All this gear is now sold.

G'day folks I'm selling 5 19 litre corny kegs and a 6.8kg Mykegonlegs CO2 bottle with Harris regulator. Four of the corny kegs have standard ball lock fittings, the pink one has pinlock fittings. Kegs have been used regularly until very recently, are clean and hold pressure. $60 each. CO2 bottle...

Thanks mate. No, not too late at all. Will check those out.

Thanks CC - good suggestion and will do.

That's an excellent suggestion re: the darkest malts - I'll do that. Thanks for the help!

Cheers Goatchop. And then there's the Special B... Yes, I'm wondering if the 5% RB is going to be a bit harsh in this...

Cheers. Brewing it this weekend so will keep you posted.

Doing a bit of a clean-out of specialty malts and yeast and thought that a Belgian Stout might just do the job... Found this recipe in a NZ homebrew book... what do you think? Is it a bit too kitchen-sinky? Cheers ToG Belgian Stout Batch Size: 22.00 L Boil Size: 26.80 L Boil Time: 90 min...

I only use half a tablet for a c. 23 litres batch and that seems to work okay so I'd reckon half a tablet ought to be plenty for 10 litres. Cheers ToG

All sounds sensible to me. I'll culture up another yeast for this weekend's festive brewing and wait with anticipation...

So I imagine that you won't be posting anything out until next week some time?

Thanks LQ. I'll move mine down one floor... Cheers ToG

My package arrived today - thanks Yob! Just a quick question: is it okay to store the hop shots in the freezer? Cheers and all the best in the future

Thanks Haydos. Yeah, I should have read the BYO article more closely. It suggested a 20-odd IBU to start with.. I went with something similar with FWH, then a double charge while whirlpooling. It's fermenting away steadily as I type. Need to up the sparge a bit to make up for so much wort loss...

Thanks for the response. I'm in Armidale if that helps?
