What a legend.

Thanks for the reply - Where you interested or just being helpful to others? I live in NSW - Sutherland Shire

Hi guys, I am looking to offload my homebrew equipment as I am getting out of the hobby for spell. I have to offer a 23L plastic coopers vessel and glass Hydrometer. Bench capping device, bottle tree and bottle washer. And a bunch of home brew bottles. Would be great for a "green brewer" as all...

Just been reading a bunch of posts in different threads on the FWKs and I must say I am keen to get started myself this long weekend! My LHBS is awesome so I will mosey on in there one day this week and grab one to try. I am a fan of easy drinking, session style beer so pale ales and the like...

Awesome info.

Steeping. I have a "friend" who gets me the grain 98% alcohol base so it does pack a nice warm punch to the gullet. My wifes extended family are Italian and very traditional in food prep so I have been blessed with a good solid recipe that keeps everyone happy.

Absolute champion effort for the help Bribie! Thanks mate

Does it come in a packet like the kit yeast? Is it pitched the same way? Any info would be great...

I live in the Sutherland Shire of Sydney and have no outlet to purchase 'wax free' lemons for making Limoncello as they need to be of a certain quality that I can be happy to use. Unmarked large Meyer lemons or similar would be ideal but really just happy to take what I can get at this stage...

Any recommendations on a yeast substitute for this kit? If so what would be the overall outcome? Just saw the same question posted in another thread and was curious myself as to what my options would be seeing as though this is by far my favorite brew at the moment.

Good on ya Pilchard!

+1 For the coopers DIY kit. It's how I started and I can definitely recommend it. PET bottles are good for a few batches just don't use really hot water when rinsing. Welcome to the hobby. It is addictive and replicating the same results will only add to the enjoyment!

From one noob to another. Welcome Pilchard!

Thanks for the replies. I obviously left out the fact that after using the pink stuff I used idaphor for sanitising. So yeah all good with cleaning.

Had a second whiff of the bottled stuff and nearly spewed. All bottles tipped out and already and put down another batch after a thorough wash and sanitizer that I started last night with leaving "pink stuff" in the fermenter along with all the gear I used. Fingers crossed the new batch goes...
