Off on a tangent here not Philippines brewing.Originally Posted by Terpe
Nice thread
This is something I've promised myself to take up when I eventually get there.
Do you remember those days when Boots had a whole section on home brewing?
Spoilt for choice then.....mind you their pre-packed beer packs never really tasted that good, but some of their wine packs were OK
Don't know why but I always had better results from basics.
This thread reminds to search for all my old recipes and get them onto storage disk.
I remember my Dad making a lot of wine (orange & raisin was one of his faves) and going with him to 3 independent home brew shops in the local area and buying him bits from Boots for Christmas. The independents have long gone and I don't think Boots stock the products any longer - Wilko do

I was reasonably successful doing beer and lager from a basic tin of concentrate but doing some sort of starter solution from liquid yeast in a poly bag in the airing cupboard. Happy days
