[Garry]

@john, I can start earlier? 7am?

You can drop out your receptacle during the week if it suits you better?

Haven't been getting notifications on this thread for some reason, so didn't reply sooner. I can't make it this weekend, but can give a receptacle to Eoin.

[LordEoin]

no bother with me

[Dr Horrible]

I'll be over Saturday morning with my receptacle.  Ill bring something to carry the beer in as well.

[Garry]

Good man Doc. Do you still have that source for metabisulphite? I've got enough of citric acid.

[Dr Horrible]

Balls - I just changed jobs, can't rob metabisulphite any more and never  thought to bring any with me.

[Garry]

That's grand. I need to put in an order with hbc anyway.

[mr hoppy]

I've soime. Can check how much.

[mr hoppy]

Loads of campden tablets, 30+.

I've citric acid as well.

When do you need them - after emptying the barrel I'd be guessing?

[Garry]

Cheers Mr h, I think I'm covered. I ordered some this evening. I'll fill the barrel with water and citric acid/metabisuphite after we empty it to keep it wet.

[mr hoppy]

Hi Garry is it ok if I drop up early on Saturday afternoon?

[Garry]

That's grand. Eoin is coming at 11.00. I'll be setting up at about 9.00.

We emptied the barrel yesterday. Final gravity was 1004  It doesn't taste funky though.

We refilled the barrel with water, metabisulphate and citric acid. That shit smells toxic.

Dara, your keg is in my garage. I forgot to put it in Eoins car. I doubt it would fit anyway, Andrew was riding shotgun with a keg between his legs and a full fermenter on his lap 

Donnchadh, I have a fermenter with your beer in the garage. I purged it with CO2 so there's no panic.
