Pinter home brew system 13:20 - Sep 16 with 967 views | Zx1988 | Just took delivery of one of these today, and have got it all set up and brewing the Stars and Stripes American IPA that they do. Has anyone else got one of these, and had any experience they'd be happy to share? | |

They are good, and well worth it - but a bit of a pain in having to plan ahead for when you want a drink as not a massive home drinker so have ended up wasting a fair bit! | |

"They are good, and well worth it" Are they though? I looked at one the last time they came up on here, and the costs involved long term seemed a little steep. I'd be very very happy to be corrected though, as I am interested. | |

They seem to be trying to shift stock in advance of launching a new model, so it's a bit cheaper at the moment. I got the system, and enough to brew 30 pints, for £65 delivered. Alternatively at the moment you can get the system, brewing kits, and a second brewing vessel for £85. | |

You can bottle it if you are not going to drink the full Pinter. Carb drop in a bottle and condition for a week before chilling and guzzling! | | | |

They look very good actually. I'd not heard of them before. | |

So if you do that, is it a case of decanting into bottles once the brewing stage has completed, and then let it condition in-bottle with a carb drop? If you go down that route, what sort of time can the bottles be left for once the initial one week has gone by? | |

I think you can either do that, or just bottle what's left after you have drunk your fill...the carb drop re carbonates in secondary fermentation and you can keep it for months just like any other home brew. | | | |

Can I use an old lemonade bottle, so I can drink it in a bush at the local park and scare the kids? Asking for a friend. | |

Some people do! Make sure you use a bottle previously used for carbonated drinks though otherwise you will end up with a bomb in your hands! Your friend can join the others old soaks! | | | |
