I just had a look at that web site, i had know idea it was so complex, Nick goes on and on about stuff, and i just put the yep i am listening to you face on , maybe i should pay a little more attention to him talking about it. Then i wouldn't have to ask you all the questions on what to buy him.
I have saved the link, so when i have time i'll give it a read. He might just convert me yet :lol: . A family brewing together...umm does it happen? lol
Funnily enough, the 3rd edition in paperback has been sitting religiosly in the study (ie. toilet) to read each day and she never noticed.
Anyway getting back on topic, easily how to brew was what I have used along with (lets not get into vs things) the BIAB thread, some searches of the site will bring up some quite good info.
If I get time later on I might do a search and combine some into another post...
Mrs W,
It is not as complicated as it seems at first glance and it is very hard to go wrong. It is addictive though (apart from the alcohol). Get into it before the government bans it again
cheers

Here's a couple of books I find come in handy.Ok the point at which I'm getting confused right now.
I read through this, and it seemed to go into a lot of scientific detail about WHY the process occurs the way it does.
It didn't explain a damn thing about WHAT TO DO!
It's like having an instruction manual telling you the complex process of how your new motorbike works via combustion engine, but doesn't tell you how to start the bloody motor.

Thankyou gentlemen!
I also finally came up with the late blooming dull spark of an idea to check out youtube, where some canadian bloke is just telling me and showing me how to do it. Why did I not think of this earlier? Old age must be getting the better of me.
