Hi All, Home renos so getting rid of my set-up that I haven't used for a while. 4 x 19lt Cornies Kegorator with single tap (with flow control) fits 2 19lt kegs Brew Fridge. Bit dodgie and old, but does the job. With thermostat to set to "about 20" or "about 3" degrees. Regulator (no gas)...

This is one we did for Murrays a few years ago.

Maybe someone with more knowledge could do one of those poll things so we can vote on the best brands - straight up, no adding stuff. The, a separate poll with some "bits"... would be interesting results.

Wouldn't mind... I've been meaning to organise a time to get some people around to taste my beers and get some advice on how to ramp them up a bit. Been brewing K&K for about 15 years as a cheap way to keep the fidge full. Then found out that it could be improved so have spent about 2 years...

Thanks guys!

Hi All. I've brewed a Coopers Dark Ale, then turned the temp in my fridge down to about 1 degree to settle it before kegging - then forgotten about it. I've now realised that my brew has been sitting on the sludge at 1 degree for about 4 weeks... Will it still be OK to keg? Cheers, Tim

I heard there's a new cooker out that you can put on a hotplate to brown-off, then pick up the whole thing and put it in the electric bit to slow-cook...

Hi Guys, In a mad rush to start carbonating a stout, I connected the gas to the "out"... there was a gurgling sound and the black beer ran up the gas line, through the splitter then down into the chilli beer in the other keg. So... how much of the stout have I lost? and has the chilli beer...

I saw Terry O'Brien is selling them now - can't remember pricing off hand... at Strathpine.

I've made a bundle of chilli beers - some good, some bad. I would recommend the smallest chillies you can get - I've got pequins growing that are about 8mm long. I then dry them. This seems to reduce the oil content, as I think too much oil effects the head retension. I put 2 tablespoons of...

Used to go to a vege restaurant in Sydney called vegetalia (or somthing like that) and they did this, but laid the cheese on a snow pea before crumbing it... gives a great fresh crunch to it.

Hi All, The rotting/drying thing attacking my pequins hasn't seemed to stop the little bugger... heaps more on the plant and still flowering. :)

Hi Guys, Wondering if anyone has any advice for me... My pequin chillies are going great guns - but the last week a number of the lower leaves are turning yellow and falling off, and the new leaves at the top of the plants are shrivilling and crispy... The plant seems very healthy...

I don't think I've had a brew stay in my house that long... especially now I keg. I use dried chillis now, get's rid of the "capsicum" flavour and just leaves the heat.
