I found some time last night to bottle the Dead Pony Club clone and was hoping for some capping success using my new bench bottle capper – as recommended (or similar) by John (Thanks John!) in a previous post – http://twotailsbrewery.co.uk/my-dislike-of-capping-bottles. Unfortunately I seem to...

Thanks for the advice, I'll have to work out how much liquid I can cram in the pot I'll be boiling in. It does look like too much bitterness on paper, but I brewed this as an AG and it tasted great....

Forgot to say, I'm intending on trying to get 20 litres out of this.

Hi everyone, I've had a play around in Beersmith (I'm not entirely sure I know what I'm doing!) and have come up with the below. I was intending on still doing a full mash, and then adding the liquid extract at the end. At the moment the recipe calls for building the LME, is this a necessary...

I've just added a new post on my blog, all about my new found dislike of capping bottles! http://twotailsbrewery.co.uk/my-dislike-of-capping-bottles Please let me know if anyone has any tips, or can recommend a good bottle capper, the cheap plastic ones seem rather rubbish, its surprising I've...

Thanks all, I guess I'm never going to get the same exact beer, but not sure that matters, I'll have a play around with the recipe soon so I can get something ready for over Christmas!

Thanks everyone! That's pretty much was I was thinking yes. I'm just brewing a fairly standard English Ale so no crazy high alcohol or bitterness. I have How to Brew, not sure which edition but I'll have another look :) Thanks, still getting my head around the terminology. Doing a true...

Hi everyone! I started off by brewing beer kits, these were always no boil versions complete with all hops etc, you just dissolved the can of LME in hot water and then topped up to 5 gallons with additional water. I moved straight from here to AG brewing and generally brew small 5 or 8 litre...

Great idea, I'll do just that! Love the brewery your homebrew club have setup, that's amazing! I know there is a club local to me, I need to make an effort to join up some time.

Hi all, I update a little blog with what I'm up to with my brewing and I've got at least one reader (my wife...)! Check it out if you have a few minutes spare :) www.twotailsbrewery.co.uk I'm also on Instagram if anyone likes looking at photos of crushed malt and fermenting vessels (erm, and...

Thanks! I'm from Stevenage, Hertfordshire.

Hi everyone, I'm Matt and I'm new to posting to the forum, I registered a while ago and have been lurking! I'm not totally new to homebrewing, but have lots to learn. I've been making beer from kits for about 15 year, and started all grain brewing a year or so ago - mostly with success! I've...
