    South Cheshire Ingredients Buying Club

    Hi Guys, Shroppie from Middlewich here, I brew lagers mostly so could use a few sacks of lager malt and I can pick up the Munich malt to finish off that sack. (not done one for a while). It looks as though we are not far apart? Cheers

    Boiling Ring Cut Out

    It does have a rotary switch which when turned raises or lowers a set of contacts allowing more or less current to the element. The insides of this unit can be seen on Lincat Electric Boiling Ring Spare Parts. The model is as above, the single 2kw. Lynx 400 range. Thanks...

    Boiling Ring Cut Out

    Many thanks for your reply. This particular unit does not appear to have the cut out you describe. The Lincat spare parts page for this unit does not mention a cutout at all! Very odd? Thanks shroppie

    Boiling Ring Cut Out

    Bridestone Star Spangled Spanner AAIPA 21/05/11 with Photos

    That should be a stunner. APA`s really catching on now. Interesting when they mellow out. They can become very subtle beers indeed. If you can leave it long enough. Look forward to trying it. Shroppie

    Heater/Chiller units

    I am not an engineer so some of your reply is over my head. So, in straight forward language, what would I need to build a similar unit to the Morebeer conical which is temp. controlled? I already have a Minibrew conical. Thanks, s

    Heater/Chiller units

    Hello All, Does anyone know anything about the chiller/heater units on the MoreBeer conical fermenters? Or something similar that a Ranco or Johnson controller can run attached to the vessel? Thanks

    Minor ****-up (hopefully)

    Hello Jodrell, The extra sugar will not affect your Boddys. Actually it`s not a bad stab at Boddys bitter, pre InBev of course.If anything there`s a bit too much crystal in it. 85gms. is plenty. As I am sure you are aware Boddingtons had quite a few pubs in the `Joderell area before it all went...

    Timoth Taylor Lanlord recipe hunt!!

    This has won a few awards including Best Clone so should get you there. It will produce a paler beer than the commercial so you can match the colour at the bottle/keg stage with steeping grains or caramel. There is no disgrace in using it, you`d be surprised at how many do. Note; All temps in...
