Hey, Sounds like a good deal! I was just about to buy a $300 my keg on legs, but this is clearly a far better deal! Keen to hear if it works out! Cheers.

Sounds like I missed out on a great swap day! Looking forward to trying everyone's brews when I pick them up later this week! My Robust Porter (3) is ready to go, the bottles feel a bit over carbed (so be careful ^_^ , lol).

Hey, unfortunately I will be unable to attend the swap day, :( ! But I'd still love to participate in the swap! :icon_cheers: Any chance I can drop my case of at your place Q, and maybe Fents could take mine up too? Cheers guys.

+ 1 for drinking the wheat beer within a month. I've made 2 wheat beers, both were fantastic for the first few weeks then declined rapidly in several respects after that. They were still drinkable but nothing compared to how they had tasted earlier!

ROBUST PORTER :D 5.33 KG Marris Otter 680 G Munich Malt 450 G Light Crystal 340 G Chocolate Malt 227 G Roast Malt 46 G Goldings 60 min 17 G Goldings 15 min 17 G Goldings 0 min Fermentis Safale US-05 Mashed at 67 degrees c. Its still fermenting but should end around 6.5% abv.

Hey, Brewed my Robust Porter thismorning, went well, ended with exactly 23 ltrs as hoped for, should turn out to be a tastey brew! Smells great! :icon_drool2:

I enjoy a good porter all year round, so no objections here! The more porters the better IMHO! :D

Hey, Unless there are any objections I'll be brewing (an all grain) Robust Porter for the Xmas swap! I'll hopefully brew it over the next few weeks so it has a little time to age! Cheers. NUMBER - BREWER - BEER TYPE 1 Reg - No idea yet 2 mark_m - summer ale?? 3 moonee - Robust Porter 4 Rook...

Hey, + 1 for 'Brewing Classic Styles' and John Palmers 'How to Brew'. With those two books you can't go wrong!

Hey Wdrummond, I'd suggest that you attempt an all grain 'american pale ale' as your first brew. Although not exactly the same as the cascade first harvest, its not that different, and I think a great first ag brew. I think you'l enjoy the cascade hops! Good luck Cheers,

Hey Q, Sounds great, count me in! Well done for organising that dude, will be interesting! Cheers!

Hey, If you get a chance check out the Mountain Goat Brewery in Richmond, you'l have a great night there! Its easy to get to by public transport, just give them a call or check on line to ensure its open first. Cheers,

Hey, Looks good to me, I'm not really sure if its good or bad value?? It would be easier than setting one up yourself (very helpful for me), and it has a one year warranty. I've been looking at getting one of these too, I havn't heard anything negative about them yet..?

Hey, Count me in, I just finished the Xmas in July Swap beers, looking forward to their replacements! (I'm pretty sure Cummins and Voota will be keen too.) I voted Sat 22nd. Cheers BEER TYPE 1 Reg No idea yet 2 3 Moonee - Not sure yet 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Fenton NFI 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19...
