So I wanted to get a start on my second batch 'make more then you can drink' so to speak. Used an Aldi brand still spring water £1 for 4x2L bottles £8 from Wilkos. Nothing amazing method wise, just followed the tin again. Ronseal style.

It's not much but here's my newbie 'stash' well.. it's more of a shopping haul before I started my second batch today. Spent a little more in Wilkos then SWMBO would have liked but then again I convinced her with promises of rose :thumb:

It seems to have stopped fermenting. Virtually no airlock activity now. I would go buy a second DJ for 'racking' but I'm due to add stuff tomorrow and I don't have time to go buy one till the weekend. I like your wording on the dead yeasties Snokrystal. Think I might take a few sips silence for...

I saw that too. Guy seems a bit odd heh

So I'm adding the rest and 'degassing' this Wednesday. What is a good way to degas? Also I noticed there's a layer of white/grey sediment on the bottom of the DJ. Sugar? is that normal?

1845 down, what next? :)

Looks good :thumb:

SWMBO and I went to Tesco just now to celebrate my last day of overtime :D Mine Hers She opened the Golden glory first, preferred the smell to the taste (still she digs the taste too) Can't say I'd drink much of it, bit too floral for my tastes, but glad she found a new'un she likes. She...

I have an unopened bottle of Duff my wife's parents got for me from somewhere abroad years back, can't remember where. Apparently there's a guy brewing Duff in Argentina who's under legal action from The Simpsons creators *shrugs* I wouldn't be surprised if there's a few people using the label...

Welcome to the forum :thumb:

Welcome to the forum :thumb: I too am a fellow newbie and as I've been warned, cheap booze is all well and good but the hobby can get impulsively more expensive. I have a DJ on the go and just want to go and get more!

Had this on tap in Camden beginning of the year. Did not approve :sick: Even swapped it with a mate for his [censored mass produced lager] Some nice suggestions coming tho :D

I'm curious too seems some of the sponsor sites have similar deals on expired date gear

For 2,200 beer tokens I'd like to think it is. But then again I guess there is a difference between the 500 and 2.2k builds. 12 weeks to build, they must put some serious manpower into it.

Topped the demi off Wednesday night. Think I might have added a bit more then 3 pints at the start, seems closer to 5. Opss. Was actively fizzing and bubbling this morning as it was when I had company round and showed off my brew last night. Might have convinced someone else to come over to the...

Seems I have a bit of a list to work through :thumb:

I have a theory, the more I drink the less I care about my belly (a friend affectionately once called it 'a gas tank for a whoop **** machine') That said I'm still in my youth and should probably look after myself a bit better I've been meaning to get a cholesterol test done.

:thumb: Sounds great. Shame you live far away though

10 DJs! Sounds like a man on a mission :thumb:
