Dad would be stoked. Can finally set him up with a fermentation fridge!

I can't remember each individual thing I bought but all up it was $40 from JayCar and the fan is overpowered. I wish I got a smaller fan and saved some $$$ but it definitely does the job. I basically got this fan: https://www.jaycar.com.au/90mm-12v-dc-2-wire-fan/p/YX2521 (maybe I got 120mm I...

Not the same as all. Check here for a simple overview and understanding: http://www.thehopandgrain.com.au/guide-sugars/

Mine is set to 15 min intervals however the WiFi power drops incredibly after about 3 or 4 days. From full charge for the first 3-4 days I can get a clear reading with the garage completely closed off. 3-6 days I need the garage door open a touch, and then after that it needs to be completely open.

Yeh it weighed around 10.5kg last night. I'll weigh it tonight and see how it's looking and if it's more than 10kg, happy days. Cheers

Just hooked up new reg to new full gas bottle, manifold and some tubes/gas connects. Everything worked well and fixed a leak (loose hex nut on the gas bottle). However after I connected one of my disconnects to my full kegs the High Pressure gauge dropped to ~250 and won't budge. I have tried...

Yeh mate, once fermentation is nearly complete just chuck them in. I personally use a hop sock/SS hop ball so I fish them back out after 3 or 4 days. If you're not cold crashing I would recommend the same. Hop Balls are only a couple of bucks each, reusable and easy to clean. No more than 20g of...

Add 500g LDM, 500g Dex Yeast that comes with it Dry Hop: 15g Ella 15g Citra 15g Galaxy Delicious Pacific Ale. I have personally done it with this exact same kit as well.

I believe Macros will only work in Microsoft Excel :(

Legend thanks! I thought they would, but everyone referring to them as "Fresh" threw me off :)

Hi @KegLand-com-au, I have one of your Fresh Wort Kits (Summer Ale) sitting in my cupboard ready to be brewed this weekend. However if I wanted to save it for a party in October and brew then would it hold fine? Or is it the earlier the better? Cheers,

I just kegged my first beer last night, but didn't have a regulator so haven't carbed yet. I transferred from the spigot on my fermenter down into the bottom of the keg through some tubing. There was no splashing, but I could hear glugging through the fermenter, and when my IPA reached the top...

This also allows the birds to spread the seeds around as they **** them out, whereas a mammal wouldn't. We just eat the fruit.

I'm a fairly new brewer but here is what I do: After active fermentation is complete (~ 5-7 days in) I spray my 2x hop socks, and 1x SS hop ball with sanitiser, then I add no more than 15-20g of hop pellets to each one. Tie them up as high as possible so that the hops can spread out and dont...

Awesome thanks heaps. There's so much information overload out there, it's always good to know where to start looking :)

My dad just have me some dried garden chilli seeds. What is the best way to start growing them, and when? Cheers.

Yeh it's so strange. This one was even one of the Mangrove Jacks M44 US West Coast yeasts completely temperature controlled @ 19*C, but still an incredibly long lag time. (Ignore the gravity values, it's not completely calibrated yet).

I always rehydrate my yeast before pitching, but I don't think I have had a lag time less than 48hrs, most taking 60hrs before the iSpindel starts showing any signs of activity. Am I rehydrating too warm possibly?

Hey mate, where abouts are you in Newcastle? I am happy to pick up a few. PM me :)

Try here mate. They have a PDF of everything: https://www.brewdog.com/lowdown/diydog
