    How to dispose of spent grains?

    Dog biscuits..... affectionately known as poo biscuits. Lotsa good fibre and makes " clean up" a whole lot nicer. Treat biscuit not food. Couple of US websites with heaps of recipes. Dog and human, going to have a crack at a few others.

    BIAB CHINOOK IPA

    Think you have a good handle on it, not used the 1:1 method, plenty of good rules of thumb, often which disagree! Definition of "big".....Comes down to your "hop budget", I'd agree with hopping late 100%, but you need a butt load more hops to achieve the same IBU. I'm planing a Smash this...

    BIAB CHINOOK IPA

    Chinook is my go to favourite hop, in fact someone did a "desert island" single hop thread i.e. what would you take ...... chinook's my pick. Depending how much you have, I'd chuck some in to "mostly bitter" at 60 and then as much as you dare late in the piece. 10,5 or at flame out or all of...

    Got myself a Mill

    NOOOO ..... don't do it ... that place will cost you a fortune ...... $2 at a time! Actually TRQ keep your eye out for the $2.50 large plastic scoops. They're great for grain, and bags of fertiliser...... they migrate, i have to keep buying more

    Olive oil drum blow off

    Good call Bribie, drilling thin stainless is hairy. Mr B, I've got a chassis punch i used for adding stick elements to a stainless kettle. You drill a small hole, insert the punch and then use a spanner, really clean cut and I'd then use a silicone bung with a hole in it. Much easier to clean...

    Multiple fermentations in a single fridge

    And if you don't have a 2nd brew you have a nice temp controlled space to be building your 2 litre starter at the right temp. Or cool down the cube to the right temp ..... bloody weather ... 25C ... :cheers:

    Hallertau Mittelfruh @ 2.6% AA?

    Just have a crack, personally i reckon using amber with low bitterness is a risk, I'd use more of the HM in the boil. Or rather than dry hop with it, chuck it in at the end of the "boil" for a 10 minutes, you will avoid any risk of grassiness from dry hop and extract a tiny bit more IBUs. I'd...

    Where to get bulk grains?

    Oh and keep your eye out for Systema plastic-ware on sale in WW and Coles every couple of months at half price. The larger containers are a cracka for a couple of kgs of spec malts at a time. Slowly replaced all my old glass jars and other various plastic containers ..... half the space and a...

    Where to get bulk grains?

    Hmmm, seems like the coast "cracker's" club is expanding. Might be worth thinking about splitting bags of spec malts?? I bought a bag each of Pils and Pale off Mark at Ultimate (got a haircut too! picked up at Kincumber), price was more than the cheapest online but same really once fuel or...

    Hallertau Mittelfruh @ 2.6% AA?

    Ditto, type "home brew recipe builder" into google ..... go nuts there are plenty or just head over to www.beersmith.com Lagers 1. Get your temp under control, i.e. dialled into you sweet spot (fermentation fridge or really cold spot in your garage) 2. You need two packs of dried yeast for...

    NSW Mid Year Case Swap 2017 Recipe + Tasting

    14. Fly blown...... Jazza you got it in one. Needs a quiet rest then it springs into action. Poured fizzy but no head. Then it magically built up over 5 minutes. Very damn clear! Nice hints of banana and almost a hint of chili and berry flavoured bubblegum? One to sip and savour. Needs thinking...

    Dry hop timing conundrum.

    Probably fine either way but personally, I'd let it brew out and then dry hop, Simcoe and Amarillo seem to spread their goodness pretty quickly, measure it out and have in an airtight bag for when you land. 3 days later ....keg. Something to look forward to doing when you get home!
