Fair enough, they're still in the house have been away so not moved them yet. What would you suggest to hopefully reactivate these? Give them a good shake and keep them snug for a while longer?

Christmas Chronicles is one of the best new Christmas Films I've seen. Netflix Special.

What is the IBU unit of the triple? Google says Karpackie is a strong lager so you'll be better off trying to adapt a strong Lager recipe from the Greg Hughes Book I would think.

I popped one last night after 2 hours in the fridge and it was flat as a pancake, did give a little release when I opened the cap though. I may move them to the garage after the weekend to see if the cold will do anything for them. Tasty even though it wasn't carbonated.

Brewfather is free. I found it quite simple to use after you've had a play about with it for a bit.

£350 to empty a hot tub... I'm in the wrong game. I know you have said your DIY averse but have a go and take your time. Will be fine and save you some pennies.

I haven't tried one of these yet but they've been sat in the kids playroom antagonising the baby for two weeks so I may pop one in the fridge to try tomorrow. Theres a ring of stuff around the bottom of the bottle so I'm hoping theyre done. I didn't think about the cold crashing dropping most of...

I don't see the need for a fancy fermenter unless you really want one. Your plastic "kit" fermenter in your brew fridge is going to be absolutely fine to begin with. As for chillers the ones that come with the grain farther are for chilling the wort as far as I know.

Just in the throws of doing a 10L batch of Wheat Beer as a BIAB. Huge Stock Pot Straining Bag (Wilko) Big Spoon Muslin bag for hops Have to use the kitchen but the kids are in bed and I've taken the opportunity.

Whenever you've got the time really. No harm in leaving it though as long as you don't let the air get to it.

So that's why I had the problem then haha. Threw a whole one in about 14L of wort and and up just dumping the whole lot into the FV to let it settle out as there was fluffy stuff everywhere. I'll go for a lot less next time.

First ever BIAB recently but I used a Protafloc as directed by the Greg Hughes recipe.

My garage will be a lot colder than 12 degrees I think though. When I cold crashed my beer before bottling I checked the temp of the beer and it was 9 degrees when I added the priming sugar.

I bottled my Dark Ale (accidental grain order cock up) on Sunday and since then I have kept the bottles in the house to condition. But upon reading the Bible by Greg Hughes it says to store most of the recipes at 12C for Conditioning. Am I ruining this beer by having it in the house? My plan...

With regards to the recycling of cans and bottles, when I spent some time in Calgary you collected the cans up yourself and took them to a depot where they got weighed up and you got your payment. A bit like going to the scrappy here. Not sure if that's still the case mind it was nearly 15 years...

STC 1000 is about £10 or less on eBay. Same principle as the Inkbird you've just got to wire it all up yourself. I'm using one to control a length of heat tracing cable I wrap around my fermenter at the moment. The garage fridge is in constant use otherwise I'd have converted that by now.

You need to be very careful with those they will turn your beer bright yellow.... Is there a sarcasm emoji?

When I have a funny five and try and eat less meat the Linda McCartney sausages are ok. And Quorn instead of meat in a Bolognese or chilli is ok as well. I watched that vegan documentary on Netflix which was good but they do try and push their agenda a lot regarding dairy farming etc. Although...
