7 days did seem optomistic to me and it took 14 days to ferment out now in bottles going to leave for couple weeks
Did try the little bit left over a very nice surprise tasted very nice. Will try the white wine next
Fantastic looking,quality pint glasses.
Lovely engraved design and great to drink a beer from.
Mega cheap price and fast delivery from Brew2Bottle
Good stuff!
This kit contains some thick, gloopy, dark brown stuff thats much like treacle but smells of malted milk biscuits. You do need to use some warm water to rinse out the packet otherwise you'll never get all you should have. I brewed this in a Pinter (actually split into 3 pinters) and did it until my ispindel said it was done (6 days!), cold crashed for 3 days, then conditioned for 6 more days. What I ended up with was a wonderful yorkshire bitter. I've got the ordinary bitter brewing at the moment, looking forwards to tasting that.
With free 1Kg of brewing sugar and free shipping if you spend over a certain amount, this is great value. I like the Ritchie's Simply kits, always work as it says it will and ferment no problem, with a great tasting result at the end of it all.
I'm not impressed. The overall feel and weight of the King Keg is better (more sturdy) than the ubiquitous 'own brand' ones out there, sadly that's all. The handles are held in place with plastic pins, the sealing neck rim isn't even and despite all the tips and tricks everywhere I have issues sealing the barrel.
I initially was going to purchase the G40 some months ago but opted for the much cheaper Brewzilla 35L Gen4. Silly me. I found the Brewzilla just not hitting the spot so opted to purchase the Grainfather G40. What a walk in the park. It is an outstanding piece of equipment and so well made. Expensive, but you get what you pay for. I love using it, so easy to clean. Nice one Grainfather👍 And thanks Brew2Bottle for an excellent service.
Took a punt on a pack of this and do not regret it. I banged in 2kg of white table sugar and it came out at 5.5%. I have it with a bit of coriander and a lime slice. Tastes like fizzy water with a hint of lime. My wife likes it with a dash of lime cordial. Still roughly £4 to make 20 litres is something else really. It came out pretty clear, I'd say 95% clear. As always, amazing service from brew2bottle. As per a previous review it did have a slight sulphur taste but doesn't bother me, I'll just add nutrients next time. I've ordered 3 more for summer BBQs for the people watching their weight ;)
