All grain brewing is on the horizon for me... I ordered a nice setup earlier this year, once it arrives (eventually) and I get settled with it all I'll report back, it would be good to get some discussion going here about the process, experiences, etc.

Ooooh fighting talk 😂 I come from the original England hehe, just a bit further north than Burton... you know, the part of the world that gave us IPA and 'Burtonisation' of water! Well arguably London, but it was the Burton water that made it what it is :) I don't know the breweries you...

I have absolutely no idea what that even means!

I am constantly reminding myself to be thankful for what I already have... :love:

Just cracked open an home brew bottle of an American Goose Pale Ale, dry hopped with Simcoe hops, left to mature for about 15 weeks it's like drinking alcoholic passion fruit juice ... I really need to get some more bottles and leave my home brew for a lot longer!

Hehe this suggestion keeps presenting itself to me via various channels - thank you 😃 I am all paid up on bills and doing okay, but waiting for work and can't spend any money right now! like seriously, no matter how much I want to! As soon as I am back on top of finances I think I am going...

Premise: I am missing being able to upload pictures. Speculation: The down time and image upload restrictions are due to limits of hosting services for FC. Suggestion: Voluntary donations towards the cost, a few $$ a month or whatever... I would! Alternatively, embedding of files from...

The differences between the various tips astounds me and makes me want to try them all! Am I wrong?

I've been contemplating how the UK is evolving given recent events; the exposure of just how broken and corrupt politics and society have become because of our ******* %%%%% $$$$ %%%%%%% leadership, and I think this article sums it up perfectly. Humanoid entities with money, aggressively buying...

I spent over a decade, actually 12+ years actively minimising my carbon footprint to microscopic levels because I fell for the lie that it was 'our problem' and not the responsibility of the large corporates who are actually doing the bulk of the damage. What difference did it make? Precisely...

There are so many ways to approach the Dynavap. I tend to vape with the port completely open, loosely filled full chamber, heat until the click, take several (3 or 4) light draws, allow to cool past the click 10 seconds or more, then repeat. Depending on the herb I can get anything up to 7 or 8...

Completely different day today, beautiful sunshine 15°C warm feeling, ground still wet but most of the little streams gone again! I am running but got a nagging discomfort in my right hip, all part of the ass problems noted earlier. It's meant to be 20°C here tomorrow so thinking of having a...

Hopefully they don't do a PhotoBucket! https://www.theverge.com/2019/6/24/18701132/photobucket-photo-storage-pricing-flickr

Dibs!! Did I actually get lucky for once? 😂 If it's an epic pain in the ass to ship to the UK I will pass up on my claim here, be honest!!

No... 100% absolutely not! Please re-read, perhaps in context of my other posts, there's a whole discussion in this thread before this post. edit: hope this doesn't sound harsh, just want to be clear and for everyone to be safe. 🕊️ I am saying it is better to get to know each other and build...

Hehe, I wear a merino hoody too! Seriously it is incredible stuff, I sometimes go out in the rain in just that (and shorts and shoes too silly!), even if it is stormy, even when it is sopping wet, no chaffing! and I still feel warm and comfortable. The one downside to it is that it is...

I feel a little silly replying to my own post, but... "The PM also said on BBC Breakfast that only 127 HGV drivers had applied for temporary visas offered by the government to help tackle the shortage. The department for business said 27 drivers had been identified, but have not confirmed...

Interesting, I am not sure I need neoprene, although I do have some neoprene socks I find when they become really wet they become a bit of a problem in terms of stability. My feet seem to start sliding about in them, it's not pleasant or safe. Otherwise the merino and a windproof layer are more...

Okay then... Remind me never to sell you anything - thanks for the heads up :tup: I... as they say in those quirky courtroom dramas... rest my case!

Anyone want to sell me something G&S?? I promise to show you how brutally I can rip you off for your gear AND your money! Not really... of course!!! ...but G&S is far worse for sellers, many of whom are selling because they are struggling! I think it's a bad idea unless you are an actual...
