How many times have you brewed?

[Duxuk]

I'm just curious. I rarely buy bottles but I do like to drink a couple a day and often a little more at the weekend:). I don't know how many extracts I've brewed and I haven't brewed a kit since the '80s but my record books show 106 AG brews, mainly of 23 litres. Who drank all that?

A quick estimate based on current production suggests about 600 AG brews. Actually it'll be a fair bit more than that cos I'm not an alcoholic anymore. Plus kits in the days of yore, and wine....

I'm on brew no 36 actually I started on 15th nov 2014 :thumb:

I've been brewing just under two years (got my stuff at Christmas 2015) and I've done 2 kits, 2 extract brews and 14 AG plus 4 meads, a turbo cider and an alcoholic ginger beer

Coming up to a year at Christmas and I've got maybe 10 kits a turbocider which was today and 3 AG. Once my sack of malt arrives that'll be 5AG within two weeks. And probably another kit just to keep the fv busy while I'm at work.

Been on this forum 16 months so that was when I started, did about 15 kits, 3 extract and I just bottled AG8. 5 of the kits were 10 litres from Brewferm so that's about 450 litres, 900 pints give or take :-o

I have recorded 142 brews since starting HB again in 2013. 51 are using the GF and the ones preceding that would be kits, leading into pimped up kits and then onto partial mashes with 10L of AG plus a one can kit, made to 23L.

Perhaps a similar quantity when I brewed and made wine back in the early 1980's. Maybe more, then, but hard to say, given that drinking beer in a pub was a cheap and friendly option in those days.

Been brewing since Oct last year, 6 kits and 10 AG brews with my Grainfather

My last was my 25th all grain. Including wine, perry, cider, mead, kits, partial mash, ginger beer, etc..., I've done 60 brews.

11 all together since April this year , mainly tweaked single can kits, few extract recipes and a wine kit also,

 

[pvt_ak]

About 8 AG I think ! And loving it.
A good few TC’s and wines too.
Oh and a rather feisty ginger beer !

I did 3 kits between Christmas 2011 and summer 2016 then went AG, 4 stove-top batches and Grainfather batch 8 is fermenting just now. There's also been 15 batches split between mead, wine and ciders a lot of which have been undrinkable...

So 15 beer, 30 fermentation's in total. Quite surprising.

I've just put Brew 127 on this morning.

16 AG in there with the majority Extract, and a few vanilla kits.

Sixty in the just under three years, since I restarted.
I also brewed regularly for about 25 years starting in 1970 but have absolutely no idea how many batches I made up. It must have been a lot.

 

[Duxuk]

Interesting stuff. I'm doing about 25 AGs per year so I'm probably about average. AG 107 will be done this week.

 

[Clint]

29 in a year and a half. Where it's all gone I don't know.....

 

[jeg3]

47 brews since 2013. 26 of those have been AG

 

[chesters-mild]

Numerous kits over the years, good, bad & indifferent but now planning my 11th AG early Dec, all the AG beers have been so much better than any kit I've ever used. And Santa is bringing me my 2nd Corny Keg, so SHMBO says!
Cheers

3 kits, started in August this year. Hoping to get some BIAB gear for Xmas!
