Hey all, long time no speak. Have been out of brewing for ages now and am keen to get started again. In the meantime- to wet the lips, just bought one of these fresh wort kits from All In Brewing. My problem is I've stuffed up as I wanted about a 4.8% ABV Beer upon completion. Has anybody...

G'day All. It's been ages since I've been on here. Hope you're all well. Just curious if anyone has used the Ikea jars as bottles, and whether they're any good for the job? Many thanks in advance. Hound

Hey all... Can't find what I'm looking for so thought I'd hit up the beer brewing supercomputer... Turn off the grill, I know what no chilling is... Take for example my situation, that is, one without a wort cooler... Usually after the boil I do a flame out addition and let the wort sit...

Armed with flamesuit, I dare to say... I've truly been trying over the years to justify why CG is any good?! Yes, yes, it's a matter of taste, blah, blah, blah. I myself am a megaswill born, megaswill raised bloke.. Who through the enlightenment of sites such as this one have learned it's ALL...

Hey all.. Anyone tried this? More importantly, anyone brewed this? This beer is farking sensational... I'd recommend tasting to all.. Just after a clone brew if anyone has tried! Cheers in advance.. Hound

G'day all. Have just put down a brew with US-05.. Has been fermenting @ 16.5 degrees for 9 days now.. Still a fair amount of airlock activity so i haven't bothere taking a gravity reading yet. Said brew has been at high Krausen for over a week now.. This is the first brew I've done with the...

G'day all.. My stovetop struggles getting 30lt to a solid boil... Definitely time to move to a burner as I'm wanting to do larger boils... Around 40lt. Most burners I've seen available are for LPG... As I have an external gas outlet in my unit, it will be more economical for me to use...

G'day all... Have searched fairly high and low pre-asking the forums... Plan on growing my own hops come the right time for it... Was just wondering if anyone could get their greasy little mits on some motueka rhizomes... Any help is greatly appreciated. Hound.

G'day fellas. Was just wanting a little info on the above... Doing my first temp controlled lager, Motueka/Amarillo low long and lazy @ 11 degrees.. Have just ramped up the temp to 18 degrees to hold for a couple of days for a D-rest. After this it's one degree, Gelatine for 2 days, Polyclar...

Hey Fellas/ladies. Just scrounging together some ingredients to put down a brew tomorrow... Wanted to run this by you all... What do you all think of the above combo? Have just put down big Tony's LCBA clone... Love Motueka in terms of flavour and aroma.... As a result, I want to incorporate...

G'day guys.. Please forgive my ignorance/lack of education... I've just been trolling for the above info, and can't seem to find any.. Last BIAB, my %eff was dead set shocking.. I sparged and mashed out etc. Was just wondering if it has anything to do with my doing a 60min mash? I did a...

G'day guys, Chill haze has been a bit of an issue for me, so I've purchased some Polyclar.. Only problem is, the cash chief/thief won't let me get a brewfridge just yet.. Can I use Polyclar in a room temperature fermentor? The obvious answer is it won't work as efficiently, but will it be a...

Guys, the cold break post boil... Do we really need to feed it to the plants? How is it detrimental to the brew? Thanks in advance..

G'day brains... Have just prepped the grain for my first double batch tomorrow, Tony's LCBA.. Still in two minds as to whether to do the mash in two separate pots, or to do it all in the 40lt pot.. After filling said pot to about the 29lt mark the other day, I'm fairly certain the 9.9kg...

G'day all! Just wanted to know what you all felt about something I've been racking my brain about for awhile... I've just started dabbling in the wonderful world of AG brewing... Thank you BIAB/god... I won't jump on the microphone and say something crazy, like "I'm a great homebrewer". (for...

Awesome! My new 40lt stockpot arrived this morning... Just did a dry run in it to see if I could get 29lt of water to a rolling boil. Lid on- Joy Lid off- No joy. Probably a stupid question, but I'll ask it anyway... If I leave the lid on during the boil will it be detrimental in any way...

Hey all.. Stumbled upon this show on Youtube thanks to a link posted by a fellow brewer... Might I say bloody informative for a person (such as myself) delving into not only the world of AG homebrewing, but beers outside of the megaswill genre... Up until episode 8ish they've covered, and...
