Will be fine. They are a great kit, I just put one down today, they are ready to drink quick too which is a bonus!

To get a similar flavour I use coopers pale ale kit, some galaxy hops steeped for 10mins before hand them added to the brew and US - 05 yeast. Gives a nice flavour that is recognizable in the style of 150 lashes.

TWOC is great, the guy behind the counter brews and had some great info when I went there. My favorite is Malthouse is welshpool, always have good service there and never felt ripped off. There is another store in Armadale but never have I shopped there so can't comment. Plenty of places around...

I made the TCS coopers stout with light and dark malt, after 2 month's in the keg it started to taste nice, I enjoyed it but my mates who dont like dark beer didn't enjoy it much. Didnt have a lot of body the beer and was a bit strange having such a thin dark beer.

Pixiescam, Make sure your lid is on super tight, if it isn't you may not get that satisfying bubbling sound from the airlock. I have one FV lid that has a small leak in it and i never get that bubbling sound coming from the airlock. The beer will still ferment though and you can still drink it!

I think you will find your beer with a distinct fruity flavour, you might really like it and want to replicate this unique flavour you could be creating! :beer:

My last brew was in the FV for at least 50 days.Tasted fantastic. I am very lazy though, and I kicked my self for not having put it in a keg sooner, It was a Coopers Pale Ale can. I guess when you have beer on tap and kegs with beer in them the motivation isnt there. I wouldnt do this in summer...

Hey All i backed the pressure of to about 2/3rds of a bar and then bled each keg, after which the beer poured nicely and was nicely carbonated :)

Hey Guys! Thanks for the fast responses! I will put the pressure down on my regulator and see if this improves things. I used a Kitchen jug when I measured out my brew, It was a 2 litre jug though, and it is quite possible that I had an extra 2L in there then I was expecting. When I kegged it...

Hey Guys! A bit of an update, I have both brew's in kegs and they seemed to go ok, they both finished at 1002(not sure if i read correctly) so I am assuming they both fermented fully. I have a few questions about the keg pressures though, I have a harris regulator and at the moment it in the...

Hey Guys thanks all for such a quick response! Im not too fussed on it having a lower alcohol content, I was hoping for a bit more but c'est la vie :rolleyes: . I soaked the lids for 30 mins in sanitizer, said to soak for at least 15-20 mins so will see how we go. It is quite cool in perth...

Hi All After much lurking in this forum for the last few years I have taken the plunge and gotten back into brewing. I bought off ebay a second hand keg setup with two fermenters and all the kit needed to do allgrain at a steal of a price, so I think im setup now for where ever this takes me...
