Top DropBrewed up in early october, nice and straighforward, racked onto the nibs in a secondary after 5 days (didn't sterilise them in alcohol or anything)
managed 8 500mL bottles out of it thanks to no dry hop and heavy floccing yeast.
Tasted great after 3 weeks, managed to leave the rest until now.
Really great brew, nice roasted malt flavours with just a hint of chocolate on the back end, good mouthfeel from the lactose but by no means too sweet (don't panic if your FG seems high, lactose doesn't ferment, mine finished at 1018)
Would be nice to have some expected pre/post boil and FG but not an issue
Will definitely buy the full size kit in the new year once I've sorted out the brewery! Have been doing 5-10L BIAB for over a year but I think it's time now.
5L Stove top is a fun introduction and great to learn about the processes but it works out you spend like an hour making each bottle!
One note I have is I recommend you get some protafloc/irish moss etc. Not a necessity by any means but if you're doing BIAB you're getting a lot of trub into the boil, satisfying to see the wort drop clear when chilling!
Cheers
