TASTE.....fizzy air...,sorry

twist top bottles are fine for bottling,although it helps a great deal if you have a decent bench capper. There's heaps of info about that on this forum..

Sound point TL.Thanks for looking out for the little guy.

Good point Dr.............

Ha ha...reminds me of when I use to syphon petrol from my old mans car into my Fj ....

If it turns out to be a nice beer add it it to your recipe... Im sure thats never been posted in the "recipe" forum..

Ive just tried a few bottles of the CRA that I bottled only 3 weeks ago.....Im stoked with it! and I can see how this kit is a great base to work with.
THE BEST BEER IVE HAD THIS MORNING!!!

TL.........dont stand by the phone.....

I used a hand capper for my first ever brew........and it was the last time I used it,them things are lethal. I've used a superautomatica since and no dramas,I also clean my new caps.

Drsmurto....how did u go with the temprite? did u get it up and running? does it use much power? I have just been given a two tap temprite from my local,although I do need to get a keg or 2 and gas bottle. If u have any adice on this it would be great..

cheers
Nath

No...I dont think so...Ill have to put up some pics 2morrow. A normal keg is attached and the hoses go into the temprite where it chills the beer going through the lines..

went down to the local 2night for a few coldies and came home with an electric temprite inline chiller thingmejig. It looks impressive but I have little idea on how it works. Is it as simple as hooking it up to a keg and plugging it in? It was for free so I had to take it,although Im a novice HBer ...

why not just ask ur local pub,im sure they would give them to you. Although u might have to sort through there bins,but that's no drama.

From my limited experience I beleive that supa alpha is a hop that is put with a mex cerverva. Also Canadian light kit with supa alpha to mimik corona....but I could be wrong

when neil was gunna grow veggies in the back yard and plants cans of vegies..classic..oh and $25 for a bottle...i dunno maybe for my old man @ xmas/birthday.

yeah... what are they worth. my misses is sitting next to me and even she says it looks impressive....

earl....the misses travels to Mackay alot for work so she picks up what I need from the hbs there ("THE KEG")

Thanks rwh...point taken,making a cuppa now :)
So I'll ditch the brewing sugar and use 1kg of ldm instead..
and Lachy..yeah I was think of adding cascades finishing hops.
I live on an island so its not always possible to get to hbs,which makes it hard when I am after some quick advice..
So thanks ...

I was given a can of Coopers Real Ale the other day and already have 1kg of LDM and 1kg of Coopers brewing sugar lying around.....should I just go for it?
Ikg of LDM seems alot,maybe half that is better?...

any advice would be helpful,thanks
