Guilty as charged.

Taf, what are the dimensions of the barrel?

Comes with a nice Stillage too.

It will take up about 4.5 ft square but you'll need it on blocks to siphon from it.

I'm clean out of stillage, just ate my last one, sorry!
As much as is required to make these is the diameter, raids or circumference of the point where they go on the barrel.
Do we need to prep the barrel?

:D

mr hoppy

Sorry johnrm, only slagging!

I'll be working next week.  >:(

I'd be interested in filling the barrel again alright if others were interested, but it's best not to delay too much in doing so so that mould doesn't get a chance to take hold.

Do you have a spare fermentor or bucket, that we could rack into, and you could bottle in your own time?

Count me in! Let me know which day. Can host her for the next brew if you like have plenty of room now! We can gather and knock out a quick batch to fill her again, should try a BIIPA this time I think!?

Anyone heading into the well on Sunday?

That sounds like a fantastic idea.

I've some bits and pieces to give back to you from the last meet up as well.

Hi lads,
Can only make Thursday evening next week. If you are doing it some other day I've a cornie that it can be racked into to bottle later.
