It’s on the list, but not something I’ve researched much yet. Do you recommend?

Did you add them raw or boiled them down or something? And what was your best flavour?

What exactly are Americans getting for the tax they pay in now?

Surely chocolate teapot is th classic. Although that tastes good - I’d wager Trump does not.

Even some small word saying something better than ‘it could have been worse’. It really cements how pathetic our country has become.

This is all my knee jerk reaction however. I’ll l probably say something more sensible tomorrow.

I also concede that we have no other choice. We shot ourselves in the foot with Brexit thinking the US might be reliable and now look where we are.

I’m just annoyed at our whole ridiculous situation right now.

Personally I’d like it if ministers showed some backbone.

Great tips thank you!

Thanks for the tip. Our ideas of cheap are different though haha

P.s. just attached the sediment pic in a comment. Image upload is acting flakey today.

Sediment pic (the bottle had been on its side):

Thanks.

I have glass bottles but was sick when it was bottling time and it was just easier to use the plastic ones. They’re basically my emergency bottles.

As for the temp, it seems that with this kit it needs to be on the cooler side (18-21c). The room I was doing it in is fairly cool but not that cool and it creeped up to 23c for probably about 10 of the initial 24 hours unfortunately. When I noticed I got the wet towels out which helped a lot.

After that it says to keep is between 15-21 on the online instructions, and 14-18 on the physical ones. I avged about 16c throughout the brew phase so got that okay.

With the warmer weather coming, I’m concerned I won’t be able to keep this cool enough without some extra stuff (was thinking an old freezer unit for insulation, and some kind of wet blanket or ice pack rotation).

It’s almost as if neither of the parties that will win through FPTP (first past the post) care about the people, and care more for satisfying the rich.

Due to FPTP, I can only vote labour as for my views they’re the slightly lesser of two terrible parties.

At the same time, neither of the parties that benefit from FPTP will think about changing it and even if they did most of the population would fall for the propaganda machine anyway (see Brexit and decades of awful Tory government / the nonsense that the right are spewing out but gaining popularity)

Yes: “Start now, getting everything that you can reasonably afford, as quickly as you can”

If you think the answer to that question is yes then I think you’ve misunderstood their point.

I fear the day density arrives

No off brand heads you can use?

Thanks!

As I’m new to this I wanted to confirm something. When you say grain do you mean making your own wort?

Funny, the guy who invited him is a lowlife who is among the worst to represent the American people.

Only thing I can think of with faggot is that on the UK at least that’s a organ based dish

The laaaannddd of the freeeee.

Tempted to just make a bot to start posting this on all the American politics posts right now. 9/10 times it’s going to be relevant.

Please write a post about the comparison! As well as any differences apart from taste you had in using baker’s yeast.

I’m new to this and one of the things I’ve been wondering about is if I can just use baker’s yeast.
