg and mount a cheaper tap like the brass chrome one to get costs down on a pice of wood
