Hi There,
Wow what a great forum!!! I've been thinking about getting a home brewing kit for a while and after reading the posts of the enthusiests here It's made me even more convinced to go ahead and get one.
I'm going to get the Mexican Cerveza first because I love that style of beer and Corona is my absolute fave!! (yes I'm a girl!!)
I have a couple of questions:
Can you get 375ml PET bottles with screw top lids?
I read a post where someone mentioned using bundaberg ginger beer diet bottles as the screw top lids are the same but I'm to scared they will explode so would rather go with plastic at this stage.
In the same Mexican Cerveza thread someone mentioned adding glacier hops for lemon flavour. I'm curious as to how this is done? As I'll only have a basic kit will I need to add the hops to the boiling 2 litres of water then put it into the fermenter thingy?
If that's correct how much Glacier should I use?
Thanks for reading, no doubt I'll be back with more questions later.
Cheers,
Maxy
