    More "Apply" Apple Cider

    Hello Fellow Brewers and Happy Bloody Easter. For the first time I brewed an apple cider using Aldi apple juice as many before me have done. After brewing, I added 500g of lactose to sweeten it up a bit and today is "Test Day" It has only been sitting in fridge gassing up for 2 weeks but this...

    Hot break

    I have it from good authority (not me) that if the smell is clear...you can smell it without having to try) it is working. Same logic to see if previously mixed solutions are still useful. I tend to over do it just a bit cos it is so cheap when I buy it in 20kg bag

    Co2 Leaking - Had Enough

    Well thanks so much for the replies. I had young Zak from the Geelong Home Brew shop (who is not on this site) come around today once I said I am going to get rid of those bloody push connectors. Like a true "customer service" bloke he came to my place, checked it all for me and we are on a...

    Co2 Leaking - Had Enough

    Thanks Skillz...You can tell just how quick I reply to yours and the previous comment that I am desperate for solutions. My local HBS said the same but it concerns me that if , while waiting 6 weeks for the beer s gas and "mature", if there is a very very small leak in 1 of the kegs, the beer...

    Co2 Leaking - Had Enough

    Fair question GaB. No I have sprayed the best soapy water I know everywhere and can not find it but having said that, I did the last time, in a desperate attempt, install a 4 way gas valve which was pretty hard to test as such. I could say this is the problem but there is only so far my pension...
