Bump! C'mon Qlders other states rely on our case swap threads for amusement too you know.

Love too Seb. Also have some hardware to return to you. Chap Chap

Bugger Rudi... As you said it's not the phone itself but the contacts and information lost. <_< :lol: GOLD! Chap Chap

Bloody good point schooey. I have always said brewing a good beer is by thirds. Recipe, Water/Mashing/Boiling and finally proper fermentation techniques and good yeast selection. Wait is that 5? :lol: Anyway I guess my point is that care and diligence is required at every stage. Chap Chap

Thanks Schooey for the insight. Yep with you there about the sparge/re-circ argument. Interesting that you hit the same numbers which I think is fantastic BTW. Have you notice any determinable differences with you house beers? Less clarity, more clarity, etc etc? Chap Chap

Schooey, You are a big shirt lifter! Seriously, the whole malt pipe thingameebob on those lovely bits of kit. How effective is it? I really like the idea but have always wondered how effective they really are as your not really sparging the grain bed. Would be interested on your opinion...

Agree with all and above. What I am most struggling with is decent vessels. Seriously thinking about have some custom made. I like the idea of having the mashing fully automated but wince at the idea of automated valves. Call me old skool but i don't mind swearing at the tap I just turned...

Contact Ross at craftbrewer. He has cheap areosol can with Oxygen. I use it all the time. Chap Chap Or you could use Olive Oil? :ph34r:

It's so true I am a PID-Tard :lol: Chap Chap

Very note worthy rigs. I have always admired these one's of Franko and Pumpy's. And can testify they make fantastic beers (but don't tell them that) ;) Couldn't agree with your sentiments more. The most tiresome thing about brewing is the amount of cleaning. I like the idea of 100% stainless...

Sorry Brad I should have acknowledged that not only are you the best welder in the entire world you have the best rig as well! As for the kind offer to help me to weld, as great as that privilege would be, you know I like to stuff things up all on my own. Ravs Still pondering over single or...

WTF? 20mm thick? Were you worried about a tsunami getting it? :lol: And people laugh at me for over engineering things FFS! You'll need your weaties when lifting that aroun the brewery LOL CHAP CHAP

No chalky but I have been in deep conversations with Kirem and he has me convinced to have a shot. I will however more than likely in the first instance go PID SSR's and then update when the BT is fully functional. Cheers Chap Chap

+1 SJ I was seriously going to go down this line till FJ's post. I trust his feedback and judgement. Chap Chap

What size mild steel flat bar would you be chasing? I reckon I could.. ahem... cough... source something for you? As for the longevity of those rollers I would suggest hell would freeze over first before those bad *** boys wear out. Nice touch with plating also. Can't wait to see the final...

Agree CM2. There has been one constant source of inspiration for me to build the ultimate home brewery and it's this brewery BEST HOME BREWERY IN THE WORLD AND IT"S UNDER YOUR NOSES! I reckon Jonno has done one of the best ground up fabrication jobs I have ever seen. I don't need to look...

Yep agree on all counts there Argon. I guess what I am after is the smallest foot print without compromising function. As you stated there is a whole heap of other brewing equipment that needs space in the brewery as well. 42lt Final vols for doubles and 21lt for singles. I am happy to put a...

HOLY FRICK! :o Talk about going guts Wallace. You are a brewer after me own heart, go heavy or go home! What are going to make the housing from? Cheers Chap Chap

Thanks Wallace now I have messed in my pants! <_< Beautiful work BTW. What type of heat treatment did you have them do? Chap Chap

1. Get some gaffa tape and tape the sealed bag to top of your head. 2. Find SWMBO and place rolling pin in her dextrous hand 3. Say "You are so fat and lazy that you even download cheats for your wii Fit" Let the crushing begin. Now you may need to have a few more one liners up your sleeve if...
