Just a bunch of photos from my brewing adventures

Haha, thanks all. I will definately try it on the popcorn. Good to know this before I tried to brew with it. At least it didn't set me back much.

Does anyone get into footy tipping here? Should we start our own comp?

I bought some yeast from a health food shop in Bendigo, and all it says is "Brewer's Yeast" on the label. It has no brand (it's just a white label with nutrition info) anyhow, it only cost a couple of bucks, and I was just wondering if I could use it in a brew and what kind of tolerence it will...

I'm in Bendigo, and I've contact BAD brewers, but they are not exactly active at the moment.

Found this recipe here: http://brewing-at-home.tumblr.com/page/4 and wondered if it would work and what kind of yeast to use. Ginger Beer 1kg root ginger 2 lemons 2 limes 1tsp cream of tartar 1tsp crushed chilli 500g molasses 2kg while sugar Food process the ginger into pot...

Thanks Adamski29 - what you have covered here is what was in the video I saw, but thanks for clearing up the timing thing in regards to the hops timing. They also showed how to make a mash tun to keep my mash at the right temps. I think it's all starting to make sense :) Will also check out the...

K so I mash the first four, then when I boil the wort, I add the lactose and the boiled down LME, then add the bitter after 60mins, cool down, then pitch yeast? what is the difference between 40L and 80L crystal grain? I am more of a visual learner, and whilst I've been reading the john palmer...

I am in Bendigo, and would love to meet up with some brewers for advice and what not, but I am afraid I'd be the only girl.... is there any other bendigo ladies brewing out there?

Doh, I would have but it conflicts with an engine rally I am photographing :(

Yeah the guy intended it to be sweet, he made it with a creamy soda flavour in mind. In his taste test, he wrote that it wasn't too cloying (what ever that means)

Thanks for your feedback. I would like to stay true to the recipe, so i'll stick to grains rather than extracts. I shall check out the Palmer guide. It'll be a challenge but I'll get there. :)

k so how i understand it (from what I've been reading), I boil the LME to make the caramelly/toffee flavour, add that to the grains and boil them. then after 60 mins, I add the bitter addition and boil for a bit longer, then cool it down, chuch it in fermenter and pitch yeast? then do a...

Thanks for the reply. I think I am gonna have to do a bit of reading to figure out exactly what to do with these now I know what they are :s - I am a very new brewer. Anyone recommend a good book?

Hey all, I am a relatively new brewer, having only brewed the following: kit of morgan's ginger beer JAO honey mead some simple apple cider with ALDI juice and a few experimental wines well, being not much of a beer drinker, I wanted to start with something a little sweeter than your regular...

My brew label is "Toad Popsicle Brews" - basically, two words my friends and I laugh about is the word toad and the word popsicle (say it over and over again, they're fun to say) so I stuck them together to come up with a name. My grapho friend designed me a label. as for each individual name...

Did you try this in the end? how'd it go, I am keen to try it!
