    So once it has fermented fully i should then bottle it and add more sugar into each individual bottle?
    Exactly. What I do is batch prime -- siphon the fully fermented drink into another bucket, mix in a sugar solution, and bottle from there -- but priming each individual bottle is fine too.

    I've just been shocked :eek: to discover that home brew stuff can't be bought in Ireland anymore!! Lots of stuff on the web of course. But I'm sure a mate will pick up a few bits in the UK for me and post them over.
    Old news to most I'm sure.

    There's a bricks-and-mortar shop on the Dublin Road in Athlone called Best Brew. You can also arrange pick-up in person from the Home Brew Company in Mountmellick.

    Yes, you're not the first to make bottle bombs because Hugh said so. The man's a liability.

    With the pressure shattering your bottleneck, that's a bit of an understatement :D

    I have a few of the 1 liter Ikea bottles and wouldn't trust them to hold any pressure. In saying that I have my nettle juice stored in one for a few days before it starts it's brewing journey.

    Thanks BeerNut. I passed through Mountmellick and the nice people there sorted out all my needs. Now ready to start the bubbles rising from the nettle stock. I got a recommended kit as well for when the nettle proves to still have a sting.
