1 50 15 - Heat up to 50C, and over the next 15' 2 50 1 - stay at 50C. Now go to next step. 3 66 0 - Heat up to 66C and then hold that temp indefinitely. (If that's what you want, as the "0" means "hold") 4 75 0 - When commanded to "resume" (press and hold the down arrow for...

And I think the brilliant Michael Leunig summed it up here:

TV carries more weight than life...

I think you need to add the intervening steps: 1 50 15 2 50 1 3 66 60 4 66 1 5 78 0 This is directing it to heat to 50, then over 15 minutes, raise the temp to the next line (which is also 50 - starting point, therefore, hold this temp for 15 minutes). In other...

Welcome to our band of knowledgeable/experienced/half-arsed/dim-witted/ignorant/helpful/practical/generous/tight-arsed HB'ers - take your pick - we're all here - a goodly cross-sample, reflecting the world at large :P . But above all, very helpful! :)

From the diagram on the unit, it looks like the COOL switch is rated at 16A, and the HEAT rated at 10A. How strange!

Got a set of these at BeerMat's tasting session at the Hampton festival last weekend: Great session, and top presenter - thanks Mat.

I'd persist with it. If the ramp-up time was slow enough, there may well have been an adequate conversion as it heated up. One online report says: "Mashing for a full 60 minutes doesn’t hurt anything, but you might not be accomplishing anything — especially in a high-temperature mash — after 20...

Some would say they don't even try to recycle it...

When you think about it, the planet's not making any more water. What we have is it! So really, every drop of water which falls on your roof is re-cycled. UGH - and I make my beer with that... And given that the planet's water is geologically pretty old, why does bottled water from a...

Re stirring the malt powder in the FV to dissolve the lumps: When I was K&K'ing, I did just this, then poured in the can of goop and stirred some more. After a few brews, I noticed I'd really scored/scratched the bottom of the FV, (which was the current Cooper's type - you know, the one with...

"Gidday mate'n'owyagoin - orright?" :) Another warm welcome to you! I went straight from Kit'n'kilo to 3V All-grain, so can't help with BIAB, but yes, BIAB is pretty popular in Oz, so there's lots of info here. Cheers

Apparently, one in five people in the world are Chinese. And there are five people in my family, so it must be one of them. It's either my mum or my dad, or maybe my older brother Colin, or maybe my younger brother Ho-Ching Wah. But I'm pretty sure it's Colin.

Latest I've heard is that the Festival itself (May 21st) will have a selection of kegged beers from two or three vendors (pale ales, smoked ales, blueberry ale), also bottled brews from Coopers and Monteiths. No XXXX I'm afraid...

Hi Daniel, and welcome to AHB :beerbang: . Finding time for brewing is one of life's little challenges I reckon. Heck, I'm retired, but with all the other things to do on a farm, it's tough even for me to make time, even without "work" interrupting all the time! (Olive trees are VERY demanding...

Re "the bar" -- the Hampton Festival organisers tell me that the New England Brewing Company from Uralla will have their beers for sale on the drinks menu at the bar (where you'll find me -- maybe not ALL day, but certainly from time to time -- just checking that they're keeping the beer cold of...

Seems to me he's playing in a great big video arcade world where reality is just an abstract thought, and if he goes too far, well, he can just hit the "rewind" button, and go back to before the big mistake. Just one big game really....

Ah yes - 'On The Beach'. For those too young to remember, actress Ava Gardner famously described Melbourne as "the perfect place to make a film about the end of the world." In 1959, Gardner, Gregory Peck, Fred Astaire and Anthony Perkins did just that; they starred in the post-apocalyptic...
