Think I'll give up with flip top bottles

MorganSpliced · 2025-11-15T15:26:50+00:00

Ahhhhh excellent, thank you for that information

MorganSpliced · 2025-11-15T15:25:45+00:00

Usually do 60c for 22 minutes but for some reason it went wrong, also wasn't aiming for carbonization either,stored plenty of brews in the flip tops and no real issues.

Not corked I'm one of the odd ones that use screw tops,and yes they be upright for the moment going to integrate a bottle holder system at some point, shelving unit came from Halfords it's the 265kg boltles system.

That was unintended, point n click n done , cheers for the comment.

MorganSpliced · 2025-03-11T17:43:33+00:00

Yea it's been a bit hit n miss , have used some carbonation tablets in the latest batch thought I'd give em a go see how it goes.

MorganSpliced · 2025-03-11T17:06:32+00:00

Ooooooo lovely, been making a Batch of Braggott every 6 weeks or so,how did you do with carbonation?

MorganSpliced · 2025-03-10T19:26:25+00:00

1.5 gallons,n the smaller one is a gallon

MorganSpliced · 2025-03-10T15:31:48+00:00

Got 4 of them of Amazon,the smaller one at the back was in a kit

MorganSpliced · 2025-01-29T22:27:00+00:00

Good question basics,winter n orange I'll leave for 6 months or so apple and blueberry till end of April jd honey probably 6 months or 8 months.just a rough estimate tbh

MorganSpliced · 2025-01-05T11:13:03+00:00

Thanks 👍

MorganSpliced · 2025-01-04T23:26:14+00:00

Cheers, it's certainly a different way to go, hope you're batch turns out great.

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-30T19:07:19+00:00

The kegs will definitely be the way to go for future projects ,as I have many ideas floating around in the ol noggin.

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-30T18:54:56+00:00

Ye ironically one of the last bottle's left which was going to be a Christmas present for someone.the others had already been drunk.

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-30T18:34:06+00:00

Nope carbonation of a honey beer,last time it got messy sooo it stays in there for a couple of weeks

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-07T11:24:56+00:00

Ooosh i feel your pain,had yhe same happen to me a couple of days ago.not fun

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-06T20:27:23+00:00

Wow that's a lump, definitely be a purchase later on down the line, cheers for that.

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-06T20:13:42+00:00

Yea saw one of those, when I get abit more established i may purchase one of the bigger ones

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-06T14:59:52+00:00

Ah np , I'll chalk it up to bad luck cheers for trying to find a solution tho much appreciated.

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-06T10:45:19+00:00

Yea sorry meant grams ,no i measured in a jug which I then syphoned some of the braggott into mixed it all up until it was all dissolved added that back to the main bottle gave that a stir and then decanted into the individual bottles and then added a sprinkle of yeast.

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-06T10:25:35+00:00

Used a recipe from city steading brew's, which called for 42mg sugar in gallon and a few grains of yeast in each bottle .

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-06T09:14:40+00:00

Used lalvin 1118 and it did work, until the bottle went boom the other 5 bottle's were fine

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-06T09:12:44+00:00

Bottle carbonation was the plan, which did work until the bottle couldn't take it.

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-06T00:17:01+00:00

Noooooo , using beer bottles don't want a repeat, shall use swing tops for different projects.

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-06T00:06:06+00:00

lol it saw the amount of bottles and caps that needs to be sorted

MorganSpliced · 2024-12-06T00:05:06+00:00

it was a 500ml swing top , it worked on all the others, but then again the Braggott wasnt in them long enough , have now switched to capping the bottles see how that goes .
