i was storing the fermenter at 22 to 18 d celcius
I'd like to know if Alf has been licking his Bufo a bit too often? Would explain things.LAGERFRENZY said:like a worm virus dressed in the disguise of Bufo marinus this thing just self replicates until the interweb once known to brewers is completely dispersed.
I'm also having a crack at my first brew, I bought 2 of these pots from BigW and did 2 separate boils. I was hoping to make close to 30L but you lose a lot of steam with these pots. I'd suggest weighing the lid down with something to reduce this? Nice and cheap though for people low on funds such as myself. I think I'll be boiling a fair bit of wort in these for a while yet.bevan said:Big W have 19L for $20.00. That could help you get started on a small batch.

I also bought a 30L water container for about $25 (I think) at bunnings to use as my fermenter
My first brew has been fermenting for 12 days now
No lids on the boil mate. That steam is carrying off stuff you don't want to remain in your beer.Stiftung said:I'm also having a crack at my first brew, I bought 2 of these pots from BigW and did 2 separate boils.
