Started that second one yet?

[Greg2013]

No cider not yet : Chippie is here now doing the few jobs around the house and once he is gone i will tidy and make a start after tea this afternoon i reckon

[Greg2013]

Well no action yet from the coopers stout, however the temp has been around 12c all day in the room and i assume its going to get colder tonight. I wonder if this is stopping the yeast from working?

[LordEoin]

Move it to the front room or bedroom to get the temperature up a bit.
SWMBO will have a bit of a hissy fit, but at least justifying a brebelt purchase easier 
Just remember to pull the airlock out before moving it, or you'll suck all the liquid into the FV.

[Ciderhead]

In a nutshell yes. It needs to be 18-22 degrees ideally.

Consistently

[Hop Bomb]

Now look what happened!

While it's open, dry hop with 50g steak cut chips

HAHAHAHAHA Amazing! Great thread.

Just remember to pull the airlock out before moving it, or you'll suck all the liquid into the FV.

I forgot to take mine out when I was transferring my stout to secondary yesterday. I ended up sucking an airlock full of vodka into my brew.

[Ciderhead]

I posted that to you last night you must have been drinking

[Greg2013]

Well i have it setup like this with the last 2.5 hours and it has gotten slightly warmer but no noticeable blast of heat so to speak :-/

[Greg2013]

Hotpress is out, the shelves are way too close together to accept a 33lt FV,i doubt it would even accept a cornie and thats narrow.

There is only consistently colder here, no place in house is consistently warmer. 10-15c is pretty average for this house throughout
