There's quite a bit on the net about this. It depends if you're using hop cones or pellets to some extent

And 66 could do this?

Still for sale. If anyone is interested, let me know if you think the price is a bit high

Dave Line, great homebrew writer that he was, had a Lo Alc beer recipe. Think it was in his book 'Beer Kits and Brewing'. I'll see if I have a copy.

Edit - Sorted now. I've bought a set, but can sell one plate on if anyone wants one

With the newer basket I'd guess it's easy to overrun the wort return and for it to seep out of the sides rather than through the grain? Is that what you thought too?

Thanks, I'm trying to roll back on the expenditure though. I am planning on using a rolled plate without the overflow pipe (blocking the hole, adjusting the flow rate) as the pipe gets in the way.

G30 rolled plate (bottom one, doesn't have the handles). Replaces the silly bendy one that required the tedious silicon seal. Brand new, still boxed (I only needed one plate). Will post (UK mainland) £40inc p&p

To resurrect this thread, does anyone have a rolled top plate they'd be prepared to sell? Or, alternatively would anyone like to split buying a pair do we get one rolled plate each?

Apparently Scottish & Newcastle did use a hop once. Just one 😉

A good start would be to treat your water with a Campden Tablet - this gets rid of the chlorine and chloramine. Also, try wrapping the closed rim if your fermenter with clingfilm - this'll prevent any leaks & force any gas through the bubbler so it'll be easier to tell it's fermenting

Maybe a silly question, but which way up does the bottom plate need to go - rolled lip up or down? 🤔

Although there are naysayers, based on other recipes I've used saccharin sweeteners. In small amounts it's very good at taking the edge off an unsweet or dry beer. Imagine 1 tablet in a pint of tea, & go from there.

Yes, and hardens the seal a bit to make it less 'boingy' & prone to slip off the plate.

Strangely, I thought this was normal

I'd prefer beer that wasn't chronical to be honest 😉😂

I'd thoroughly recommend a bottling cane/wand if you've not already got one

Final stage of my brew today. Bottled an Imp Stout & created labels

with you on this. Good service. I do like they have extra info on their ingredients too

I spotted those too - need a look at. Otherwise the beer is clear other than floaters
