Awesome, thank you sir. I might mount them both in the lid of mine, albeit as close to the edge as possible to aid in sturdiness as the 60l lids are quite large

It wouldn’t be rated to any great pressure, seen a few blokes on YouTube do it though Wide eyes did you put ur posts through the lid on ur vessel?

Morning all, been away from the game for a while but just getting back into things so pardon potential silly questions. I’ve bought a braumeister Speidel fermenter, 60l and want to look into closed transfers to kegs when I get underway. With this in mind I’ve bought a few spare caps for the...

i had a height issue in my fermentation fridge at one stage(from memory) so used glad wrap and rubber bands (all joined together to make one large desired size band) no issues at all. continued to do this on one of my fermenters when i cracked the lid near airlock

oops sorry...

Yeah i have the concealed, thought they were the way to go, have done the mod to bypass boilover cutout thing as well. so lag it and just always leave it on? the camping mat wont melt? lol i dont calculate, i just fill with water till it looks good :) mind you going off the pictures in this...

hey has anyone found that the crowns dont have a very vicious boil? thus you need to boil a bit longet to try and reduce down to an acceptable voulme to OG? my first few batches came out with like 26ltrs at 1.030.(efficiency may be partly to blame also)

^^ not a bad idea actially. u just use a hop sock or something fine to filter? i know my sock is pretty fine so i think that could work well, and waist less shuggaz :)

nah mate i havnt tried it yet, will do next weekend id say(providing current batches are done by then). thanks for the calc too. so now ive got starters sorted need to work on getting above 65% eff :P

awsom info, thanks guya

aaahhhh nice, thanks lads, so its important to get it out before hop additions right?

Gents, im sure this has probably been covered before, but when typing in "yeast starter" into search function there a quite a few results :( so since moving to AG i havnt got any DME laying around anymore so i cant make starters, and TBH i havnt been bothering, i just rehydrate dry yeast, and...

hahaha sounds similar to my first baib, ive done bout 10 now, and it does get easier, but so far every brewday has problems/glitches/little things that can be done better, all small things but hey im learning, and makeing beer :) efficiency seems to be a big poblem for me at the moment, though...

hahahaha righto cheers all for the confirmation.... brew day is till on!!!!!! :) red

Hey all, yesterday i had the better half grab a recipe from Ross on her way home, i failed to mention that the liquid yeast needs t be kept cold, as a result it sat in her car untill i got home from work :( it was in the car for about 5-6 hours, at around 18 degrees, ish. would it still be...

cheers guys ill just go as per recipe and c how it goes, if its not bitter enough ill bump up for next brew.

hey guys, did my first brew in new urn last night, didnt really think about hcf, just thought more water so more hops..... giving it more thought now i think ive done it wrong. the denser the water the less bitterness extracted? thus watered down wort(pre boil 35ltrs ish) would extract more...

gee i wish i read this yesterday, i now have about 30ltrs of what i can only assume will be 2.5-3% golden ale, due to very little boil off :(

ran into a few problems, brew finished at 1.006, maybe temp is ****** or my process is ****, will try a 68 mash next time. and im sure i had some cascade hops left to dry hop with but there was none there except for an unlabled packet which would be either cascade or centenial. so i used that...
