    Sorry mate maybe a seniors moment, but you appeared to be asking a couple of different questions, and "ago" had me stumped. Fwiw a 10 amp circuit/socket will run 15 amps no problem, just think about a kettle and a toaster plugged into a 10 amp double socket, all good, just make sure nothing else...

    What exactly is the question? None of this makes any sense. What the hell is "ago"

    Start up research help: Lock down idea - A pre-made yeast starter that saves the environment

    Land rights for gay whales, if you're "woke" enough you'll pay silly money. Really! $5 a can MAX! I honestly can't decide whether you're havin a lend or just takin the piss. (one is with intent the other is without)

    O2 Cylinder

    Just buy decent gear in the first place, this forum is littered with leaking cheap "stuff" yes duo-things I'm looking at you. Barbs and clamps for bullet proof gas, John Guest for liquid. Bunnings for an Oxy bottle and BOC (or similar) Micromatic for reg's, Not happy flying lucky snapping...

    O2 Cylinder

    +1 ^ 100% agree, starters are way more complicated than many people think, two options for you, dump a new wort onto the yeast cake or pitch 2 packs dried yeast (do not make a starter, direct pitch or rehydrate according to manufacturers recommendation) this will remove one of the variables...

    O2 Cylinder

    I've got oxy and acetylene from Bunnings, these are commercial bottles not throw away hobby stuff, and do not leak.

    Free Home Delivery

    Don't know how much you expect to pay but my LHBS charges $85 for a 6kg refill, and that's not delivered, a while back it was actually cheaper to buy a new full Chinese bottle. I'd be interested in buying a Nitro 6kg, 70/30 or pure Nitrogen, would have to be shipped though. Alternatively I have...

    Australian craft beer makers are at bursting point. So where to next?

    Aaaaargh! Hang on, on second thoughts, if we take the latest craze of 0% alcohol, mix it with the hard seltzer phenomenon. MY GOD! I've got it, the next big thing is going to be Soda Water!!! Wrap it up in a fancy can (200ml, keeps em coming back for more) and charge an exorbitant amount of...

    Australian craft beer makers are at bursting point. So where to next?

    Well shock horror, it looks like the whole alcohol free beverage movement is gaining speed, if I owned a brew pub I think a couple of offerings as an insurance policy might be called for, and of course keep an eye on what is happening in the US, we do seem to slavishly follow their lead...

    Oxygen free dry hopping - how to remove?

    ^ That's how I do it, just remember to use neodymium magnets, I've found normal magnets aren't always strong enough to support wet hops.

    Australian craft beer makers are at bursting point. So where to next?

    @Roosterboy Congratulations, and I wish you every success. The point I was trying to make is there seems to be no correlation between the price, and what is actually in the can/bottle, obviously breweries will have different costs, and markups but how do you justify $25 for a can of stout made...

    Australian craft beer makers are at bursting point. So where to next?

    Agree with Mark about the coffee and capital costs associated with breweries, so we're not comparing apples with apples, however I recently had a birthday and as a bit of a treat to myself I went into Dan's, being a stout lover but with an eclectic palate I grabbed six stouts that I'd never...

    Australian craft beer makers are at bursting point. So where to next?

    They do! Three x 500ml cans of Imperial stout, various strengths 10.5 to 13 abv, $75, Oh but you get a free glass in the box (Dan's) Excise accounts for some of it, ingredients might be an issue (raspberries are quite expensive) but overall I'm with Hangover, $50 per L = $950 for a cornie of...

    Hi all

    +1 ^^^ Listen to the wisdom. Nothing worse than asking experts/old hands for advice then ignoring it, and later kicking yourself in the arse for not listening.
