Friends & Brewers Alike The Government is attempting to implement a country-wide Internet content filter which, in concept I agree with, however has so far proven to be completely impracticable, totally unreliable, will grind internet speeds to a halt & sets a very very bad precedent. :angry...

Easiest way to keep a Vista machine stable is to leave void of energy. Ubuntu 9.04 is awesome. Add the Ubuntu Tweak utility & the ubuntu studio packages and you've got a well rounded versatile, powerful and stable machine... can do lots with not much PC horsepower. Try ubuntu by booting your...

Recently I bought a new Lexus 350 but I had to return it to the dealer the next day because I couldn't get the radio to work. The car salesman explained that the radio was voice activated and demonstrated this brilliant feature. "Nelson," the salesman called to the radio. The radio then...

Crew I'd very much like to update my odd assortment of beer glasses and mugs. After a recent discovery regarding my Micromatic regulator that pour pressure should sit at 100kpa, my preferred Grolsch 250ml glasses need an upgrade. Xmas last year my brother bought me a 5 pack of Schofferhofer...

Birkdale Bob may be a worthwhile read? http://www.aussiehomebrewer.com/forum/inde...showtopic=22830

Gentlemen thanks for your input. I was mystified about the regulator's irregular (irrational) behaviour. Recently i noticed that the reg didn't loose any pressure cylinder side when doing a carbonation at 300kpa. My standard pour pressure has always been around the 60 to 80kpa mark. After...

Gang a few months ago i bought from Rossco (you de man Rossco!) a new Micromatic Reg as my old Cigweld unit failed (cost me a new bott of Co2 also). Anyway, i've been a bit paranoid about loosing another CO2 cylinder and wanted to make sure I had no leaks before leaving the CO2 cylinder tap on...

Now i have a replacement E Size Aligal 15 cylinder & A micromatic reg! Pressure for both input & output is a lovely steady reading. A little question - 30PSI (my old Cigweld carbonation pressure) equates to approx 200KPA. I've had my reg set on 200KPA and connected to a fresh keg for over a week...

darryn emailed Nev @ Gryphon and he offered me a discount. Also spoke to Rossco and he's also offered me a discount - there are several other items i need that Ross has that Nev doesn't. I'm all for supporting the local lads but my needs outweigh local loyalties. As for the advise on regs...

and i was wondering why the bottle side pressure had dropped from 2000 PSI to 500 PSI in about 3 weeks... f*cking failed REG!!! 1st gas bottle lasted 3 years (E size). 2nd gas bottle 3/4 gone after 3 f*cking weeks!!!! ARGHHHHH!!!! I'm going to order a micromatic from Rossco. Thanks team! If...

Since the weekend I've noticed that the output pressure going to my kegs is progressively creeping up. I set the reg output pressure to 6 PSI (my usual pour pressure). 2 days later and the output pressure had crept up to 20 PSI. I've tested this twice by resetting taking the pressure off and...

Since i've started using the keg to keg filter method with polyclar, i've had a couple of ultra clear beers (pub quality), but the last few have been rather cloudy. I'm pushing the beer thru the filter with approx 3 to 4 PSI of pressure. Takes about 25 to 30 mins. I load the polyclar into the...

Did something silly lastnight when setting up my keg A -> filter -> keg B. After adding polyclar to keg B as i normally do, i connected the keg to the line out on the filter and then PRESSURIZED the keg... this effectively pushed mixed polyclar into the line out side of the filter spilling all...

just before xmas i measured up a Westinghouse 500l chest freezer (even took down 2 empty cornelius kegs) and did some measurements. I think the unit could quite easily fit 11 x 19l cornelius kegs without to many dramas! I'm sure it could also hold 2 x 11l on the raised section also. Rick Fart...
