    Hello from Brighton, UK

    Welcome Danny! Good to see another brewer on the south coast, I have no idea how a peanut butter IPA will turn out but I'm sure it will be great! You'll certainly find enough people here to help with any constructive feedback you might want, just make sure you brew enough of it :beer1:

    Recommend me a low alcohol (1% or less) commercial brew

    Not less than 1% but I think small beer co. beers are great. They usually come in at 2-3% so if you drank enough of them you would still get drunk, but good for mid-week. There lowest ABV at 1%, the Dark Lager, is very good...

    mm for grain crusher - where to start?

    Thanks for all the info! I tried it this weekend at 1.14 from the first suggestion and got a stuck mash even with 100g of rice hulls - unfortunately lost efficiency (aiming for 6.9% and got 6.3%) - although it was a big grain bill and had to remove some of the water once I put the grains in - I...

    mm for grain crusher - where to start?

    Thanks for the replies folks! I'll have a test this weekend - I have some crushed grain leftover from GEB I used to use so can have a visual look.

    mm for grain crusher - where to start?

    Hi all, I've recently bought a grain crusher and have set it up ready for my brew day this weekend. I know I'm going to have to dial in the crusher for my particular setup (35L brewzilla) but I was wondering what I should start with? The gradent goes from 0.64-2.41mm. The exact crusher is a...

    Confused between John Guest Enlargers or reducers

    Hey all, I have bought a couple of duotight inline regulators (these have pushfit 5/16") but my lines are 3/8". I'm looking at getting a reducer / enlarger to convert the duotight to 3/8" but I'm confused on which one I need? Can anyone tell me which one I need? it's out of: Enlarger | John...

    First Keezer Build

    Thats a shame, although if you fit the tap in the right spot it will be easy to put a second in if you indeed need it. Also for aesthetics two may look quite good even if it doesn't get used :) In answer to your other post, mines outside, although previously I had a soda stream setup which...

    First Keezer Build

    Yeh It's definitely a snug fit but they do fit nicely in - I'm also looking for a slimmer 10L-ish keg that might fit in there too but that might be a push. It does still have enough room to have a water bottle for the temp gauge and a spray bottle of sanitiser and a few useful things for easy...

    First Keezer Build

    I've been following this thread for a little while, and finally took the plunge myself - Lucky enough to get myself a black freezer so didn't need to do the vinyl in the end (Although I did have some and it made for a great thing to for the door to make contact with the wood and make a better...

    Upgrades?

    Did your fan help with first pour foaming issues in the end? I have the same problem and have been trying to work out what it is! I've ascertained its a temp problem as it doesnt happen if the keezer is running. Want to make sure it works though before I invest.

    Keezer build from small 56cm Width Chest Freezer

    Hey y'all I have the chance of picking up one of the small chest freezers (around 55-56cm depth and width) and was wondering if anyone has turned them into keezers, given they are so small? I don't mind putting a large collar around it to fit the keg('s - Hopefully i can fit two!) (Given the...

    Replicating skinnys 89 calorie beer

    Yes I saw the rice crispies - That was the first i'd heard of using them in a brew so will have to look that up a little more. I'm still just getting some of the basics down in AG brewing but all these extra additions are something to aspire to be doing soon!

    Replicating skinnys 89 calorie beer

    Nice! I was wondering how its possible - I don't think I've ever had a brew go lower than 1.010 - Although haven't done anything special to try and get it any lower. Thanks both of you- food for thought. MyQul I like the look of your recipe for the Blond Brut so may add something similar to the...

    Replicating skinnys 89 calorie beer

    Has Anyone attempted to create a low alcohol beer? I tried to understand how the skinny beer can be 89 calories at 4%, and it looks like the FG would have to be lower than 1. I did a bit of back calculations and for a 4% beer at ~89 calories you would need a grain bill for an OG of 1.029 and...
