I can't see if it's burnt through or not from the picture. Check that it's Watertight before you use it. Wouldn't be happy with that myself though, surely shouldn't have passed quality control like that. Ask them to replace it?

It's in the settings part to make your own profile. I'm on the android app and if you click the menu top left it gives you the option to look at 'Profiles' that's where you can change it.

I'm not sure to be honest. Someone with a better understanding will hopefully be along shortly but you may have to let that sugar ferment out again and then do another batch prime but bottle it a lot sooner. That's assuming theres still enough yeast left hanging around to get to work on the...

Fit the tap back to front so it will fit?

When you batch primed and left it overnight the sugars then started to ferment again which is what causes your carbonation in the bottle. That's why it was too gassy.

That's a dream. We've got no running water and the guy running it has taken all the responsibility for removing rubbish as the council don't seem interested. Luckily plenty of rain and some guttering has kept me going this year.

Good point about the Tilt. If I get the bug again I may have to make a purchase of one. @johncrobinson Yeah I guess everything must have been perfect for it. More luck than judgement.

As a qualified fitter I can't recommend Duct Tape enough.

From the way it was going off the other day I thought I may have a quick one but as I haven't brewed for 5 years I wasn't sure. I'll leave it going in the garage until the weekend with the lid on and see what happens at the weekend. Could be in the bottle and ready to drink a lot sooner than I...

I'll have to check but I think it was Lallemand Windsor rehydrated as per packet instructions. Only thing that could have gone wrong with the yeast was I got delayed and it was sat rehydrated in a pint glass for a few hours but I can't see that being too much of a problem?

Set off my first AG on Saturday and it was happily blipping away in the kitchen. But I then moved it to the garage on Sunday and attached my home made heating belt too it. It's a length of heat tracing cable and an STC1000 to control the temp to 20C. All wrapped in a foil camping Matt to keep...

Luckily I've got an allotment so the spent grain is going straight on the compost heap.

I think they only sell 10 at a time to try and increase demand. They've "run out" twice since I bought mine.

Brewed this yesterday. Full grain bill that was sent mashed in 14L of water for an hour at 67C. 25g EKG @ 60m 15g EKG @ 10m First ever BIAB. Was a lot more work than I anticipated. That bag full of grains is hot and heavy. As I wanted to dilute down the mash due to it being more grain than I...

Just ordered them, I followed your lead and have accidentally jammed the lid on an empty FV

Just one question regards these chillers. I've knocked one up out of some old 10mm I had but it's dirty. I've cleaned as best I can and it's a bit more sparkly but are people sterilising or boiling off the home made chillers before first use?

Yeah I got a Bloc Party ale kit. I couldn't see a best before date but the grains were packaged in 2018. Looks ok to me though I'm going to make it at some point.

It may be more of a user error than anything haha. When I get home from work I'll try and get some pictures of the kit for you. Now I think about it I may be using the bottling bucket as an FV and.thats why the lid doesn't fit.

There were only 3 left when I ordered and when they all went another batch showed up, they do it to make you buy it lol. Good kit though but the lid isnt a tight fit. Just got some grains so the pots being used for BIAB.

At least I'm not alone then lol, read the page again afterwards and panicked. From what everyone is saying im sure it will be fine. @dave_77 thanks for the advice on brewfather, once my kit comes I'll try and get it sorted and see what this beer tastes like.
