Reaper,

Sorry i forgot to ask, do you have any tried and tested recipes?

[Reaper]

Hi Axl

Get one that im trying at the mo, a brown ale from extract, hops and barley but its not tested its bottled, just waiting for it to carbonate. ive got 4 kits that im drinking now but nothing special just a mild, a stout an IPA and a cider. my last venture was treacle ale but ended in disaster it want sour and went down the drain ( 5 gallons) got a gallon of honey beer/mead/ale that fermenting away.

Hey Reaper,

Sounds like you been busy, i like the sound of the brown ale from extract whats the name of the kit i'll give it a go.

I see you like to make cider, have you tried the revolutionary Turbo Cider thats taken most people by storm yet.

Treacle ale, dare i ask if you'll try it again?

[Reaper]

Hi Axl

Yep i have a gallon of the Turbo cider, ive lost the recipe for the brown ale, ill find it and post it on the forum for you, think ill try the treacle again but just a gallon this time,its heart breaking pouring away 5 gallon.

Hi Reaper,

Thanking my lucky stars i aint had to do that with beer making yet, but with the wine i'm keeping stum. Just started 5 gallons of bitter last night, hoping to do some ales and stouts ready for christmas if i get the time.
This could be the first christmas i don't have to buy any alcohol.

Hello Stevec

I refuse to try the grain until i get a little more confident, but keep them recipes safe for me.

We brew, all grain. Steve we brewed a Salvation the other day, it's going to be good.

Hay Paul,

The brewing process is mostly the same. We brewed a lot of extract, but switched over about a year ago. We did an extract, called double your pleasure, Dark and malty not overly hoped. I will find the recipe and post it for you.
