I picked up a 2nd hand 10kg off FB marketplace for £25 then had a new test and fill for £40. Current fill price is £15 at my local supplier.

Picked up 3 bottles of Old Rosie, 3 for £6 at Bargain Booze which seems a good price. Bit of reading, drinking and sanitising to do, then hopefully I’ll have a culture soon 👍

I have a Muntons premium autumn blush kit ( 30 pints ) and wonderdmif I could use Old Rosie yeast instead of the kit yeast. Obviously I’ve got to suss out how to grow on the Old Rosie yeast first but there seems to be plenty of threads on that… was hoping itwas as easy as just dumping the...

BOC in Morecambe, if I remember correctly, is probably the closest to south Lakes

I’m another newbie and have done a couple of kits and a few TC’s in the last 8 weeks. The hardest lesson has been patience.. Don’t give up on it

I get 298 motorway miles per charge on my 2024 Kona if I stick to 65mph and 286 miles if I go over 70mph for the journey.

Toast and butter.

Oxebar 20lt arrived 10 minutes after I posted the question.. seemed silly to leave it empty. Primed it with 150g of table sugar and added 5psi of co2. This will be the christmas brew.

I’ve had an MYO lager kit in the FV bucket for 16 days, brewed with a pilsner yeast and finished @ 1.010 from 1.060. Stayed at 12c in the garage all through the ferment. Not sure if it is better to bottle it and fridge as required or keg it and let the cold weather chill it in the garage ready...

Porridge, peanut butter, olive oil and chocolate protein powder. Snickers in a bowl 👍

Which gelatine do you use, looking to give this a try?

I’m new to this so probably not best placed to advise, but I’ve got 2 new 8ltr oxebar kegs with cider in them and a party tap for dispensing. They are great! I use the soda stream for gassing

Thanks.

Not bottled yet, that was one of my questions. I would say very little wine taste at this point and the kit says drinkable straight after but best left 3 months

I put a kit on to brew and forgot to take the OG after addding the 900g of sugar, so not sure what it should have been or what ABV is but it taste like water.. it took a while to ferment down to .990, with no activity for 3 days I decided to degas and add the finings as per instructions. 48hrs...

Thought I’d give an update.. Left it another week which gave me time to spend money I don’t have on a corny keg kit 🤫 Well 4 days after kegging I couldn’t wait any longer so poured a glass, poor head but bloody good taste. I’ll leave it a couple of days in the gas at 20psi and see how it...

Thanks for the help, I will leave it be for a week amd see how it is 👍

Totally stopped overnight and nothing since, I was surprised to find it stopped so soon. It is in the garage with a DJ heater & wrapped in a towel, the same as the Merlot wine kit which is still bubbling away.

Nutrient was added before pitching the yeast. No airlock activity for the last 2 days.
