Johnno, Mate you can do what ever you like ! There's no one thing in homebrew. Saying that..... You can buy small amounts on LME (liquid malt extract) Coopers sell a can, but try dried , it's fine Sugar , well maybe one rule , use dextrose mate not sugar. even in your kit brews Don't get to...

Big d Best thing ever happened up here a bloke started a homebrew shop out of his house. Now I can order what ever I require and he's cheaper than me having it send up. I used to order from 'Malthouse' they have a website and are good. They will sell me 25Kg of Pilsner malt for $55 , plus...

Interesting question Brendon, I would like to know if it's OK as well , I know someone who has made their mash tun manafold out of this stuff. Easy I agree , but in constant hot mash does it leach out toxins? I don't know but would like too. I did put a piece in a mug , filled it with boiling...

Well I painted the outside with acid , then hosed it off , looks a lot better. No not all gleaming but OK I am going to use one for a boiler one for HLT , I know looking smick will not affect the taste of my brews , but that's just me , I build something it's gotta look good too. You're gunna be...

She'll be right Johnno , I've done that for years. I am using Grumpys "one shot" now , but bleach works fine What do you brew ? Cheers Batz :chug:

I have just finished cutting the top out of two kegs , one an old 18 Gallon job. Now it's not really a problem but , if I were to deciede to polish the kegs up to look all smick , what's the easy way to do it ? I am not interested in rubbing for hours with wet and dry , some type of acid? Just...

Sorry it's all about racking , I brew lagers and rack when airlock activity slows , at 10c that's after about 2 weeks at 25c after about 3-4 days. And it makes a difference , although I've never had those vegimite tastes before racking , but cleaner and crisper
