Thanks everyone 🙂

I now have 3 corny kegs waiting to be filled. 2 just arrived from BKT and they were pressurised. So it got me thinking. 🤯 There is going to be times when they are going to be empty, so how should I store them. Lid closed up or off? Pressurised or unpressurised? Or does it not matter? Thanks Gwen

Oh dear, I can see the 3 corny's have might not be enough 🤣 🤣 might have to do even more research on what a skankey connector is. No wasn't thinking of using them empty, only full ones to drink from. We do like Thatchers Gold and Haze.acheers.

Thanks Gav 👍 Reg, I was only thinking when I came out of bookers this morning and saw the empty thatchers barrells about using them at home. What kind of connections do you use for them?

Hi Dave, I am sure you will get an answer from someone far more experienced than me, but I have done several ciders with fresh apples, country wines, wine kits and ale BIAB and kits. I have found that it all is down to temperature and yeast. Some can explode with in an hour and sometimes it can...

Let the fun begin. 😊 Double keg kit just arrived. just a few more questions. 1. The 4 little connectors I take it they are line reducers for connecting the beer line to the tap 2. The spring I take goes in the tap. Which way? Wider end tap end or wider end line end? 3. The pink rubber seals...

I do hope she finds a forever home soon. We used to do the grounds maintenance at Margaret Green Animal Rescue near Bere Regis and it was heart breaking to see all those dogs stuck in kennels. 😢 We did end up with 2 of them though. 😉

Great video, thanks is for the link. Thanks everyone, I think I have a good idea how to go forward now 😳😁 get money in bank and get loadsa stuff ordered before hubby gets home 🤣

Thanks. I think I am following 😬 So if I want different pressures on say the 2 or 3 keg set up use secondary regulators on my gas pipe. So here is were I start to get lost. Would I use secondary regulators with a gas manifold or is this instead of? Sorry but what I thought I was understanding 🤣...

Perfect and thank you I had better start doing some overtime as I have given hubby a ball park figure and it seems to be going up each day 🤣

Now you have given me something else to think about. ashock1 So to regulate each keg separately I need to use a secondary regulator? I was originally thinking of using a Y splitter, then moved onto a gas manifold with 3 or 4 outlets but I have also seen a 3 way splitter from the malt miller...

Thanks for that. Would the gas manifold be better fixed inside the fridge or outside?

I am about to bite the bullet and go down the corny kegerator route. I bought a keg locally that came with a party tap and another tap (see pic). I have sourced a c02 pub gas bottle from my local pub. I have convinced hubby that we need to make a kegerator, which he say's he will help me make...

First try for me tonight Proper job IPA. Not really a fan, just a bit to twangy for me. However homemade dry white is very tasty. Can you tell hubby likes it too, just left enough for me to have a glass.

Hi from Dorset. I am a wine and ale type of gal and spend ages trawling through the pages learning loads. Great bunch of peeps on here with tons of knowledge to help.

This is the 4th kit of this make I've made and never had the froth like that before but will take heed and not stir anymore 👍

I stupidly started another MYO rose` kit on 20th July in the middle of that really hot weather we had. Within hours of adding the yeast it was bubbling away. Its has stayed really frothy on top so I have been stirring it pretty regular. I started with OG of 1.090 Since the 29th it has stuck at...

Thanks everyone for your input. I will be chatting the pub up on Friday as searching on line to buy a bottle from BOC etc to get me stated is a big no no. Apparently there is a bottle shortage and only doing refills if you have a bottle to start with. asad. So if local cant help it might have to...
