    Brew2bottle Pork "crackling"

    Just got an email which days B2B are adding bar snacks. I'm all for a good pork scratching/pork crunch with a homebrew. I think they have found a great market for adding these to the list what do you guys think? Even if its add a few just to get the free p&p it definitely has to be a good move...

    Oh yeah that's what I've been doing this morning drilling the taps on the fridge and feed for the gas 😂 it's done now just need to get the kegs filled this afternoon and we are up and running just a waiting game then (the worst part)

    Pulled the pin

    Makes sense to me. I was just wondering if the JG disconnects let gas through when not connected but I guess from what you just said the answer is no. So I can have 1 disconnect attached to 1 keg and the other one just loose and not attatched (when removing the keg) and the gas will only...

    Sounds like you have done a few brews to warrent the step up to cornies. I have a question. I have 2 brews ready to go in I just went with the single regulator with a Y splitter if I put both brews in the keg at the same time and hook them both up to the gas say at 20 PSI to "burp" them and...

    Bad bottle? (bottle bomb)

    Update on this... Think it was a bad bottle I didn't have anymore explode and the resulting drink although young turned out a cracking drink. Inbetween finishing off a Woodfordes Nog and starting this think my Sunday as turned out great

    Last couple bottles of the Nog today. stashed one away to try in a few months I'm planning to move to AG in the next month or so but this is a kit I would make again a cracking drink for anyone considering making it.

    Bad bottle? (bottle bomb)

    I hope your right. Would it be worth moving them to the cold just to make sure? (I store my beer in the shed usually) Or just leave them at room temps for now? With this been a stout it doesn't need to be too carbed for my tastes is 3 days at fermentation temp enough to get some carbonation...

    Bad bottle? (bottle bomb)

    I try to use recycled glass bottles but been new to the brewing game I've made 10 batches so far in around 4 months to build up stock levels so as you can imagine that's a lot of beer to drink to get some empties so I did also but some new empty bottles. The bottle that popped was one of the...

    Bad bottle? (bottle bomb)

    I batched primed. 70g of sugar mixed with hot water placed in bottling bucket before syphoning the batch on top. I will be using at least 1 PET bottle from now on with every batch going forward to check carb levels. A lesson learned that's for sure

    Bad bottle? (bottle bomb)

    So I've just opened another one wrapped it in a towel and popped the cap off a little hiss of carbination but no foaming etc don't seem to be over carbed so I really am at a loss with this one. The bottles I used are not recycled and I bought them new so maybe I had a bad bottle. (hoping this...
