Hi all, just checking that on your first use the bottom of the vessel marked where the elements are? I just have an outline on the metal of the shape of the heating elements. Completely no problem for me, as long as it's meant to happen (also known as - did I do anything wrong).

I’m currently just heating/pumping water and starsan through in anticipation of brew day tomorrow! does anyone else find that the camlock connector can pop off when the machine is nudged?

Mine arrived too acheers. Thanks

No probs, thanks for the update and busting yourselves getting them ready to go

Hi Paul, thanks - just to check I had an email today saying that Mine will be delivered tomorrow, should I not expect it? No problem just checking acheers.

Great thanks, I’ll give it a whirl (although not sure about the overflow pipe as I haven’t seen it yet, sure it will click when I do!)

Hi all, Im eagerly anticipating my new Robobrew from Angel Homebrew in the next couple of weeks but I have some grain left over for stovetop brewing which will make 2 batches (of different beers) of 10 litres each. Is there any way to brew a 10l batch or do I need to either do 2 more stovetops...

Last time I did this (10litres) I had major problems draining the wort from the grain and it took an age. Any tips?

Any rules/advice on freezing? I did look into some of the liquid yeast packs but couldn’t justify the cost but, I guess this is the way around that.

Some great replies here, thanks guys. I feel like I’m going to be the guy with all the gear and no idea and might pick Up a flask and stirring plate. I guess doing this can radically cheapen brews?

Wow, a couple of thousand younger than we are! Happy to meet! Are you managing to hold meetings at the moment? We’ve not had a meeting since January and similar to you I should be going through the Chair this year (December) but not much chance of that. First time so I’m hoping to delay to next...

Hi all, I know a lot of members seem to use yeast from previous or commercial beers in their brewing but Im a bit confused how you go about it. Can someone really Janet and John it for me? Do you need a stirring plate? How long does it last? whats the process of keeping and storing? If you...

Hi Chippy, no objection from me if you lock the thread. Never come across this (In this way) before. :confused.:

Okay cool, I didn’t know they were a nettle relative, pub quiz gold!

I’m going to give this a go at the allotment. Do I just stick in the ground over winter or does it need some TLC?

I think a lot of that stewards serving lark has stopped now, can’t disagree about the food though!!! Never had so many Sunday roasts! yeah this rule of 6 means that most just aren’t meeting. Add into that members passing and others who can’t be bothered any more and it’s pretty bleak! Chippy...

No problem with an answer - the press make it out as being part of ‘The New World Order’ but the reality is it’s just a bunch of blokes getting together, wearing a pinny, eating, drinking and having a raffle. The culmination is that it’s the second largest contributor to charity after the...

Yeah I guess you could get it to be a bit cliquey, we do have a couple of coppers in our hall, although they’re outweighed by the pensioners now :laugh8:

Should I be concerned at this level of knowledge!?

I think Tripel Karmaleit was mine, not sure if it was part down to company and location though!
