    Is Hopcat legit?

    Another question is about steam with these things. Do you get a lot? If so what do people do about it? I wouldn't be able to use the extractor obviously...

    Is Hopcat legit?

    Would love a set up like yours. Unfortunately I have zero DIY skills. Current set up is a 30l ace mash tun and a 30l ss pot with tap.

    Is Hopcat legit?

    Really tempted by an all in one system. We want a 50l system. So to be clear the options are Robobrew or hopcat?

    NEIPA Malt miller

    I thought the same . It does say you can add them at flameout for a hoppier beer. Do you by any chance have a better recipe,?

    Hi Ben, Thanks for your reply. I'm half way through the rest. I'll kick it up to 19 tonight and then bring it down in temp again. I have no gelatin so might have to crash it down to say one and then leave it for a few days. Does that sound OK. In terms of kegs, if I can source gas in time, what...

    Oktoberfest Lager Advice Needed

    Hi There, So I'm brewing a Greg Hughes Oktoberfest lager using WLP820 Yeast. It's been sitting in the fermenter for a week now.

    C02 Gas in North London

    Awesome. I think ours would last longer then as we'd only have two kegs. I'm tempted to go for the 6.15kg. As we have a small fridge we're going to leave the canister outside and feed the pipe through the drip hole.
