Are you not on municipal water? Seems like a lot of fussing around considering Melbourne has great water for brewing once you get the chlorine out.

Have you found the leak? If not you're just speculating and going to make yourself more upset if it happens again. Same cylinder or exchanged for a different one each time? Maybe it's the cylinder and not the connections after all. If you are set on changing your lines and connections, I've...

I got mine sorted by pausing and rewinding the video from Keg King's YouTube channel.

Been thinking of getting a CFC or PC myself. What's the initial temperature drop like? I use a PET fermenter so I was thinking I would have to recirc back into the kettle for a bit before going into the fermenter.

Looking to get things back on track...anyone pick up the standing false bottom yet?

Thanks mate. I am well aware that the Guten is not a fermenter. I was hoping others might see that as well. Looks like only CaptainMochSnot got the message.

Where does the PRV go in the Guten?

If you're after simple try adding sugar to your glass. People do this every morning with their coffee or tea. Would want to be careful no to stir too much and lose all your carbonation.

Is your 60 litre batch into the fermenter or out of the fermenter? This is important to sort out as there will be losses in the fermenter to consider as well as dead space from the kettle. Propane or natural gas will depend on what you have available. Some have the ability to tap into their...

Originally I suspected diacetyl as the issue and reading back through again I think that is more likely the case than a mash regimen. I dismissed diacetyl because it looked like he did a d-rest when he provided his ferment schedule, but seven days total with a slow rise to 22 and the high FG has...

Do you have a fermentation schedule you can post too?

Jockey boxes are best for short term use like a long weekend. Anything more than that and you will want to store your beer cold. There really is not much to building a kegerator. First find a fridge big enough to fit your keg. If going to also store your CO2 cylinder in the fridge then make...

Google some shops around where you will be moving too. Ask them if they will fill with the adapter or can fill your type 30 cylinder. If they can't/won't then sell before you leave and buy new/used when you get there.

Notty, S-04, or US-05 will all produce good results. If you don't have temp control it's getting warm enough you could use kveik as well.

A couple of things to note straight away. The LME is already sterile so no need to boil it. The DME and sugar should absolutely be boiled to sterilize. 10 minutes is more than sufficient. Also agree the OG is high. Maybe run your recipe through an online calculator (Brewer's Friend or...

Have you thought about contacting Blichmann for a recommendation?

Mine came in a box. Sleeve sorted. You're welcome.

I would preboil the top up water and add to the cube first. It effectively sanitises the cube before you've added your wort. Better to leave the cube sealed once you have added any wort.

Been a while since I checked my settings but I'm pretty sure mine is set at 1200 or 1500. I do heat my strike water at max though. I tried as high as 1800 for the maah and thought that was a bit much. Interested to hear what others are doing.
