I have a second hand original Barley Crusher Malt Mil that is time to part with. This is the original 'Barley Crusher' branded item from the USA not a Chinese knock-off as in the ebay listing. It is in excellent condition and should last a life time. I will post pics over the weekend. Looking at...
My win was based on the judges award and the overall winner was based on the judges votes also, not the peoples, which I think it fair. The People's Choice has more to do with how many mates you bring. It was awarded to Aaron from Melbourne for his IPA. I must have been close. I think if you...
I won my Category (Brewers Choice), but was pipped for Overall winner by a Dark Mild. The Dark Mild was delicious, but a brave choice from the judges to put in Beer Deluxe across the country. I post full results when I get them.
Thanks for that, I watched, but was not convinced. A guy from Keg King 'saying so' doesn't 'make it so'. Happy to be convinced but a little higher quality information will be needed to get me to change my opinion.
I'm with Pratty on this one. Heat transfer is all about maximising the contact surface area between the beer and the coolant and an ice slurry provides the best contact with the plate chiller.
Hey nice to hear from you Dan. I am sure we will have plenty of time to catch up tomorrow and try each otter's brews. You won't have made Yob any happier with your RIS making the finals. A RIS against a Kolsch, that is interesting, tough job for the judges. Cheers, Grant
Dropped the keg of New World Kolsch off today and a single bottle for judging. Judging is tomorrow morning and peoples choice Sunday afternoon. Hope a few of you can make it on Sunday, should be a good afternoon (Sunday 3.00-6.00pm Beer Deluxe, Fed Square)

The typical does rate is 1L/min for 1 min for 23L batch, so 1L per batch. So enough for 110 batches, but you will have losses so would think you should get at least 70-80 batches out of it.
I agree that it avoids problems if the state and AABC are aligned. However remember that the AABC doesn't adopt the BJCP styles and categories as a whole. They pick and chose their styles and arrange the categories such that they are manageable from a competition perspective. So the AABC 2012...
It is far from clear which guidelines will be used. The VicBrew and AABC website do not have any information. However I note that SA state they are not using the BJCP 2015 guidelines for the state competition. I have send a query to VicBrew and will post a response when received.
