Hi are you filtering into the keg after brewing , or are you standing to settle then filtering oh nice brew set up and magic bar because that's where the beer disappears .

Has fermentation stopped yet Chris ?

I`m waiting for a pressure barrel to be delivered, hopefully this weekend. i`ll check the sg, sterilize the barrel and because it`s got a tap ,start bottling .I`ve got so many who want to sample ,i`ve bought another kit ready Geordie Scottish export it had good reviews. Couldn`t resist sampling it myself . Think next time i`ll cut down on the water to make it stronger, just as an experiment.

What yeast did they supply?

I was working at a brewery where they had me sample two beers, both came from the same batch but tasted totally different. They split the batch and fermented with different yeasts.

Hi Horace, I thought you were asking Chris the question. I leave the bèer for a week after fermentation on crash cool, drawing off yeast every other day. I can only get down to 3 deg during the summer then filter through a 100 micron then 30 and eventually 5 . After that I pass it through a membrane introducing a low level of co2 which helps keep the beer a little bit longer and gives a clear beer. The only clearing agent i use is 3 gram of copper fining to 100 ltr at the last 10 minutes of boil. I dont use isinglass!

That`s a good point ,i might filter it before bottling it.

Well the the pressure barrel was delivered, i syphoned the stout into the barrel and found it was weeping at the bottom. I`ll give the supplier his due , i sent him a message at 6.45pm he got back to me straight away ,with a new ones in the post. In the meantime the leaking barrel is in a binbag. I`ve just done another kit it`s 40pints of scottish export.

Anyone make their own beer ,i thought i`d have a go. I need some advice ,where to buy the kits and equipment from etc.

Hi. Don’t brew beer, but make loads of wine (my go to method of preserving our fruit gluts each year) I buy from The Home Brew, great service and they do do beer stuff including kits

 

[chrishunter]

Just sampled a small amount of the scottish export, very nice can`t wait. Think i`ll keep that on the go all the time ,because it`ll be gone for christmas. Had a pint of the stout last night and slept like a log ,full 8 hours.

Hi I've been trying the simply range of beers comes in a packet re no dented tins and the stout and bitter has been great.
