I recall the first time I had Fred was at Murray's brewery with a plate of spicy buffalo wings and blue cheese sauce. In that context it was brilliant. Cut through the grease and spiciness really nicely with a hoppy freshness. Have to stay, as a standalone beer, whilst it was still good, it...

The lineup from my service club's Beerfest last weekend (plus a Munich Dunkel of my own brewing not pictured). The deal is you have to drink all 10 beers before you're allowed to go back to any of them. Was a good night. Side note, the stein in the background has Miss Pinky in it, great...

Left to right, ESB, Pacific Ale, Northern England Brown Ale. Started pouring and realised a photo opportunity was presenting itself:overhead:

I run mine at 4.5 deg with a 1 deg lag. My probe is in a small plastic sealed test-tube filled with water and sitting in a small hollowed out piece of timber that is in turn magnetically attached to the keezer wall. It sits on the keezer wall about 3/4 of the way down. I was running a simple...

Thanks guys, I'll have a look.

So this thread answers half of my question, keg lid seal sorted. Does anyone have a link for where to get the 2 little nubs that go over the ends of the lid lever? See pic to compensate for my shitty description.

I'll give it a go.

I use one almost exactly the same, picked it up reconditioned off a fridgey mate for $200 (cost of parts), he'd gotten it for free not working. Upside, cheap, lots of space. But, I use it as a ferment fridge, not a kegerator. Downsides, must be outside because they're very noisy (not to...

Following with interest. My keezer build was a great time. I admire your ambition, I struggle to keep my 4 keg/3 tap keezer stocked with full kegs, let alone that many. There's never enough brew days...

You do like a good impulse buy...

Yes please!

Sorry, just saw this. I guess I got really busy and stopped the updates, seems so long ago now. The short version, picking up from where I left of, is Queenstown really turned on the weather for us being beautifully sunny and warm during the days (I thought so anyway, the wife was still rugged...

Thanks Gents, Kaiserben's options probably sounds closest to what I had in mind, I'll give it a go.

So ordinarily when I brew a lager, I will rack off primary into a keg, put a little CO2 on top, seal it and then store at 1-2 deg C for several months before force carbonating and serving, works a treat. My question is, if I wanted to bottle the same lager and bottle condition it, would you...

Interesting indeed. So but for the snazzy hat, I could be tried for witchcraft the next time the church whips up a good old fashioned Inquisition?

Huzzah! Shame I'm already booked that weekend, wanted to steward this year. Next year then.

APA three ways (I have three different recipes that I rotate to keep myself interested) Dr Smurto's Golden Ale, have brewed this more than any other single recipe ESB Milk Stout IPA Wheat

Whichever comes out of your fridge first when I place my next order. It will be a couple of weeks before I get in to the lagers, need to get my Belgian Golden Strong brewed first along with some other general consumption brews. Lager runs tend to test my ability to keep three taps running at...

Whilst I've been in one comp, points 2 and 4 ring true for me. Many comps have limited notice periods (at least to those not with their finger on the pulse) which makes brewing schedules difficult. Drop off points make life simpler and allow a little extra time that postage doesn't.

1 x 2206 please, it's German lager run time!
