Received my new fast ferment conical, so I will chuck in a fermenting bucket with bottom tap for free.

Decided to part with my grain mill as its surplus to requirements Similar to this http://www.thehomebrewcompany.co.uk/grain-mill-p-1197.html �£30 collected from Liverpool Regards Paul

Gradually replacing my king kegs with cornys. A good used condition bottom tap king keg with a S30 bottle almost brand new. £45. Collection preferred from Liverpool but can post at buyers expense. Regards Paul

Sorry for the slow reply, about 20 mins to get about 24 litres in the fermenter. The only other issue I've encountered and not seen mentioned so far is keeping the thing clean. After a couple of weeks the exterior of the copper will dull and start turning green/blue in places I presume this...

I made one of these a couple of months ago with all of the bits from Wickes. http://www.thehomebrewforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=53720 Tbh it all depends on the temp of your water going in thru the cooler. During the Summer I got a brew on which required 2 passes thru the chiller to get to...

My Buffalo Boiler was also new and did not have that style of hole ?? I second modding the blowout fuse also look at upgrading the Thermal cut out with one of a higher rating, I replaced both before attempting a brew. I strongly recommend coating the thermal cut out with Thermal paste...

Does it have a continental style 2 pin plug as opposed to a UK 3 pin plug? From my experience of living abroad there might be issues with warranty etc Regards Paul

Any opinions on Mangrove Jacks yeast? I'm looking at doing recipes from scratch as opposed to kits and my LHBS only stocks Mangroves Jacks :( Regards Paul

With my Buffalo boiler i removed the original tap enlarged the hole with a Q max cutter and fitted one of these http://www.the-home-brew-shop.co.uk/acatalog/Tap-Kit-Weldless-Hop-Grain-Filter.html#.VbkalnCkqrU A bit on the expensive side but has been absolutely faultless with nil material...

I take it the grain mill mentioned which has manufacturing issues is the same in the following YouTube video http://youtu.be/71TJqeP0o1M Looks like a lot of faffing round with the potential to have metal shavings in your grain. Regards Paul

Thanks for the quick replies, will check out the one linked above if nothing comes along. After a bit of googling I found this http://www.the-home-brew-shop.co.uk/acatalog/The-Roller-Mill.html#.VbgC13CkqrU Which is half the price of a similar mill in my LHBS. Regards Paul

TBH, I searched the Internet in vain to find an answer and watched the Beersmith setup profiles on YouTube to fine tune the setup. Maybe I touched lucky, but after a 90 minute boil and allowing for Trub (hops) at the bottom of the boiler I have 23 litres. If brewers friend doesn't work...

Looking at buying grains in bulk to save on postage. Does anyone have a cheap grain mill lying around unused :cheers: Regards Paul

Hi Mate, Not sure about Brewers friend but I use Beersmith and after 3 brews so far I have 23 litres of wort in the fermenter every time. I have attached my profile settings as a guide

Many thanks for the quick reply. I suppose there's not a lot I can do than I am doing already. Is it possible for the actual temp to rise during the mash? Regards Paul

Completed my 1st BIAB last month and experienced difficulty with attaining a steady mash temperature. Brought the water up to the correct strike temp plus 3 degrees to allow for the grains. Added grains and the temp rose to almost 70c? I monitored through the the mash (90 min) stirred every 30...

Hi, Would you take £180 for this and ill sort out a courier to collect? Kind Regards Paul No longer required, all sorted now.

Just completed my first BIAB and I was afraid off this after doing a bit of research. I managed a successful rolling boil my simply replacing the thermostat with one of these http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=261815345348&globalID=EBAY-GB Make sure you coat the face with...
