I've made the switch to BIAB, made 3 brews so far using this method, cost about $6 each and tastes much better

I've been priming with dextrose I bought from the stockfeed joint, but I've noticed it seems to give a low fizz, a bit like solo. Makes it easier to drink though, and more pleasant IMO.

Try this one. Very good. One Coopers Real Ale can and 2.0 kgs of rich brown sugar, two packets yeast, yeast nutrient, citric acid. Make up to 24 litres after initial strong fermentation has subsided. Gives 32 bottles @ 6.2% alcohol.

I don't brew any more. After my heart problems last year I am not allowed much alcohol.
