Fermenter on top of fermentation keezer, keg underneath , I use a 13 mm clear line from hardware store sanitised with starsan, you need it long enough to reach over top of fermenter and down to bottom, with other end to bottom of keg. Start siphon with end just below surface of fermenter beer...

I haven't looked back since moving into pressurised ferment . The natural carbonation just makes my beers taste that little bit nicer etc

Niceee, I've ordered just over a kg, can't wait to taste the goodness from the earth lol. Cheers

Watching with interest....

Ok, my first Saison has turned out nice... Final grav with this yeast was 1002 from 1052 start. 6.6% Kegged after 1 week cc, carbed up at 40 psi for 36 hrs, I wanted it real carbed and served at -1 . Nice and dry, crisp, slight peppery finish, with a nice subdued funk to it. Pitched at 22 and...

Looking more like a gf copy now. Malt pipe remove and position looks the same etc. Good luck with them, I'm sure they will brew good beer

I tasted a hydro sample of a 150 lashes type beer 2 days ago that read 1012 at 7 days in using us05 at 19 , it had a little similar taste, did stand out to me, I ramped up to 21 to finish off which I normally do, and tonight at day 9 it's at 1010 and tastes clean as, standard mangrove jacks...

I'm trying a little creatures pale ale clone that I love, normally done with us05, had none yesterday but wanted to pitch a cube, so used 005 English ale, will be keen to see if it makes a slightly more malty beer. Cheers

It's pitched, I'll report back when ready..

Happy Australia Day guys.. I'm having a few lagers today, I brewed up a few weeks ago a cube of Little creatures type pale ale clone. It's been done before here and turned out good with US o5. Having day off thinking of pitching it with 005 English ale as it's all I got in my fridge except for...

I mashed mine at 64, used alittle accidualted malt and O2 . It's a monster yeast that's for sure... Hydro tastings were promising. Rye, addition sounds nice. I do like rye and have a sack. Care to share the receipe ?

Not sure yet, mines ccing ATM, will be my first saison ,and will be into keg next week. Mine started at 1052, I fired this yeast up in a 1.5 ltr starter for 24 hrs first, pitched at 22 and let rise over first 24 hrs to 26. 4 days and was down to 1002. Wish I had access to some wyeast type...

Hey mate, So is the thickness still the same ? 7mm

Ok, I've contacted the 2 suppliers, the one advertising the 11 mm thickness said they have the 7mm one in now and so will be updating their website. The other said its 7mm and they have been getting them in from gf company of that size. So it appears that they possibly used to have 11 mm...

Looks like there could be an older and newer model coat out there. I'll call both suppliers tomm, one has it advertised with 7mm thickness and another supplier has it advertised as 11mm. I'll report back my findings

Good pricing of the perlick 650ss, I just payed 95 from ibrew for 4 which I thought was good. Not bb pricing. Great tap.

Are they Velcro ? Or do they slip over Is the quality worth it as well?

Tks for the tip, might have saved me a lot of cleaning and lack of boil. Cheers

As the title says, Anyone use one? What do you think of it, quality? Does it help with boil etc? Are they easy to put on and remove for cleaning etc? I was thinking of getting one for winter use especially. Cheers
