thanks warra, we thought we would have to tip it out, will try your advice.

we put down a basic coopers brew the other day, it didnt bubble at all for about 2/3 days, and now is literally foaming all over the place, any ideas please??

The advice you have about leaving it for at least 2 weeks in the fermenter before bottling is good advice.

My beers are in the fermenter for 3 weeks, sometimes up to 4, with no ill effects at all.

You don't need to keep taking samples, If your brew has gone from 1.050 OG to 1.010 FG, you have ...

thanks for for all your advice guys sanitation wise I was completely anal about so I dont think that should be an issue I'll just keep doing the hydrometer readings and see how steady they are over the next couple of days .fingers crossed all turns out well , lucky I did'nt take any notice of the ...

thanks to all for your answers, appreciate every piece of advice

I think most of the longlife apple juices these days are suitable for brewing. Just have a look at the ingredients and don't buy it if it says "preservative" in the ingredients.

I do know that Aldi juice is considered to be as good as Berri and the normal price would be much cheaper.
Hi, hope you ...

Hello all, I wish I had found this site before I started, now I know my first cider is going to be junk and my 2nd not much better, I have read lots of the posts on here and realise a cider kit is basically useless, I did look for juice to put in it and couldnt find anything with no additives, I ...

Hello everyone, this is my first post and not sure if its even in the right place, but here goes... we have just joined the happy home brewers family, got a few brews down now and 4 fermenters on my kitchen table, lucky its strong :?
