ahhh how I miss that place back 10 years ago I lived behind it I remember when they put the micro brewery in there. was gr8 to be able to jump the fence to get home, I had though about putting a gate in ( shame I was renting :( )

another vote for Coopers

thanks for the helps peoples, going to have a crack at this in the not to distant future :)

I read somewhere that it has Saaz flavour in it

I am happy with mine done a couple of brews and no different to using the old FV i thing i have noticed though is that it looks like I have scratch the bottom of it with the spoon when mixing up my Wort I called Coopers about it and with how I sterilise it they think it should be ok

easy fixed, just drink it quicker

I need to get some of that Trinidad Scorpion :)

I am guessing that it would not make any difference in the fermenting apart from cleaning up lol and give your brew set up a massive bling factor if you keep it nice and shiny

thanks guys, will grab one next time I am there and see what it is like. don't normally drink Cider so tasting results might not be the best hehe

lol might have to give it to her son to taste then

ok massively dumb question for the kit version how much water do you need to use for the boil for the hops??

My MiL was cleaning up a bit and going through and sorting out stuff from her late husbands stuff ( has taken her 14 years to get in to it and that is after my Mrs and I have offered to start helping out when she was ready ) we found this a case of Mercury Cider and a few extra bottles...

have not noticed any issues however I only use FF for developing in Joomla

but dam it was nice on a 31deg + day :) not sure why just used 2 drops in each bottle as I normally do
