I haven't used it but I remember a thread on here discussing how to make it yourself.

I first walked into G & G when they were up on Rosamond Rd. Got me started homebrewing with plenty of great advice. Unfortunately the expansion saw them hire a few dodgy counter staff that simply could not be trusted. Stopped buying from them years ago. John himself has done an enormous amount...

I've been using the cling-wrap method for years without any problem. The only time I use the lid and airlock is when I put novelty condoms over the airlock, they inflate about three feet...keeps the punters entertained.

Was there any activity in the fermenter during those 7 days?

F... me, for once I agree with you

My Coopers fermenter only lasted one brew. Stirred up a kit & kilo. Afterward I went to clean it and found I'd scored the inside pretty badly. The plastic is way softer than the Bunnings water barrels. I figured there was no chance of sanitising it properly so it went to the kerb. I just use...

Could simply be a market correction. Craft beer is high end luxury item and Australia just does not have number of buyers to support the number of breweries that have opened up. What would hurt Asahi, and probably DanMurphys, is your local brewery delivering cheap, no-nonsense ale, direct to...

My best Toucan results were from two stout kits and some Nottingham yeast.

I'd swap out the Light Malt Extract for Wheat Extract. The s-33 will love it.

I haven't used these yet. They can be filled with the hot wort and kept until you want to use them. https://www.kegland.com.au/products/10-x-20l-hot-fill-wine-wort-cask-bladder-hot-cube-alternative-irradiated?_pos=1&_psq=bladder&_ss=e&_v=1.0

Palmer's 'How To Brew' served me well at the beginning. The latest edition may cover hazy ipa's. Don't brew them myself.

You're right. Victoria uses the aussie dollar. It will have to secede and create it's own currency if it wanted to print money.

This is what happens most of the time, but it does not have to happen. The gov can create whatever money it wants but unless it spends wisely it might cause inflation.

This is the story of so many forums. I like to think that all the trolls are just one wanker talking to himself.

How is scorching going to happen. It's a kit. You mix the ingredients and pitch the yeast.
