Very sad news, his beers were always of a high standard. The brewery tap is well worth a visit they have some very interesting small batch brews on as well as the core range. RIP

There was was someone else that had posted a few pictures and text etc about building a kegerator within a larder fridge, I have to say it did look the business, something to aspire too.

Looks like you will be busy!!, thanks for the information earlier today managed to place my order about ten minutes after you said they were taking orders

Now I know all online homebrewing outlets are really busy, have tried for the last 4/5 working days to place an order for some grains etc, I have followed all the instructions as stated on there website, but it doesn't allow me to move items from my wish list into the basket which would then...

I use the mini kegs for most of my AG brews, have found them to be great so far, to be honest only done 3 brews using them however they have all carbed up ok using the Brewers friend calculator. The bungs are easy to remove, I did a search on this forum someone posted a video which explains how...

Thanks for the info strange-steve

Have used the water calculator with this forum to calculate the additions to my brewing water, i have got to add some to the mash and some to the boil. Can anybody confirm if i have to add the mash addition to the grains and mix in before adding to the mash tun and do the boil additions go...

The list of lost breweries in the The last 40 years is a long one, ask any knowledgeable CAMRA member. A few recently have been sold to Japanese companies because they reckon they can’t make any money from brewing

Brewing, Cheese, Sausages and BBQ sounds like the perfect combination for life

Pretty new AG brewing, have just done a more detailed water calculation for my next brew, its saying i need to add Epsom Salts, is this really critical as i'm struggling to get some from my homebrew supplier can i use any epsom salts, have looked on internet and some supermarkets stock it.

Thanks for the help strange-Steve, I think that's the problem, didn't pay much attention to water adjustment etc, having only done 3 AGbrews since returning to HomeBrew after a 25 year absence, only ever did kits all those years ago. Have read some information this afternoon starting to get a...

Thanks for the info, does anybody have a list of the basic water treatment chemicals that I might need, my water testing kit will be delivered on Wednesday and I'm trying to put and order along with grains etc, for brewing next w/end.

Thanks for the info much appreciated, haven't done a water analysis but will do this weekend. Think our water supply is soft but the analysis will be the confirmation. Might look at the David Heath videos to get the basics right
