Got a Ninja 9-in-one large size jobbie as a Xmas present. Brilliant device, used all its functions with mostly great results. Took great care of it. 15 months later, the convection fan went pop (literally) - out of warranty. Contacted Ninja to get it repaired, expecting I could pay for it...

They all sound fantastic! Double Dancing Duck IPA, please.

Brewed that 10/10/21, 2wks+2wks+4wks so far. Totally stock, as per instructions, kept temp in the 22-24C range for ester flavours. Very nice, classic wheat beer flavour, swirl around the last bit in the bottle and pour to get the proper sediment effect. Will do again, may customise with some of...

Really enjoying these video updates, amazing project to watch happening. Same avatar image for me on YT

Great write-up, thanks for the tons of suggestions here.

West Coast IPA, please. Lets hope the gods smile on me. Thanks for this giveaway.

Thanks for the updates, Nidger. Sounds (and looks) really decent. I have 2 (glass) bottles of my first batch left, a year old this week. Saving them until Xmas to drink with my dad (regular Guinness drinker) who I haven’t seen since Bad Stuff Happened. I noticed every aspect of it improved with...

Just spotted this on eBay, and really like the way the seller has put it together. To be clear, not me selling, and no connection between me and the seller. Just thought others might like to see the approach they took...

Lucky Freedom Grapefruit APA please :-)

Doing two winter brews this year: MYO Irish Stout (as per instructions, i.e. just kit + 1kg brewing sugar) and Coopers Devils Half Ruby Porter (with 1kg dark DME + 250g muscovado, no brewing sugar). First time for both, so will see how it goes. Had a porter as a taste test the other day (only...

Did that last autumn, and it was very good indeed. I'd say the 500g of dextrose is right; I used 1kg and it might have made it a bit thin. Did take a little while after bottling for the body to develop. Only medium spraymalt in stock at the time, so went for that (500g). Your 1kg of extra dark...

PMs received with huge thanks. Just about to disappear for the weekend (family visit) but tons to unpack and chat about. See you both in the PMs. Reiterating my thanks, really appreciated.

Both, I’d also be really interested in any info about emigrating to France. Lots of long-term thoughts about it. Same position here, went to school in FR and speak fluently but partner doesn’t. If there’s anything you wouldn’t mind PMing me with as well, I’d appreciate. Thanks.

Hi, been doing this just a year myself. 12 brews in, and I'm totally hooked. If you have a handy Wilko near you, have a go at their Thirsty Devil red ale - it's lovely. See review section for my review. This forum has *tons* of useful info and helpful people sharing experience and tips.

Please count me in. Redneck sounds amazing. They all do, in truth. Thanks.

One scenario that not a lot of people know. When cycling clubs are out on a club run (i.e. dozens of them riding together, often on Sunday mornings), they sometimes ride two-abreast so that the overall distance that cars need to overtake them is halved. Intended to reduce inconvenience for...

Cannot tell you just how useful your posts have been for me. Learned such a lot. Retrospective thanks.

Hi, my first review so hope it's OK. A few mentions of this kit, but no review that I could find. What's in the kit? 1.8kg malt 6g yeast (type not identified) 10g Cascade hop pellets Instruction booklet How I brewed it Kit malt + kit yeast + 500g medium spraymalt DME + 1kg brewing sugar -...

I'm in, please. They all look amazing.

Novice here, so still learning and exploring. But max £25ish seems appropriate for premium kits, maybe a few quid more if it sounded unique or really interesting. Rationale: I've now made a few surprisingly decent one-canners, pimped with spraymalt/dextrose/hops, totalling £20-22ish per batch...
