    Right....I've ordered thus far, 1m of 6mm copper pipe to make the retaining ring and a 1.2m x 1m piece of stainless steel 40 mesh. Not being very experienced at this sort of stuff I'm trying now to source suitable stainless steel nuts and bolts. A lot of the ones I've found have Nylock...

    york brewerys guzzler

    I definately agree with Mumbler here. I get to drink Guzzler most weeks at one of my locals....it's a great, easy drinking low gravity beer. So, the initial recipe gives you far to great an OG and ABV. I also agree with Mumbler on the bitterness. Guzzler is quite bitter, but you have to...

    Nice one Aleman. I need to measure the false bottom when I get home tonight.....maybe buy a custom length from that last seller you linked. If you wanted to split a sheet of the 40 mesh, I'd be pleased to do so.....but let me measure up first and see what would be needed. This is the link to...

    Hi, I am gradually upgrading my brewing and recently bought a plate chiller. I've seen a few references to making sure that no large particles reach the plate chiller and I'm a little concerned how I might prevent this. My boiler is a converted thermobox and it has a false bottom. I think this...

    PERBAC - peracetic acid

    Hi, I have managed to get hold of some PERBAC. It's been supplied with a data sheet; mainly health and safety info....but I can't interpret it in to any kind of dilution rates. ACETIC ACID 10-30% HYDROGEN PEROXIDE SOLUTION 10-30% PERACETIC ACID 1-5% Evil stuff though, the vapour is irritating...

    PUNK IPA

    This was my hop schedule for a Punk inspired IPA that I brewed 2 weeks ago. I used an all malt bill for an abv of approx 5.5%. As others have mentioned, there is quite a chinook hit in Punk....but I decided to go with amarillo for bittering. There is more than 50% of the IBU comming from...

    Those two fellas on the book look like something from an early Carry On film.....Sid James and Kenneth Williams anyone?? :lol: As for the old farts; I'm very glad they are still around.....I wouldn't be making good beer like this if they weren't. Pass me that rollie 8-)

    Liquid yeasts

    I usually make up a 300ml starter and then step this up again to 1 litre. Once fermented out I put it in the fridge to allow it to settle for 2 days, decant the spent wort and then top up with distilled water that has been boiled and cooled. Re-suspend the yeast in this and then decant in to 4...
