Hi Guys, so it’s time to part ways with my 50L BM. I just don’t have the time to brew these days. It’s in excellent condition. Used approximately 15 times. Always thoroughly cleaned after each brew. Comes with short malt pipe. Location, Melbourne Australia. $1700 Free delivery can be arranged...

Good idea mate. I honestly couldn't think of a fix that wouldn't affect the beer. I'd mashed in at 66c and by the time would have figured that one out the whole mash schedule would have been way out. Oh well, a big stuff up had to happen one day. I'm about 50 AG brews in with BIAB prior to the...

So Ive just completed my 2nd brew on my 50lt unit. First brew went well, the only trouble i had was lifting the malt pipe out after mashing. I ended up getting a sliding door track from bunnings for $40 odd bucks and rigging it up as a sort of gantry with a rope pulley system in store for todays...

It's a 40L Crown with concealed element, and yes it's still available.

Update: All kegs, Pluto gun, grain mill, and regs are spoken for. I do have a crown urn with concealed element and hop blocker left for $220. Urn is near new.

Sorry, grain mill sold.

Yeah very quick. As I posted the topic I thought I'd better go to the shed and take inventory of what I've got before someone calls. I was half way down the driveway when the phone rang! I ended up letting $380 worth of grain and hops go for $150, and I'm happy with that. I'm scaling down on...

Sorry guys, had a call within 3 mins and it's gone. Feel free to call tomorrow Charst, as I do have a Grain Mill you might be able to pry from my hands :D

I'm taking a hiatus from brewing for a year or so and have recently stocked up on base malt and a heap of specialty malts that I don't want to go to waste. I also have some hops in the freezer. All items were purchased from Craftbrewer or Grain and Grape. I'm on the Mornington Peninsula, so if...

Yes I did chill Acasta. I was just thinking the same thing QldKev, only no way to repeat it if it is that good. And just to clarify this was the only hop addition of the brew. The wort tastes very bitter and the hops are definately there so we'll see. Would be nice to know if there's a sliding...

Well my crown urn craped it self today just before a 300g 10 min hop addition for a 10 min IPA. By the time I worked out what had happened the temp had dropped to 96c. I threw the hops in anyway and hoped for the best. So my question is, how much is hop utilization and isomerization affected...

I had the same thing happen today on my Crown urn. I was all doughed in when I noticed the sight glass had a small drip forming every few seconds, so I tried tightening it a little and SNAP! I had a wort fountain going on. I had to get the wife to block the hole while I tore the shed apart...

Nice work Can. That beer must taste good knowing all the hard work that went into it.

Quote:BribieG-"I was always under the (mistaken) impression that the Crown Urns with a concealed element were sheer flat bottomed inside with the element under that, giving an indirect heat and hence a poor boil. I was at a brew club meeting last night and actually got my first look at one, and...
