    Mangrove Jacks Kits

    Thanks Rodcx500z, good to hear from someone that still does both, we have a lean to extension that I converted to my ham radio shack come office, but lifting the carpet there is a drain as well as a tap, so would be ideal for AG with a propane burner

    Kit v All Grain Costs

    I think I would enjoy it, after running out of my brew I was on the Brasserie lager from Aldi, used to go down a treat but tasted bad after me getting used to my own stuff so with more experience should improve even more, its not going to help my corny keg buyinh habit sick...sick...sick...

    Kit v All Grain Costs

    Thanks Nicks90, 99% sure I will go AG and will buy grain in 25kg sacks to see if that keeps costs down, but I would feel like an expectant father on my first few brews lol

    Kit v All Grain Costs

    Great cost breakdown Slid, thanks for that, to harvest yeast would I need a conical FV?, I'm amazed at the yeast price expected cheaper but think I have been thinking of bread yeast prices lol. I nearly pulled the trigger on the Fermzilla, but heard of horror stories of the PET container...

    Kit v All Grain Costs

    My Mrs and me prefer lager for a session, but I do enjoy a decent real ale pint now and then, but really fancy a go at AG so will see what the waiting time works out for a Brewzilla if I dont go the propane route. Cheers Geoff

    Like the Supermarket value brands lol, no good unless you enjoy it and bet the ingredient quality does really effect the outcome, thanks for your post Cheers Geoff

    Thanks for that, like most things in life quality costs so if you can really tell the difference , bet the machines are power hungry?

    Kit v All Grain Costs

    Thanks Alside101 I guessed the quality would be better so not bad at all then, was going to buy the Brewzilla and have a crack, then looked at the costs of a burner and mash tun etc so as a begginer think the Brewzilla would be easier but looking around it seems even all the pre orders have gone 😔
