    New 19L cornies: KK vs Mangrove Jack's ?

    I have found with the chinese kegs that its the posts themselves that cause me issues with disconnects etc... i have now replaced all disconnects with CMB, and have AEB posts on all my kegs, very happy with the setup.

    Gippy Brewers

    Howdy, I am in Wonthaggi and would definately be interested if anything gets organised in south gippy. My brewery, Tipsy Squirrel, is a 20l per batch BIAB, all grain brewing. I ferment using 26l kegmenters and keg into cornies, which find their way into my 3 tap keezer. Just harvested my hop...

    Help with recurring infection...

    No I certainly wasn't relying on cleaning from 2 weeks ago... hehe. I cleaned and sanitised the silicon hose immediately after the previous brew. Once I discovered it was infected, I had a look at the silicon hose and noticed it was well colonised by nasties. So I do believe now that boiling...
