All gone, thanks for the interest. Thread closed!

For pickup in Melbourne. I have 10 boxes of empty, washed VB stubbies. They were purchased from an eBay vendor when we thought handing out samples to friends and family would be a good idea. Now the problem is stopping them from drinking all our beer, we don't need these stubbies! The boxes...

All the bottles are taken. Thanks to everyone for their interest! Happy brewing! BlueJ

Bottles are still available if anyone actually wants to come and pick them up from Bundoora (business hours Mon-Fri), Essendon North (evenings and weekends) or Spotswood (evenings and weekends). If not they'll go to mitsya...hopefully not the bin...the brother-in-law wants them out this week to...

Postage to Canberra about $13.65 for a box of 15 :angry: :lol: :lol: :lol: RESTECP

No-one? Did I mention that these Coopers PET bottles are BROWN? Most commercial beers are brown, so presenting your beer in these bottles is almost guaranteed to make your beer look more professional! :beer: In addition, these Coopers PET bottles are made of plastic - durable and yet light...

I have PMs already about the cubes. I expect they will be picked up during the week. If not I'll keep the thread open. BlueJ

We have 8 wort cubes that we accumulated during our fresh wort phase. We need to get them out of the brewery to make some room for more AG gear! These are available for pickup for anyone who is interested. Take them all or take a few, as you like. We are located in Melbourne. Pickup can be...

Now that we are using glass longnecks, we have 100+ Coopers PET bottles that we are no longer using. Perfect for those starting out with K&K. These are available for pickup for anyone who is interested. Take them all or take a few dozen, as you like. We are located in Melbourne. Pickup can be...

LOL the silver paint on our NASA burner lasted all of 10 minutes before it burnt and blocked the holes. The paint started bubbling after about 30 seconds! Sounds like the ring burners have real high temperature paint if it can get through one brew day.

Hi Wraith Good stuff. We have an identical KeepCold which also leaks a little. We are using the original soft rubber washers which distort under the clamping pressure and allow some water to get underneath. It is not enough to worry us but we will do as warrenlw63 suggests and get some stiffer...

Cool, Gwyno has lost his AHB forums cherry! Here's hoping for many a quality post to come. And Gwyno don't forget to post in the introduce yourself section. Does anyone know if this pacman yeast will be regularly available here? Gwyno told me it was a trial batch (or something). BlueJ

G&G have a new fresh wort kit called...Grain and Grape Fresh Wort Kit #2. That's a nice name. Our first brew from the G&G FWK (Fresh Wort Kit) was sucked down in no time. :chug: Our second brew is still in CC and I foresee it suffering the same fate. We used Hallertau 30/30 IIRC and the IBUs...

BB we bottled ours the other day. We used about 300g of honey for about 20l of beer. We chose to blend two light coloured, aromatic honeys. It is too early to say how they will end up, but going into the bottle the honey flavour was...light and aromatic. :lol: And pretty well masked by the...

It's hard to say what could be causing the problem. In your friend's case the best course of action may be to drink something else... I have a severe reaction to a particular brand of wine - half a glass is enough to make me sick (full on hangover symptoms) for a day. This is premium wine too...
