I'll get a Baker's Dozen just in-case anything happens to one :drink: :drink: :thumb:

I'll check on my way back tomorrow. Will get as many they have up to a dozen. :thumb: :drink:

Tesco's. I'm working away in Newbury at the moment. That's where I first found it but I think they sell it at all large Tesco's. Want me to bring a couple back? :drink: :thumb: Also picked-up from Waitrose's a few others not tried or available back home. Exmoor Beast, Exmoor Gold, St...

Punk IPA, Hop and London Pride (one of each) :drink:

Seen that one a few weeks ago. They've obviously got so stoned they couldn't be arsed to barrel/bottle it. Serves them right. Bloody hippies !!! (Forget I had long hair when I was a student. Take it back) :lol: :lol:

I also asked this question at a HBS and she said it not to use it on its own was for stills only. Use only the high alcohol yeasts that specify you can ferment then add a flavour eg Whisky, White Rum etc Perhaps it produces some nasty alcohols that can only be boiled off in the controlled...

The "Butterscotch" I believe is Diacetyl, seen as a flaw in some beers (lagers) and desired in others. Something to do with the yeast and is why Lagers are supposed to have a "Diacetyl" rest. to let the yeast "eat" it up. I think Aleman would be the Lager brewing expert around here. I just...

Have to agree. Just follow the instructions. No need to rack until you've done everything on the instructions, let it clear and then rack carefully. Once racked then leave for a day or two or if all the racked wine is clear then transfer straight to bottles. The racking will only make sure...

Just thought :hmm: :hmm: Are you using the machine using the administrator logon or privileges ?? Maybe you should setup a logon with reduced privileges as this is one of the ways viruses can still get about more easily. It's a bit of a pain installing programs as you have to type in the...

I also use Avast on Windows machines and it's done me fine. My best solution was to run a dual booting machine and use Linux Mint http://www.linuxmint.com/index.php when I don't need to use Windows, which is most of the time for all the things required except when only a windows program is...

Now if Aleman is recommending a "Kit Beer" I'll add this to my bookmarks as one to do!! :thumb: :thumb:

I cannot recommend this more. VLC (VideoLan) is just the smallest best software for playing any media type. It's not flash with a GUI interface but just WORKS!! I found it whilst looking for the best player for Linux Mint and it just did the job. On my Windows machines I only use it as I...

You're only round the corner from Morrison's Wez so I guess I'll not even get a sniff!!! :lol: :lol:

My neighbour likes Cider so I gave him half a pint of TC yesterday. He thought it was that good, he wants a couple of Cornies from Norm and is getting 25L of AJ tomorrow as well as Cider yeast. I donated him a fermenting bucket. Looks like I may have got a newbie brewer on the block. :thumb...

I particularly like my sexy name!!! :lol: :lol:

I'd be very careful assuming that they all drink crappy high volume USA Lager. :nono: The USA has some of the World's best Craft Brewers and believe me some of their beers are fantastic. Almost every State has a raft of microbreweries that supply their bars, pubs and there are also quite a...

Assuming your thermometer is calibrated or it's back round in circles !! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Wez, a work colleague had a joke come through with this picture. First thing I did was laugh at how similar she was to your avatar!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: King and Queen of brewing??? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Now you'll have to start another forum IPA brew Wez :lol: :lol: :lol:

I went to a local "Unplugged" gig about 14-15 years ago and Show of Hands headlined. I'd obviously never heard of them but by the second song I thought they were great. I bought the CD's next time I went to the bar to make sure they didn't sell out. Here's some links...
