:cheers: hi guys n gals,just started john bull indian pale ale using 1kg of geordie beer enhancer in place of brewing sugar and have temperature set to 20 degrees raised a good head filling all available space left in fermenting bin. :party:seems to me the hardest thing to do now is wait.however should anybody wish to post me any further tips or ingredient suggestions they will be aprieciated.
 
i kegged my jb ipa on wednesday and the early signs are good, tried a wee glass and as far as warm flat beers go it was impressive, no twang to it either, cant wait for a pint of it! gd luck with it
 
:cheers: Hi guys n gals,just kegging up my john bull ipa tommorro hydrometer readings are a constant ten looks like begining to clear no bubbles rising.was planning useing plain old sugar to prime keg 3oz in 2 pints boiled water.though any suggestions on primer would be greatly apprieciated flavour tips ect any thing :cheers: . Thanks for reply to earlier post.
 
ive kegged mine as i say, tried it yesterday to check carbonation and was still flat, the psi needle on my reg isnt working so i dont know what psi its been at, ive increased it now and will leave for a while. anyways, after trying i would recommend priming with brown sugar, the beer does have a nice hoppy flavour( well i think thats what is) i think brown sugar would complement it better than white sugar, or even 50% of each.
