Hey Welly, Sorry, really only wanting to do swaps within Sydney, not up for the postage cost. Thanks for the heads up though. Christopher

So I bought all my gear for my new keezer and managed to order the wrong sized kegs for it. The ones I have are approximately 58cm high and 23cm in diameter and have had the posts, lids and seals replaced but I'm really after the taller skinnier ones. Is anyone interested in swapping their...

No longer in the market (not sure there is one anyway :D) as I've ordered pretty much everything to lead me to keezer happiness.​

Looking into getting into kegging and thought I might see if anyone else is looking to get out (I know, wishful thinking right)? I'm looking for a 2 - 4 keg system, preferably a keezer as due to space limitations this will be sitting in my living room and I think a keezer has more opportunity...

Doesn't cost too much to get yourself setup with a fermentation fridge, got my setup for about a $120. $50 for a second hand fridge off of fleabay, $27 for an STC-1000 (temp control) and then the rest on wiring it up and housing the STC correctly. I'm pretty confident with working on the...

Thanks Rocker, that was my thought, possibly not dropping it down too low, probably around 10C and only doing it for a couple of days. The real concern is how much effort it took to get the beer up and running again after it stalled, I tried just raising the temp, gentle rousing, more gentle...

Hey, I've finally got my beer to ferment down to an expected FG of around 1012, I've been using Mangrove Jack M03 on a split batch and all three brews stopped about ten points high, anyway, I got them all going again after raising the temp and finally having to stir them with a sanitised spoon...

Also just want to say thanks for the swap, definitely plan on organising alternative methods for getting there and back next time though ...... :-)

Plus I liked the saisons we had a the ISB thing :D Happy to help pick up anyone else that can't make the date but is still interested.

I live just across the bridge, happy to pickup and drop off if you like, just let me know where and when.

So sad ..... thought it was Clontarf spitting distance Sydney :-( :-D. Would have even offered some cash on the exchange.

Isn't it 18 bottles in total as two folk have dropped out and you don't count your own beer?

Cool, thanks everyone, just got to make sure I am a little more prepared for the next swap :) Beer is now bottled, I tasted it and it seemed quite good for a first attempt ......

OK, seems my first case swap is turning into a bit of a balls up. Anywhoo, everyone OK with me having 700/750ml bottles? I haven't got enough of one size, most will be 750, bit ****, happy to drop out if this is going to cause an issue :/

Cool, now I just have to hope I have good lot of bottles, think they are either 660 or 700 or 750 or something ... :-/

Got to admit I was a bit pi$$ed when I signed up for this, about to bottle tonight so may not be ready to drink come swap day. Actually got to look for what bottles I have, will aim for 750 but may be a little on the short side :-/. Is this a show stopper? Also, added my name to the food list...

Hahaha, I'm sure we have all been "polite" enough to drink all our beer experiments!! ;-)

OK, sounds like I can carry on with my current approach and not worry so much about the cold crashing or adding extra yeast come bottling time :) I guess if this one turns out terribly I can always use it as a live and learn exercise for when I get round to make AG lager.

Hmmmm, seems I may have ballsed this one up. So my process so far has been: Pitch at 10C Ferment at 10C until about 3/4 through Raise temp by 2C a day until reaching 18C and DRest Wait for FG to be achieved Drop temp by 2C until it reaches 10C Drop temp by 1C until it reaches 5C Leave to lager...
