What about doing that; "collect the juice, pressing or squeezing the fruit pulp. Then pitch the stained juice" But after chilling when kegging? I bought some Monin mango syrup what a mistake it has a disgusting after taste when added to an IPA. 🤮 Strange as their others are great!

I still use 2% Caustic @ 80*C for 15mins. Used with my Novax 20b (vitex) Pompe and a variety of spray balls all my cleaning is straightforward. Been using this for a number of years and even dismantled it just to check. But it does everything I need. It's now castor mounted on a trolley and has...

I think he was pushing 30 psi to carbonate. But as others have said the colder the beer is the more CO2 will be absorbed into the brew. This is a good summary of the key bits; https://actechinc.co/all-about-beer-lines-blog/correct-pressure-beer-dispense-lines 🍻

If you don't have space for a house full of fridges,,hidden or otherwise disguised,,;) a STC1000 Elitech STC-1000HX Temperature Controller Thermostat, Upgrade STC-1000, Automatic Switch Cooling and Heating, ℃/℉, With NTC Temperature Probe Sensor and...

Just something to think about for the future,,,, I started out with 30L HDPE Speidel cider fermenters. Eventually I picked up some Acask keg jackets real cheap. They are brilliant Piped Cooling Jacket (30 Litre) and I discoverd they are very flexible how you can use them. I then got a Brandels...

1.048 - 1.004,,,,,, Done 10's of HL's sells out and has a following up here.. If it's done right it rocks. No TC whingers up here!!!

Did the same, composter crew are munching it quite happily,,,,,, Does it need particular bacteria? Compost wormies say they prefer the beer slops...

Good reminder @peebee.:cool: Now have prescription goggles and even a face shield when checking CIP'ing. Gauntlet rubber gloves. PPE is there to protect use or don't at your peril! I do look like a mad scientist,,, Haahhhhaaahhhhahhahahahahhhhh,,,gibber,, (goes back into the corner):coat:

I just make a dry version @ 6.5% but have a selection of syrups to sweeten. I have Monin; Strawberry, Apple pie, Cloudy lemon, Toffee Apple and Grenadine. My Cidree (TM) from Tiree has been one of my best sellers!

I understand that the origins of IPA were to hop before transit to India then re hop before transit to destination - double hop is a historical fact. I left a Porter and AIPA for 3 weeks when we went travelling. With Yeasties dumped and held @ 2-4*C Sometimes the slow route leads to a better...

I have RJT, camlock, JG, CPC and Tri Clamp. Honestly once you master the ninja upside down 'clamp flip up' on a conical drain you are sorted! I love the TC operation and the fact I can use them like Meccano to build pipe connectors. Not impressed by the others,,,,

No peeking! - it increases the chance of letting nasties in.

Well done m8! Hi, I am going down the same route. But I focused on the FV/cold side as I mainly cheat by using HLME and steeped grains unless I've got plenty spare time. I'm now mainly using modded under bar glycol chillers with STC1000 controllers to the jacketed FV's with internal coils. I...

Just wondering how you added the hops? LME is pre-boiled so just needs heating to 75*C for sanitisation. I add my T90 hops to pre-boiled and cooled water and cold soak (sometimes overnight:oops:) then add to a bit of the (cooled wort) to get a rough sense of the bitterness/flavour and add...

Campden tablet will sort Chlorine or leave out overnight or pre-boil? Add a Tiny bit of citric to drop PH? add very slowly!!!!

@hoppyscotty - "Though the conical is a lovey bit of kit and will last forever, it's time consuming to clean and I miss not being able to see the beer." Have you tried CIP? I rough wash then do a hot caustic for an hour with the pump, rinse -check then sanitise with PAA. But it's all with...

Wow, there are still cinemas - :oops: You mainlanders are so weird:tongue: But can you pause when you go for a pee and fresh brew? and if it's crap can you find another film? or switch to mariocarts?

Sent you a message last week m8 ;)

Is this still for sale?
