The Pinter - Homebrew

[Vitola]

If like me you occasionally enjoy a good beer with your favourite cigar, or you just like beer...... Has anyone tried one of these? makes 10 pints in one go; a really simple but clever process. Upfront cost is reasonable, instructions on your phone, eco packaging (beers sent through post) and no duty..... I reckon it pays for itself in two brewings if you buy speciality beers..

The current range of brews they have available is quite limited at present, but the taste of these are damn excellent! I made the Waltham Forest Cider over Xmas and have just finished brewing and now drinking the Dark Matter Stout - its a stunner!

That Pilsner they offer looks really interesting and its 5% ABV. Happy days.

Looks really good, I might take a punt.

Alex I think you will be suitably impressed - poured myself another one tonight - I should have taken the photo before I took a sip though

how does this work? Is it actually brewing? You buy the pre-prepared brewing ingredients from them, add water and then leave it until there's enough alcohol? Or is it more a concentrate that's diluted and the 'barrel' adds a bit of gas to it?

Niels a short video on how it works

and on a Mashable review it’s described as

“It's one of the real innovations of the Pinter, the Fresh Press: a bottle of molasses-looking liquid that is the result of skipping the malting, kilning, milling, and mashing bit of beer production. According to the website, the team “intensify the Presses by taking water out at no more than 65°C in a vacuum chamber” to lock in the flavour while it sits in the bottle waiting to be moved along in the brewing process by you. You just pour it into the Pinter at one stage, add yeast, and fill it up with water. That’s it. It’s this that might put off hardcore home brewers who respect the grinding labor of the craft and want total control over the process. But it’s also this that might attract newcomers to brewing, or those who don’t have the time or inclination to complete all the home brewing stages, but still want fresh beer on tap at home. It’s the same appeal and blight of coffee pod machines: baristas hate ‘em, busy people love ‘em.”

I looked into this but my concern is the storage, it’s quiet a big unit to take up fridge space, the design of my kitchen my fridge is a under counter fridge, but what I watched on you tube it looks a good gadget,

I currently have the SUB which I love only let down is the torps (kegs) are only 2l so by the time you get rid of the first bit there’s only roughly 3 and a bit pints left

My son has one and I tried the pilsner but couldn't drink it because it was so bad. It was flatter than a witches tit

Saw this advertised last night. I have a big enough spare fridge which I mainly use for beer anyway. Just not sure it’ll produce decent beer compared to buying small kegs from local breweries.
