I don’t know if the mill I’m using is a MillMaster. I got it secondhand. It only seems to have a crankshaft on one side of the mill. I thought it was just a keg land dual roller mill.

I’ve just bought the Detroit mixing drill. Good torque. Nice low speed. BUT, I’m using the chuck to attach it to the driveshaft on my mill, and cannot get it to grip securely. I tightened the chuck using the supplied chuck key as tight as it would go, and rotated the drill multiple times...

Hi all. I’ve just moved house and, as part of the process, sold my old DIY kegerator which was built from a cheap fridge I got off Gumtree. I’ve now got an upside down Fisher & Paykel fridge with French doors that I’m considering converting. The nice thing is that it holds 6 kegs and the...

I'm back in - but for about an hour it wouldn't load for me :( I've only just started using a RAPT temperature controller a week ago and so far have had no issues. Is the RAPT platform normally pretty reliable? Thanks

Does anyone know if the RAPT portal is down? When I try to log in, all I get is the flashy vertical lines. Get the same result from the mobile app on my phone. Thanks

Lot's of people mention using an Inkbird - does it provide any advantage over the Keg King Mk II Temperature controller? Cheers

I have temporarily repurposed an upright freezer that still gets use the family kitchen. I'm using a Keg King Mk II Temperature controller and a low wattage heating pad. It means I'm running two cables in through the front door (temperature probe and a 240v for the heating pad. A bit worried...

Resurrecting this thread - sorry - please let me know if I should start a new one. My fermentation chest freezer died this weekend, mid-ferment :( So looking for some new options. I'm considering an upside down Fisher & Paykel fridge/freezer given the comments earlier in this thread about...

Hi All, Just wondering if anyone has an all-grain or BIAB recipe that is pretty close to Stone and Wood garden ale. I want to brew a mid-strength session ale, and quite like this beer. I’ve done a search of the forums and the Internet and can’t seem to find an all-grain recipe anywhere. If...

Hi all, I’ve bought in the last year and a half two 3 way brass gas manifolds for distributing gas to multiple kegs inside my beer fridge. One of these was for my fridge and one was from my dads. Both of the manifolds have developed a fault whereby gas is not released through one or more of the...

Unless I’m mistaken, I think iBrew.com.au sell Harris regulators that will do what you want. I have a dual secondary reg from them that works well. https://www.ibrew.com.au/products/harris-hospitality-regulators-dual-and-triple Cheers

Hi Mark, Think I will set up a keg with the scrubbing solution you mentioned. A couple of questions come to mind. 1. Due to space limitations in my beer fridge, I thought that I would put the scrubbing keg outside my fridge with the gas bottle in line. Connection would be gas bottle ->...

This is an old thread, but I have a similar question. I brew in a bag and so far have only brewed ales. I’m keen to try my and at a larger, and really like this Green Coast brew from Stone and Wood brewery. Does anyone have a full mash recipe for this and would be willing to share their...

Hi Wolfman1: do you have recipe you could share for the Vienna Citra SMaSH APA? Cheers

Hi All, Looking for some suggestions of a favourite SMaSH all grain ale recipes for BIAB. I’m looking to do a couple of 10L brews in quick succession in order to improve my technique. I’m aiming to improve my beer clarity, and mash efficiency. So tell me which SMaSH recipes get you excited...
