What with everything thats going on at the moment ive only just seen this. Nice work on the fridge Sean. :thumb:

The simple answer to your question is yes. Altho i found that if you use moss in the boil, and leave your beer to condition for around 6 weeks it will be perectly clear. In my honest opinion there isnt any need to add finnings to beer, altho some people will disagree.

Welcome to THBF, Spun :thumb:

Silly question Tom, but what was the temperature of the must you put into your DJ?

The best thing you can do if you do get a burco is to replace the tap that comes with it. See picture below, all you need is a tank connector and a ball valve, total cost about £8.

Yes i have a old burco tea urn which i used as a boiler, all you need to do is disconect the therostat and your away. Just remember that if you aiming for a 23 - 25ltr brew length then you will need a a 30ltr boiler. Here is a picture of my Burco. Altho since upgrading to a 10gal boiler all i...

Dont worry about the lack of froth. Ive got a couple og galons of ribena wine on the go and there isnt any froth on either of them, but im getting about 30 bubbles a minute through the air lock.

~Leave it alone, let it clear. When its clear bottle.

Brownie mate, the colour is normal. once its finished fementing it will go back to the apple juice colour. As for the lack of froth, well ive only ever made 2 batches of TC and both of those almost came through the air lock.

Never pour the beer back into the FV, you run the risk of infection by doing that. God man, dont you know anything, samples must be drunk. That is the LAW.

Well no surprises the good old S04 is doing exactly what it says on the packet. A decent head after about 9 hours. I decided to move it to a young wine fementing bucket, as these hold around 30ltrs. Now the T58 went off like a rocket, within 4 hours it looked like this, Now ive no idea what...

Got a bottle of this through the post on Friday, now Mick advised me to leave it for a week before sampleing it, anyone who knows me will tell you that, that will never happen. Ok this isnt going to be a very good review as im no expert. If its good ill drink it, if its bad it will go down the...

Could not make it to MD's brewday today as Mrs Siv wasnt feeling to good. But this afternoon she picked up and felt guilty about me missing out so suggested that i get a brew on myself. The Grain bill - Pale Malt - 6000grms Crystal Malt - 340grms Chocolate Malt - 240grms The Hops -...

Sorry i couldnt make it mate, i was well gutted. But the good news is Lisa started to feel better around 3 oclock. And she felt that guilty about me missing your brew-day, she let me get one done.

Andy I personly would say anything between 24 and 48 hours.
