The water regulator is important, as someone running a tap or flushing the Looe will change the pressure and hence the flow. You can make one from bits off Amazon etc. Small pump, and a ball valve. There isn't much in it.

Make a gash brew, and run it, play with the settings, and remember it's ...

Thank you so much. I'm excited to get started. No doubt there will be loads of questions as I go...but thank you so much.

Have a great bank holiday <3 xxx

Hi guys, I hope you're all well.

I'm still around I promise, just not online as much as I'd like to be.

As some of you may recall, I've had the Airstill Pro for over a year now and I love it. It gives me everything I need and more.

However, I have just had the bargain of a lifetime and bought a ...

Thank you, I will give it a jolly good stirring and add more yeast I think. As the recipe uses dead yeast (and yeast is a cannable) I don't think it will hurt anything. The other bucket is still bubbling away very happily. It's weird lol xxx

Thank you for this thread Welshgin! I hope all is well inn your world.

Any help or advice offered on a stalled Cachaca wash? I set 2 buckets at the same time. One is still bubbling away nicely. The second was identical except pitched at a slightly higher temperature. This never took off. As the ...

Common sense, rarest commodity, if you can find it at all!

I don't find them selfish necessarily, they don't even have self preservation, their lack of 'preservation', care, concern and thought extends to everyone they come into contact with.

What beggars my belief is that if you 'turn it around ...

Oops. my bad PC there! No offence intended.

In the 90's I also knew what stuff was called. Now I am never really sure.


Haha I'm surprised I survived the 90s! But, yeah I think it's a whole new language. I'm constantly in a raised eyebrow stance. Don't even get me started with the music ...

I'm pretty certain common sense and self thought vanished somewhere in the late 90s! All the young people (mainly under 30) I come across appear to be self entitled, lack manners and respect and demand attention constantly! It's exhausting and frustrating in equal measure.

I'm blaming them for my ...

A little late, but Happy New Year folks, I hope 2024 brings you all good health and prosperity. Much love xxx

Thank you, another bloody distraction........

Yes you need to WG it is an easy brew and the results are fantastic.

Mine should hopefully be ready to rack around the 14th. I can't wait

Haha I aim to please

It is OK. Thank you. We must all move on.

I am distilling again. I hope you are too. It helps and the consumption. X

Great distraction :D
I am...I've had several successful neutrals. A couple stalled but I think it was rubbish yeast. I've tried a new turbo so will be racking that tomorrow ...
