Yes. We want to know the total mash water required + sparge water. My mate seems to think its 55L mash water + 1L per kg of grain for the sparge. I am assuming it's the full malt pipe. We're going to brew an NEIPA with roughly 11-12kg of malt.

OK I'm brewing on a BM 50L this weekend, with a mate. a few questions: where do we find the water calculators? Searched everywhere. And anyone using beersmith have comments on the braumeister profile?

For what it's worth, I bought one Panasonic battery from teds cameras for $12.99 and then I got two O-Light batteries on eBay for $4 each with free delivery. They seem fine.

I actually read up on that yesterday - very interesting.

My battery died 2 days into the 2nd batch... I've now got 3 spares on hand.

Can I please be added to this PM? I have a 5L keg tank (no ball lock head - got stolen). I drank 19L of a very nice pale ale that was legged at the same time as my 5L with the same processes. Ended up tipping the 5L keg after one pot - disgusting taste and colour had changed. It all makes sense...

Can't remember exactly and I don't have beersmith on this computer, but all of my hops were late additions. I think my first addition was at 5min (may have done a 20min addition but can't remember) and then the rest at flameout for a 30min hopstand above 85 degrees and then a 40min hopstand at...

Did you not shake it all up to aerate the wort?

I just brewed my version of a session IPA (was aiming for 3.5% but it finished at 4.2%). I used Maris Otter, Wheat and 10% medium crystal. I actually contacted bridge road because I love their little bling and this was their suggestion. Also, mash a little higher (I mashed at 68). I went for 35...

Are you putting them up tomorrow or you're splitting tomorrow? Would like some Columbus and potentially Amarillo.

Looks normal to me - I often have more than that and never had anything adverse from it. Won't be an issue to wash that yeast.

The problem is the excise is payable upon packaging the product, prior to even a single bottle being sold - so it's super hard for startups to get off the ground with these huge up-front outlays.

How'd it turn out? One of my favourite beers.

If this is because of if the bar, maybe you could sell the hops out of the bar and ditch the whole website/shipping concept [emoji57]

Is everything that's listed all you've got? I'd take some galaxy off your hands if you have any around. Probably a kilo or 2 if you have current season (or 2016).

Put my fortnight brew down yesterday. 95% MO 3% acidulated 2% medium crystal 20g @ 5 50g @ 0 for 30min hopstand above 85 degrees 30g @ 75 degrees for 30min hopstand 50g dry hop at day 4 or 1.020 50g dry hop for 5 days at diacetyl rest temp 2 packs US-05 OG 1.050, hoping for FG 1.010 and...

The Wortering Hole

Had a few decent beers here in NZ. I'm not convinced some of the supermarkets are handling the beers very well - Had a few which seemed to have suffered from storage issues. Tried to get some pernicious weed today but they were all out - got this instead. A decent beer!

Might not be a bad idea... Probably going to replace it with a 9.5L ball lock keg when my insurance comes through anyway.

I didn't see this thread and all of the issues before now, but I have a 5L mini keg that never worked from the start and I just decided they were no good and stopped using it. I went through about 5 bulbs without a single pour (yes, I checked for leaks in every possible way). Then I got broken...
