    What's the most extreme beer you've ever made?

    What was the recipe? And did it work? I was thinking about bread, and the time I made a sourdough loaf with 100% wholemeal flour (Shipton Mill 3 malts and sunflower) and it came out very heavy but so tasty. Then afterwards I found out you're only supposed to use it for like 20% of your flour...

    First time can I start tonight?

    This is the most amusing thing about this hobby for me. "I had a tin of malt, so I bought some sugar and 48 bottles, and some spray malt, and an FV and a hydrometer and a siphon, and an airlock and a trial jar and some new yeast to brew it. Then I decided to get the best out of the tin, I'd buy...

    After 'Have a go at a simple AG'

    I'd like to start experimenting once I've got a few down. I've got Home Brew Beer by Greg Hughes, but the recipes look more complex than I'm ready for. Nice! Thanks very much. Geterbrewed got back to me and are going to lump the two orders together, but definitely using this in the future.

    After 'Have a go at a simple AG'

    And forgot the hops! 😩 I've emailed to see if I can add on, but not sure I'll get a reply before it ships. That's what I get for ordering at 1am. Get Er Brewed only do pellets in the recipe creator, and I wanted fresh, so left it until after. Oops.

    After 'Have a go at a simple AG'

    Well that escalated quickly. £14 on ingredients, and spent £60... That'll please my wife.

    After 'Have a go at a simple AG'

    Thanks very much for these! Yeah that's where I've been looking - I just baulked at the £6.75 (?) delivery. Happy to pay it, just not for a £5 order. This is certainly my aim going forward. I used to be a chef, for a while, and I enjoy experimenting in the kitchen. I'd like to get into...

    1kg hops raffle ENDED please see other

    Just joking. I thought I'd try for a freebie too... Should have emoji'd it for luck.

    You know those FVs with taps which are going out of date...?

    1kg hops raffle ENDED please see other

    Giveaway will always sell better than raffle. That said, I'd rather put a quid in for a raffle once a month than wave my hand for a giveaway every six months.

    After 'Have a go at a simple AG'

    Hi all, I've sourced a pan (from the school kitchen) to cook up clibit's 'Simple AG' and I'm about to buy the ingredients to make the mash, but I feel spending over £6 to get under £6's worth of ingredients isn't too clever. So I figure it would be worth getting ingredients for the next couple...

    I think with the brewzilla you can basically order a second malt pipe and cut it in half.

    Now if the top three could all send out these beers to the rest of us mere mortals, for a nominal fee, we'll be set!

    June Forum Comp - Dark Beers

    Haha this genuinely made me laugh out loud. I went to a dark beer festival at my local a couple of years back. I drank 22 3rds over the course of the evening, went home and passed out head first onto the toilet. That left a mark.

    Are you doing the x factor pause thing?

    Brewzilla (and alternatives) - in stock anywhere?!

    I'll have all the time in the world in a couple of weeks. At the moment, I'm working until about 1am most days. Problem with that 'extra work' I took on is that it squeezed out the time I had for my normal work. Of course, I'm not paid for the holidays though 😉 Looking at the 35, but only...

    Thanks - sadly though, that's over £500!

    Brewzilla (and alternatives) - in stock anywhere?!

    Hi, I'm thinking of going all in and getting a Brewzilla (or something with a different sticky label on the front), but they all seem to be out of stock literally everywhere, and all back in stock in late August / early September. Is this just a side effect of lockdown and people home brewing...
