Thanks Mark! I guess I over carbed it from the beginning, when I filled this keg with the soda syrup, I checked online for what pressure for soft drink and most suggested 30 PSI so guess I over carbed it from the start or I didn't read all the info. I will release the built up pressure over...

Hi guys/gals, Just upgraded my keezer to flow control disconnects from kegland (newer plastic ones) and just after a little help, currently waiting for a beer to keg so filled a keg with some soft drink (soda stream mix) chilled to 4c and then force-carbed it at 35PSI by shaking the keg, then I...

Hi guys, wanting to start freezing yeast again and noticed my old Glycerine hasn't been stored properly, would this stuff from Woolworths be the same https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/productdetails/179964/sanofi-glycerine says its for skin problems, so guess its just not classified as food...

Ok thanks for the help guys, will use the pad in my FV chamber as the bellt is getting a little old

To try and stop the temperature getting too low and be more stable i guess

Hey guys, Built a Keezer about 6 months ago, but haven't got around to adding heating to it, just been running it with a inkbird controller for the freezer and that's it. Put the temp probe in a bottle near the kegs for temp. Now i bought a new heat pad as i read somewhere this will be fine...

This is what i did, did BIAB for about 3 years, and recently bought a Robobrew, still use the urn as a HLT for my sparge water, and cos i measured out markings on the sight glass also ensures i get correct levels into the robo until i can do a sight glass mod. BIAB is a great start going into...

Really only looking to filter water for brewday, don't drink the tap water yet, currently only using for everything but consumption. So really just want a basic filter to remove the sediment, will get a good boil anyway so doubt anything will survive.

Haha no i realise that after reading, just need to work out best way to use the water

Hi guys, Just moved to a place with only tank water, would something like this be good to just filter out all the sediment? http://puretec.com.au/phone/ct15-counter-top-water-filter.html Need something easy to install and preferably connects to tap. I'll be boiling it anyway so just looking...

Its $4 for 10L so would be about $14 for water for my set up doing all grain. Might just filter the tap water for sediment and then pre boil and see if the rainwater is ok. What would be a typical water make up for rainwater so i can eyeball some water additions?

Haha just came here to ask if rainwater would be ok to brew with, just moved to a new place, but guess I don't drink it so why use it in my beer. If I use bottled water is it a clean slate for water additions?

Thanks for the reply guys, might site there on Friday and actually see how often it clicks in. I prob just happen to walk in garage everytime its on haha

Yea I currently have the probe in a 2l glass bottle. Might make up something over the weekend using a 2l plastic bottle to help suspend it more in the centre away from the walls.
