Hello Everyone

Hello everyone,

I started making kits about a year ago and so far I've had success with a few of the woodfordes kit.
The Wherry is a great starter, brewed that twice and then moved on the the Admirals reserve, basically a hoppy Wherry.

I've recently done a Mangrove Jacks American IPA. The fermentation went off like a bomb to start with, it was then dry hopped for a week and put into a pressure barrel.

Tried it after two weeks but wasn't too impressed, however it's now been 4 weeks and it tastes so much better.

Currently trying a Coopers Blonde kit I picked up on the cheap and have a Festival Stag and Youngs IPA kits waiting to be done.

I'd love to move up to all grain soon but lacking the space at the moment. Can anyone recommend a half way? Brew in a bag maybe?

Cheers,

Matt

Brew in a bag is definitely a good way to brew all grain with limited space. It's also a lot less to clean at the end of the day. Check out the Brulosophy Podcast 32 http://brulosophy.com/podcast/ which is all about BIAB and gives good comparison for the technique compared to others

Also, use a more descriptive title for your post next time.

Also check out the “Have a go at AG” thread, makes it very simple

I moved his thread from the introduction forum as more members view this one hence the thread title.

Ah, that makes a lot more sense. I thought something like that might have happened
