I’d love this, count me in!

Its finished and it is great. If you like them funky, 28C will get you there without any nasties... Hmmm - I wonder what 30C would do...

I've pushed mine to 28 - its going gangbusters... I'll report back re flavours once I've given it another try, but the smell in the fermenting fridge is awesome...

Any advances on this? Brewing tomorrow - thinking I'll ferment warm - 26C or so... Any other suggestions?

Joolbag, That would be me... I sent you a message on the 18th... If you can't see it, let me know

What model is that chest freezer? What's the internal dimensions?

Segrave - where are you located so I can finalise the post lists...

Yep. THey are even cheaper if we buy them in bulk...

OK...they've arrived and have been sorted into 500 cap bags. Each bag of 500 weighs just over 1kg... As previously noted, Officeworks can post them (https://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/c/office-supplies/mail-packaging/mailman-parcel-delivery) but not to "PO Boxes, Private & Locked...

They've arrived... I'll start counting them into bags...
