The BrewDog back catalogue has some good stuff in there, I haven't made any yet though, but can't pass up a good free recipe! :D https://www.brewdog.com/diydog

Pardon my ignorance, but what do you mean by "well modified malts"? And miss X-Factor? But how will I know what Guy Sebastien is wearing nowadays?!?!?!

Hi all, I think I already know the answer to this one, but thought it was worth putting out there for those who know better to tell me that its stupid. ;) So, I've been BIAB'ing for about a year now, with only 5 brews under my belt, mainly due to the fact that September saw the arrival of my...

Still "getting around to it" Drew, so probably give it another month or so, and I might have had some spare time on my hands! :P

Thought this was worth putting down for a bit of a laugh (or a "WFT?"). I just had a quick not really serious look for grain mills and found these, byt the same seller... Malt Muncher Grain Mill - $125...

Awesome, thanks everyone, that gives me quite a bit to go on. FYI, a post on another forums suggested this one to me: Oatmeal Stout (12L batch) Original Gravity (OG): 1.048 (°P): 11.9 Final Gravity (FG): 1.010 (°P): 2.6 Alcohol (ABV): 4.97 % Colour (SRM): 29.8 (EBC): 58.6 Bitterness (IBU)...

Hi all, With my second all grain BIAB now in the fermenter for its second week (a Pacific Ale Clone) and the oncoming on Canberra "brisk" months, I thought I should try my hand at something a bit darker. A friend from Melbourne runs a coffee roasting company down on the Morning Peninsula, and...

G'day all, So I'm massively one single brew into my BIAB adventure, and all reports thus far are pretty good, though I've still got a crate or two of leftover kit beers to drink before I hook into the 50-odd stubbies of my "Maiden Galactic Voyage" Pale Ale. But I've been thinking of what...

Cheers, but I was probably going to go for a bulk 25k bag, so I probably don't want that milled all at once, given that I'll likely last me the best part of 18 months or so, haha. :) Anyhow, sorry for the quick hijack. As you were, people...

Good to know, Steve. I used the Veloria in my very first BIAB (yet still bottle conditioning that though) so depending on how that turns out might have to pay you a visit (I live just around the corner!), I'll just have to invest in some handi-pails and a grain mill first...

Why not use some Eucalyptus Honey in the mix? I imagine that'd impart some of the flavor (not used honey in a brew before thuogh, so have no idea)

After months of slow saving and acquisitions (thanks Violet, you may be the cutest damn 1 yr old daughter I could ever have asked for, but you do take up a lot of both my available money and time) I'm FINALLY ready to give this a shot. Have my 40L Buffalo boiler, with a ball valve fitted. Have...

Yep, I did cool it... in the kitchen sink full of water, changed once. Im bemused. If any Canberrans want a taste of this smokey-ness, just say the word. :)

Hi All, I don't speak out much on these forums, but do a fair bit of perusing. However, this time, my perusing has come up empty handed. So its time to cal on the big guns, that being you guys. A month or so ago, Coopers Recipe of the month was a golden ale (recipe...

Wow I'm looing at doing exactly the same thing as this currently (Have the Pi, and the three probes all set up, but just trying to workout the best software for the job. I currently have some hacked together pre-exising projects that log a live webpage I can check (on my home network) to see...
