hi all, im after advice on fonts like the type on the kegerator, how much i need to pay for a good one and where to get it? if you have a good one or a not so good one please reply thanks.

i have made the muntons yorkshire bitter yet to taste it, what other muntons range beers are a must make muntons beer your coments would be much appreciated cheers.

dose liquid malt add any better taste to the brew rather than the dried malt (light,amber,wheat) the reason i am asking is that DME is more cost efficient, and LME is hard to come by sometimes.

sounds good thanks

does any one have an extract wheat or honey wheat recipe looking for a redback or beez neez cheers

might ditch the bag idea sounds like a manifold is the only way to go i dont want to make it harder for myself. thanks.

I forgot to add i have a drain plug on my esky and was planing to drain via a hose to my 50L kettle could that be a plan. thanks for the info.

using my esky can i use a big enough bag to fit the esky to mash in instead of fitting a manifold, like the BIAB but wanting to sparge. cheers

OK, where do we get it from and what else did you mix in with it? its in this spread sheet

Hi all, i just finnished a keg of my first DrSmurto's golden ale brew, it would have to be one of the best kit beer i have made it was a winner at my house i would recommend anyone who hasn't tried it to put one down, i will be putting another down soon. cheers.

Don't worry about it taking to 8 days, mine ferments at about 20 deg for 8 to 10 days and i do hydro reading on the 8th and then on the 10th day and readings should be the same (e.g 1010) which is my routine and works fine for me, so follow the advice of the other guys and get a hydrometer it...

Sorry i have to say it, there's not much you can do to improve SWAMP water. its just not a good brew.

try the Nottingham if you want but it would be much nicer with the lager yeast that comes with it which is meant to be a very good yeats by the way i used pearl hops with my kit, keep us up to date on how you go cheers benno

I agree its morgans cortes cerveza Chairman's Selection, i have brewed this before very easy drinking in the summer already has the lime flavour in it, but the yeast that comes with it is a lager yeast

I 2nd that, the golden ale is a popular beer at my place i recommend making it if you are into this style of beer, it is one of my favourites.
