Hi Folks, Had a chance to try out my 10L Brau on Sunday - all good now that I've added sparging to the process. I have a question about programming - I understand how to program a recipe but what I don't get is how the recipes are accessed via the Brewstart menu item. At the moment, when I...

For those interested I found some more info here: https://forum.braumeisters.net/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=974 and here: https://forum.braumeisters.net/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=59

Further to my original question, for my AG brews I've been working from "Brewing Classic Styles". Just had a look at the mashing section and it states that "all mashes are assumed to be single-temperature infustion mashes...". So what's a good source that relates style to the different mash...

Thanks for the info - very useful! Cheers!

Hi Folks, A while back I bought a 10L Braumeister. It's been sitting in storage for a while as I've been a bit busy lately. Last weekend I finally got the chance to give it a run. In my previoius setup I used an esky for mashing and to keep things simple and controllable I only used one...

No, just racking. I couldn't use it for fermenting because it's too tall to fit in the fridge when the airlock is in place. The brown marks on the outside are from where I used to tape on the temperature sensor. I could clean them off but didnt' think it mattered. Also it looks like there's a...

Ok, no interest, how does $5 sound?

Ok, due to the underwhelming interest I've decided to drop the price - I'll take $40 if anyone is interested. Cheers!

Hi, Due to a reorganisation of my brewing setup I've got a 25L aluminium boiling pot for sale. The pot is fitted with a 1/2 inch spigot (tap) and has a lid. It’s been used for about 20 boils. I was thinking something like $50 would be about what it's worth although I'm open to offers...

Hi, Due to a reorganisation of my brewing setup I've got a 30L plastic fermenter with lid and tap that I no longer need. It's been used for racking and is in good condition. I was thinking $10 would be a fair price. I'm in St Kilda East. PM me if you're interested. Cheers!

Hi Folks, I'm heading to Europe for a four-week holiday this weekend. I'm spending the first week in Birmingham (on a canal boat) followed by a few days in London and then Normandy. I'm a real ale fan and I've got the CAMRA guidebook so I should be ok in Birmingham and London. Just wondering...

No-one interested?

Hi Folks, My Dad passed away recently and when clearing out his shed I came across an old bottle capper. It's a bit rusty but works fine. I don't need it as use swing tops these days. For those interested it's one of these...

Hi, Last year my single Goldings plant produced a huge number of flowers. Unfortunately I couldn't use all of them so this year I'm thinking of getting a vacuum sealer for preserving those I can't use immediately. I was thinking of something like this...

Hi Folks, Was in my local Woolies bottle shop (a BWS I think) and saw four-packs of Grand Ridge Pale Ale on sale for $10. I'm a fan of Gippsland Gold so I couldn't resist. It's an APA made with Ella, Topaz and Enigma hops. Tastes pretty good to me! I've never seen this beer before and can't...

Thanks! Makes sense! Cheers!

Hi Folks, I'm an AG brewer - so far I've done about 20 batches. Due to time constraints I don't have time to do a full AG batch so I'd like to have a go at an extract plus steep batch using the partial boil volume method described by Palmer. From what I've read, to do this you add half the malt...

Hi Folks, I'm still on the quest to make a decent UK-style ale. My last couple of batches (I bottle) have been over-carbed and I think the reason is because I've been using 1968. I could not figure out the reason for the over-carbing but after reading the threads about it here it seems that I'm...

Hi Folks, I'm currently reading Stan Hieronymus' For the Love of Hops and in it he mentions "dwarf" hop varieties. I've got a fourth-year Goldings which is doing well but is a bit of a pain to grow in an urban area due to its size. Dwarf varieties grown on low-trellises make a lot of sense for...
