    The Keezer Build

    I've got the same setup for my taps, got covered in beer a few times before I got the JG fittings properly seated and sealed. Push them till they're all the way in, then push them in some more as they're probably not all the way in!

    Back from a week holiday down in Sydney - Enjoyed the Horse's Head from The Grifter and Former Tenant from Modus Operandi so thought it was time to brew another Amber/American Red - Grain locked in, hops subject to change once I look in the freezer. Also still tossing up whether to mash at 67 or...

    Whats In The Glass

    Cascade, galaxy & summit IPA - is good drinking now that the 150gm keg hop has settled down! Goes down a bit too easy.

    Hop Dealz Australia

    Still don't really dig this one to be honest, is drinkable but never want more than 2 schooners. HOWEVER I've been mixing it on a glass by glass basis anywhere from 25/75 to 50/50 with an IPA I recently made and it is BLOODY DELICIOUS. So I'll put Barbe Rouge down as a (for my tastes) crap...

    What are you Brewing 2016?

    Brew night tonight - haven't brewed an IPA in ages. A small bittering charge at 60 and the rest in the cube, not 100% sure if i'll go with the hop ratios below, was tempted to add comet to the mix, but may save it for a single hop - Will pitch on to us-05 yeast cake. Expected OG: 1.063 FG...

    POLL: Do you keg?

    I make 22L batches and I keg. Each batch I'll generally get a 19L keg and 2 3/4 filled 1.25l bottles which I quick carb for instant gratification, the keg just slow carbs at serving pressure. Have got rid of all my glass bottles, just buy a few plastic longies if I need to share with friends or...

    Hop Dealz Australia

    The Barbe Rouge was a 70gm cube hop in a pale ale, I think the grist was 5kg bb ale, 200gm acidulated, 200gm med crystal, 100gm dark crystal. Might work better with an ale and Munich grist with no crystal. The TDB was cube hop in equal parts with cascade + a TDB dry hop.

    Hop Dealz Australia

    Made a fairly simple pale ale with the Barbe Rouge - **** me, it is bloody sweet, tastes like lollies almost. Might be a tough keg to get through. If I let it warm up and think of it as a best bitter it makes a bit more sense. Strange hop. Made another pale with the TDB and some cascade and it...

    What did you buy while pissed last night?

    I prefer the red Personna blades over the Feathers. I've got about 20 packets of them and about 10 of the Polsilver Super Iridium - Gathering dust now as I haven't shaved for about 18 months. But DE safety razors are the only was to shave, I've got a Merkur 1904 and love it.
