I have got myself a wilko pressure barrel and I want to put my hoppy copper bitter in it when the time comes. once the priming sugar carbs the beer up how long will it stay carbed? Also how do I keep it cold as it won't fit in the fridge and I don't fancy drinking warm bitter.? I should add that...

This is exactly what I did when I bought the little bottler. Just waiting for my second brew to finish so I can test it.:thumb:

From the look of it through the fermenter wall I can see some foam but I've not opened it to check so not sure if I'm honest.

Not sure if I have a problem. Noticed the airlock level has gone back to the same on both sides. I know I have a good seal as it bubbles when I press down on the fv lid. The level was higher on one side yesterday and there is a ring of scum around the inside so I know something has/is going on...

We'll I've done it. Will let it run now and post when i know how it's turned out.

Thanks guys. Drilled to 25mm and fits perfect.

So I've got my little bottler and I want to fit the tap to my bucket but does anybody know what diameter hole I will need to drill? I think 22mm will be ok but there are no instructions so I'm not sure.

I am looking to get my second brew on the go tomorrow. I have a wilko hoppy copper bitter kit and I want to add 1kg young's brew enhancer and 500gr medium dry malt extract. Will this be ok? I'm New to this and want to have a bit of a tinker with this bitter.

Tear.......

Is this it? http://www.the-home-brew-shop.co.uk/acatalog/Little_Bottler.html

Forgot to mention that my fermenter does not have a tap so will be using an auto siphon.

Thanks mate. Where can I get one? New to brewing and not came across one.

Might sound like a daft question but when bottling how close to full should a bottle be filled? I know it will need to be close to the very top but is to the bottom of the threads enough? Should mention, the bottles will be 500ml pet bottles. Cheers Jim

New to brewing and to the forum. Just thought I would introduce myself so you all know me once I start asking daft questions. I'm Jim from Liverpool and decided that I wanted to try my hand at homebrew. The main reason is because I don't go fishing in the winter so need a hobby to get me through...
