FWIW my last few hefes have been great. But the efficiency is always crap. Gonna have to try the acidilated next.

Why are there no hand pumps in nsw? Dammit! Good luck with the sale. Moving out of Mexico?

Easy fixed though...new scratchplate and some good pickups. My strat has the Suhr silent backplate system and suhr low output pickups and it is a thing of beauty. Highly recommended. Back on topic.....I bought a new tap and a thermometer last night. Oops.

Cool. Im just wiring in some duncan 59's......but I think Ill end up with some brierlys.

OT but what were they?

Finally have a better job so the credit card aint maxxed anymore. This week I bought a new set of surfboard fins and also a kickarse overdrive pedal. I need a breathalyzer connected to my eBay app. Actually Ive had a few beers and what I REALLY ****** need is a beer engine too!

30 bucks for a stainless perlick? I know a lhbs near you has had an abs plastic forward sealing tap hanging around for a while. That might be what you are thinking of. The OP is offering a good deal. Id be tempted but I just bought another keg and the wife is suspicious when parcels arrive...

Ok. Last time i tried a low temp rest with a weizen I made some crap that caked the element in my urn. It was .5cm thick and black and the burnt taste ruined the beer. I now only mash in at higher temps. Any solition?

Ive got two thermometers, if one reads 66, the other reads 69. I split the diff and aim for the middle. This way at least I get repeatable results. So check your temp. If im trying for a dry lager or ale i will mash anywhere from 62 - 64. Agree with the others re yeast and grainbill too. Try...

Agree on the fantasticness! Much better than the grapefruitjuice one they did a few months ago.

Im so brewing this! A good fresh belgiun wheat is almost as good as a fresh good Bavarian wheat!

Anyone got one they want to dispose of? Standard size shank fitting would be easier, but Im not totally against the idea of drilling another hole in the fridge. (More taps is better right?)

Good deal. Ill have dibs on 2 kegs and the reg if you start splitting up.

Got mine in an express post bag today! Fingers are crossed the good people at Australia Post do their thing.

That helps amazingly Barry. Cheers.

Blending and watering down are tricks ive used with success. Sometimes a touch of water opens up the flavours....paeticularly in big hoppy beers which have tasted a bit muddled.

Thanks for the service and chat today Nick! Ill bring you a bottle of the good stuff once my brews are done. And cheers for the shirt. The wife scoffed when i showed her my new beer nerd shirt...so I'm gonna wear it all weekend now!

Interesting idea..... but Starsan is pretty cheap compared to pbw. Surely for under 20bucks a year its not worth the risk?

Thanks guys. This wont be the exact same beer anyway.....I dont have the same hops on hand. The first stuff up is still a delicious brew thats the main thing, basically I subbed a malt for a different brand and the colour wasnt amber enough. Im not focussed on the winning the comp...this is...

Got some 007 for tomorrow. Will grab notto as a backup. Thanks for the help peeps.
