    Kegerator Rookie Mistake?

    Hey all, So I got one tap setup on my kegerator (more to come in the future) the other week and so far so good. Last night however it occurred to me that I probably made a very silly mistake...I have left the line connected to the key continuously. I poured a glass last night and a little...

    Hi from Pudsey/Leeds

    Hello fellow Loiner! Sounds like you've got a great little setup so far with plenty of room for adding more to it! I recently got my kegerator sorted and am looking at in the near future using a raspberry PI to make a ferm chamber so might have to pick your brain if I get stuck! 😉 Hope the...

    What are you drinking tonight 2022?

    Excuse the dirty background! 😂 The one on the right in the second picture is my festbier. I'm rarely happy with anything I do but I think I did well when comparing these. It's not meant to be a clone but I'm glad it's in the same ball park 🤘

    What did you brew today?

    Just put into the fermenter an attempt at a festbier. I'm terrible at remember to take pictures but here are a few at least from the mash🤘 Gravity readings are a little up in the air at the moment (hydro saying 1.046 & iSpindel saying 1.064 🤣) but I'm sure it'll be fine.

    If you could only drink one commercial beer for the rest of your life.......

    Leffe, if I had to pick a specific style then brune but would be happy with any of theirs really! 🤤

    What are you drinking tonight 2022?

    From the other night but here is my homebrew pilsner. I'll be sad when it's gone. It's not perfect but I'm proud of it and my efforts on this one 😁

    Should I dump it?

    Sorry I meant 1.068 🤦‍♂️ it was an AG brew that I adapted from a recipe from Brewfather. I might try putting in some more yeast...as soon as I can get some 🤣

    Should I dump it?

    Hi, So I am trying to make a dubbel. OG was 1.058 and I'm aiming for 1.018. I'm using t-58 and feel it's struggled to ferment thus far and for the last two days there has been no action. As it was my first time using the iSpindel I have even taken hydrometer readings just in case but it all...

    [Solved] iSpindel & Brewfather

    I managed to get it sorted. Some of the settings had been screwed up so it was giving out really strange readings that Brewfather must have just ignored. Thanks.

    [Solved] iSpindel & Brewfather

    Hey all, I brewed yesterday, attempting a dubbel, and I've put the iSpindel in but am wondering if I've missed a setting or something because it doesn't seem to be reading the gravity 😩 Any thoughts? I've included a screenshot of the output, not sure that will help but 🤷‍♂️ haha Thanks.

    Carbonation issues

    I actually have one of those but it didn't really seem to help. But I could have been using it wrong I suppose. Sadly where I am I can't take advantage of that. I'm in a back to back terrace with no front yard or garden. Hopefully I'll be moving next year and will be getting some more gear...

    Carbonation issues

    The line was closer to 18m for the majority of the time and was sort of 'chugging' out. One moment it poured seemingly ok, then foamy. So I did cut it down at the end (obviously didn't help). It's 3/8" O/D so I could look to get a different line and make sure the internal is right. I did...

    Carbonation issues

    Hey, So I kegged some beer into a corny keg a few weeks back. I left it for a good week at 25psi as I didn't have anywhere cold to put it so had to compensate. I just left it and found it was totally flat (still alright to drink though). I then left it for another week at my girlfriend's...

    Belgian candy syrup - water used

    I had considered that actually it's a fair point. It was time consuming but glad I did it.

    Belgian candy syrup - water used

    Hi, So I just finished making some Belgian candy syrup using the method give here by another member. It wasn't until the end something occured to me...I used tap water. But when I attempt a dubbel in a week or two I was planning on using spring water from the shop since I'll have to do a lot...

    What are you drinking tonight 2021?

    Terrible picture but this is my Czech style larger. This one was from the only bottle I racked. The rest is on a corny keg which I've just started pouring from. Sadly the carbonation isn't anywhere near where I wanted it but other than that I'm actually really happy with my efforts! ☺️ Happy...

    Should I be concerned?

    Thanks for the replies. I'll not panic and just look forward to the drinking!!

    Should I be concerned?

    I was thinking it could be the yeast but wasn't sure. I haven't tasted it yet but the smell is good! 🤘 Thanks.

    Should I be concerned?

    Hey, I'm due to keg my beer tomorrow ready to be carbonated and I couldn't help but take a peek and noticed all these bits sitting on top. Should I be concerned? The smell of the beer is fine, I just didn't expect to see these bits. I used FM30 yeast so maybe it's something to do with that...
