    Made this last year, It was supposed to be ready for October but it was rank. Left if (forgot about it) and was taking out the Christmas decorations when I seen it at the back of the shed. Tried it and low and behold it was absolutely beautiful. I must have under carbonated it for the Pressure Barrel. Although it was perfect from the barrel I decided to keg it and used the Guinness /nitrogen gas on it. That just added the finishing touches to it. Just made up a new batch today 👍

    It's a great hobby. Like radio you can take it as far as you like. Replace the sugar with dried malt, add more hops etc. Quick tip, use brewing sugar not table sugar. There's a huge homebrewing YT community too and FB groups like Homebrewing with Kits UK

    Great to see you brewing your own beer, Fred. I've been doing it for 20+ years now and love it. I make extract kits and all-grain beers - I'm no snob though, I'll drink 'em all.
    Really good to see you had success on your first attempt. Beer kits are so much better these days and you can make almost any beer you fancy.
    Cheers!

    I’m so glad I came across your video. I’m half way through brewing this. I read the instructions wrong though, I assumed it was 10 days fermentation in total (7 days, add hops and then 3 further days) but I now see it’s 10 days after hops. So glad I am not about to ruin the whole thing by bottling a week early. Looks like a really nice end product, I’m looking forward to the first one.
