Is that a flare nut? If it is that might be the go

I can't seem to find a replacement tailpiece nut for this shank. The brew store hadn't seem this type before. The one pictured had the back break off from being overtightened so it no longer seals. Anyone got any idea? The thread diameter is about 9.5mm while the minor diameter is 9mm

Actually beer contains too few carbohydrates to be tested on the GI scale. http://www.beerandcarbs.com/info.htm#error2

With that OG and FG you'll be having about 15 carbs per pint, about the same as a slice of bread. Next time you see your doc ask him about the difference between carbohrdrates and energy and what you should be focussing on.

Hi, I'm a type 1 diabetic and I can say you most need to worry about the remaining sugar content in the beer (carbohydrates). I've just brewed a 6.6% Saison that's only got about 5 carbs per pint. You want to mash low (64) and use use a yeast with high attenuation (WY3711) so that you get your...

I know Collin at Brew Your Own at Home in Kambah fills bottles, not sure about the testing though.

The carafa is partly because I have some that needs to be used and partly because of the partial boil and the colour i'll end up with after i add my top up water.

At the moment it's Weyermann's Caramunich I Malt, how are the two different? Does the caramunich add much colour because I don't want to go into schwarzbier territory. How much do you think I should add?

How does this recipe sound for a Munich dunkel? I've never used Caramunich before, what sort of flavours will i get from it? Type: Partial Mash Batch Size (fermenter): 20.00 l Boil Size: 15.82 l Boil Time: 75 min End of Boil Volume 14.45 Brewhouse Efficiency: 70.00 % Final Bottling Volume...

Excellent, just what a i was looking for. I'm one happy guy :D
