Ok this is the easiest design for one that I have found and will definitly attempt to make onve my beer is ready. Just need to figure out what tyre valve I need to attach to the air needle. Wont be using the copper pipe, just a normal bottler. Just hope it works with a pressure keg

That looks very good and cost effective, exactly my cup of tea. Just wondering though do you not need a rubber stopper at the top of the bottle in order to counter pressure properly? Also what about purging the o2 out of the bottle. If you havent got access to a blichmann type thing could you...

Brilliant answers, thank you. Just a quick one, what do you use to siphon the wort

Great great post!! This is so perfect for me here. Am starting a kit next week (once my ferm fridge is built) but after that I was gonna just get on with all grain. Innitially was gonna do biab as I just do not the room for anything bigger but this actually looks easier. Just wanted to...

This is exactly the dilema I have. I want to make a few batches over the next month or two so I do not have to worry about making any over the summer while I get on do some work in the house. The only place I have to store them is the cupboards in the shedb but should actually get a "summer"...

Here are the instructions by the way http://onebeer.net/minitap_howto.shtml

Was wondering if anyone hs built this? Space is limited around mine and I thought this would be absoloutly perfect http://onebeer.net/homebrew/images/minitap.jpg I know a lot of you will think its pointless but it looks like a god send for us with little space. Any opinions?

So with extract do you get the variety that you do with grain ( I appreciate it will be slightly less). If for example I wanted to follow a pils recipe, could I with extract? Also is it, cost wise, less than kit brewing if you are doing all the mash yourself? Taking away the initial costs of...

Hi everyone. As I have said before planning on starting my homebrewing soon and gonna be using can kits just to get upto speed on the whole sanitising etc What I was wondering though, as I have been reading for hours and not quite getting it, is what is the difference in the types of brewing...

Thanks for the reply guys. I may have salvaged somewhere for a fridge now since I had a good look around the house for "wasted spaces" Will have to start looking into how to convert one of these and if its practicle. One question I have though, when they say the temperature for fermentation...

Not in the garage, but how would the immersion heater work?

Ok so I am now close to starting my brew after reading for what seems like a thousand hours, lol. Wanted to ask a quick question about lager fermentation. Where I intend on brewing has a min/max temp of between 21-23c. Obviously lager fermentation needs a cooler temeprature and I have no...

Hi everyone. Am still learning before I attempt my first batch so please bare with me. I have read that if I bottle condition my brew I will need to give it a couple of weeks (until the bottle is hard) somewhere warm and then take to the fridge (somewhere cold) to stop everything in its...

I assume it does as it says it "equalises the pressure" Here is a quote from the description It also comes with a unique Bottling Transfer System that equalises the pressure and allows you to bottle up your brew quickly without exposing it to any bugs. It even comes with 6 re-usable bottles to...

Yes I agree with everything you say, i am convinced and have no issues with that. But I need to do this as I said to make a point to the others. For example if I had to take the bottles with me somewhere the sediment would move around (not practical) Also a couple of the guys are "we only...

They will simply say "it aint the same" and I will not have made my point.

Hi everyone just registered after reading through a few hundred threads in order to familiarise myself into this world. I have never done homebrew before but I have always stuck up for it in the past no matter what people of said about it. Probably because of my italian background and...
