Cheers guys. That has certainly cleared things up! I will be an expert by the time I start my first brew!..... haha.

Thanks a lot for the time and effort you put into the reply PP I really appreciate it. I have read though all the posts and now I think I have taken it all in! I'm glad that I took the time to ask on here instead of rush into it like a bull in a china shop! My last question! (a BIABacus related one)...

Do you think you could look at my BIABacus sheet to make sure my figures are OK for sparge etc.? Cheers, Pinchy BIABacus PR1.3 - Old Gold...

I would have gone bigger but my kitchen and hob wouldnt be able to take any more so i will have to make due. Basically i would like to know how i s...
Hello everyone. I've brewed two beer kits (Wherry & Wilko Golden Ale) and already planning moving on to greater things :).
