I agree that it was more resembling of a pale ale than a larger. Or maybe even a blonde beer. It might be worth buying an extra bag of hops as that is what helps it with the colour. 👍👍

Don't use granulated sugar use brewing brewing sugar or unrefined cane sugar. Granulated sugar has fruit sugar in it which will affect the taste of the beer.

I don't know if you noticed this already, but it's says top up to 23 litres, not add 23 litres to the original hot water. Might find your losing flavour, body and abv by using the extra water

If you want to improve your results.Use dextrose instead of ordinary sugar, get yourself a bottling wand to avoid oxidising when filling, get yourself some decent brown PET bottles. 🍻

I love Hop Gobbler, It's a canned kit type with extra malt and hops. If you are patient and wait as long as you can to drink your ale you get a much better flavour. It's so hard to wait. I had to make 120 pints before I was able to make enough to leave some 6 months but the improvement was remarkable. Winter is the best time for a brew as you can control the temp better and get a cleaner taste. Brewing is great as you can start simple but there are easy steps to do more without it being too much of a jump. You need a break from that sdr findfudge. Do you garden? Do any veggies?

I was way into this, at one time. Nothing beats liquor store buy a case or less than, or A six pack (if you have a job).. Even my 4.5 % beer. Moonshiners on Discovery. But anyway, cheers Fred (drink responsibly) . yeah, crazy, I have hops plants (in 1/2 whiskey barrels if they lived over MN winter) and grape plants (joke really). I did one thing with meat grinder and neighbors cranberries, (wasps surrounding(. It smelled like boo berry crunch kiddy cereal. I spring watered it down, Lavalin 118. Hey, it was FUN! I enjoyed myself. i'm no moonshiner! I think the flocculation gave me a headace.

You would try making mead 3-4 jars of honey per gallon demijohn, as if you go up to 6 jars it's mega sweet for most people if in doubt use 3 jars cheapest honey might be Aldi squeezy honey and champagne yeast might a good one to start with, mine goes cloudy, but maybe you could do better, but be mega careful when using hot water in demijohns, I've cracked a few that way, maybe best to use plastic bucket to melt the honey first, hope you find this useful.

I used to make wine from some grapes in the garden, I used a packet of sugar as well and I thought I was cheating. But it tasted lovely. I used a liquidiser to mash the grapes down and yeast from the chemist. I'd get about 10 gallons and maybe bottle it or not depending on how I felt about all the sterilising and corking of wine bottles. It was great at a BBQ though to put a demijon on the table and say 'there you go - enjoy!' :-) I did try Beer but I drank it too quick :-)

Hi Axel. Yes your going to need the USB program lead. You can then download the program software which should allow you to activate the scan mode. Also once you have the lead you might be able to switch on 2w high power mode via CHIRP software. Enjoy.

Good result Fred! Watching that brought back some good memories of when we were skint before my daughter was born many years ago. We’d sit drinking homebrew listening to music at weekends. Simpler times. I used to use finings from a sachet to clear the beer more, not sure if they actually did much but those were the pre internet days when you got information from books 😂 73’s Franco

Hi Fred good channel and well explained video on how to make homemade beer.i used to make homemade beer myself for about 10 years I'm 70 now but enjoyed the hobby and the many different types beer I made,bitter,stoutes,ales,lagers,I always used glass bottles never plastic,also later on bought a beer sphere barrel with a tap to store the finished fermented and fined beer with a metal pressure valve on top to introduce co2 gas using a cylinder to keep beer under pressure when it dwindles...you can also use brown demerera sugar in the wort gives a nutty caramel flavour to beer, and to bottles ect for priming secondary fermentation,a beer hydrometer is a must to check the specific gravity of the start and finish of fermentation,you can the know the the near end fermentation say 1005/1010 and the SG drop to calculate your ABV% .I used to buy many many years ago fresh crystal malted barley from local brewery and buy fresh hops and their fresh yeast and cook it all up in a baby burco boiler!!..Later on I made beer from the large tins malt/hops you could buy shops...best wishes❤
