Thanks guys, got co2 so might give it a go. And pressure with co2 then put the barrel in the fridge.

It was a Bach prime, I think your correct not full finished fermenting. What you think of moving it to the keg?

Also asda swing top grolsh bottles 1.69.

I do the same thing at my golf club. The have a bin I put there for me to collect weekly, I also work in an office so collect all the coke, Pepsi , iron bru bottles plastic pet bottles work like a dream. I will never be spending 20 including delivery for 24 pet coopers bottles way too expensive.

Hi guys, I made a coopers draft lager 5gal on my last batch. Bottled. For some reason when pouring all I'm getting is froth and taken 20 or so minutes to settle. I can only think it's over primed. I was thinking of moving it all over to a pressure keg to see if that helps it settle. Any thoughts?

Thanks Slid. I took you advice on my latest batch coopers draft lager. just under 20 days in first. Then put into 2nd fermenter batch prime then bottled. I just had a wee taste last night and I couldn't tell it from draft in the pub. Just going to refrigerate it now for a few weeks before drinking.

Thanks slid. I did think it was something to do with time. The brewbuddy lager kit. 8 days fermentation 2 weeks 2nd in bottle. and 1 week in fridge.

Hi all, just had a bottle of my 2nd ever brew. My first brew was a lager kit that comes with brewbuddy and the 2nd was a 2 can Yorkshire bitter. more or less followed brewing instructions for both. With Both beers I have gotten the same fruity/licorice aftertaste not a bad taste but being new...

Thanks for the information guys. Just blasting a fan at it. Getting it down to 23c. 24c. On the bucket.

what if i just open the fridge door an inch - the cupboard is about 5 ft by 4 ft. and 8 ft tall. the fermentation bucket sits in front of the fridge door.

Thanks for the replies, great ideas. i did think about the fan so maybe worth a go. i think i need to find a better spot for future brews until things start to cool down. in scotland so wont be long. not often we worry about high temps. just had another look and the temp is going up to 25c and...

Hi all, looking for some advice. just started my 3rd brew - simple lager kit with some coopers enhancer 2. the cupboard i used for my first 2 brews temp was perfect sitting around 18 to 22c. now that things are starting to warm up for summer my cupboard is now above 24c and can only be getting...

Thanks, not something I have thought about nor noticed on my travels through forums. I should be able to pick something up in one of my local stores. (wee toon called Alness in north Scotland)

What mesh did you use? I had a wee look about and found all different grades and sizes. Cheers.

Hi all, just wanted to say hello. my names James and I'm a new home brewer. I have just got to the bottling stage of my first brew (40 pint brew buddy kit). I will let you all know how it goes on a more suitable thread.
