Sizes are too allow postage in prepaid satchels 1kg & 5kg. I organised an SA bulk buy of sodium percarbonate and sodium metasilicate (the other main ingredient in PBW) late 2016. Perc was $38/25kg bag and the metasilicate $44/25kg. That said we did order 225kg. Neither chemical is restricted...

Bump. Still plenty left.

Cooler weather is perfect for long, slow sourdough ferments. This one had 2 x 12 hour rises.

A few of my favourites from back when I was a kit brewer. Brewed a wet hopped 2 can IPA recently (2 tins of Coopers Lager and 1kg of wet hops dumped in at flameout), has taken a while for it to balance itself but is drinking quite nicely at the moment. Not sure how accurate the specs are, a lot...

First application to send rhizomes to WA has been submitted. If this works out then I am happy to send more but would need a central person to take responsibility for receiving the rhizomes in WA and then getting them to your fellow brewers. I'm allowed to send as many shipments as I want as...

Plenty of both rhizomes left, I'll update in this thread when I run out.

Bump.

Proper lol! That was one crazy cat.

No, I have never grown Saaz before. I only have Chinook and Victoria.

@stockengineer I didn't attached the form, I just quoted was was emailed to me. If you want to go ahead on a purchase please send me a PM and I'll start the paperwork. Unfortunately for the Tasmanians, the effort involved in sending rhizomes to you is too much. It involves inspections in SA...

That was quick and not good great news but it is possible if you are willing to pay the fees. "You need to apply for an approval to import on the attached form for up to 20 rhizomes. The cost is $45 plus another inspection fee on arrival into WA of $63." So any sandgropers who want to buy...

Just an FYI. After years of saying I won't post to WA and Tassie I am at the least, chasing up what is required to do so. If it's not a complete pain the arse I will be willing to do so. Fingers crossed. If you are from WA or Tassie, feel free to PM me an expression of interest and I'll reserve...

Nothing has come through.

Bump and price drop to $10. Didn't do my research so didn't realise value has dropped compared to last year. My bad. I also have a few very large rhizomes available pickup only as I'm removing the Chinook completely to reclaim part of the garden so the mother plants need to go. Yet to be dug up.

For sale - Chinook and Victoria hop rhizomes. $10 each plus postage. Express postage $11 for 1-3 rhizomes, $15 for 4+ rhizomes. Please PM me with your order and I'll send you my bank details. I'll be posting on Mondays only to ensure they spent as little time in transit as possible. Pickup...

Balanced for you is not necessarily balanced for others. You acknowledge that in one sentence and then contradict yourself in the next. The Adelaide crew have a term for 'throwing in a bunch of hops that you have in the freezer', we call that 'Just ******* beer'. Stop overthinking it. Fresh...

Since when did we all have the same taste in hops or beer for that matter?

Victoria and Chinook hops are the 2 I've been using for years now. Used in a range of beers but my favourite was an imperial IPA where I used only homegrown hops, no bittering hops at all. Followed a Pliny type recipe which including a massive dry hop resulting in the loss of ~5L of beer but...

Sub the wheat for rye, it's how i brew this beer these days.

OG, mash temperature, batch volume, pitching rate, oxygen? Love the cask ale yeast, pne of my favourties. I have a simple bitter on tap now using this yeast and have the yeast cake ready for a big IPA to be barrel aged for several months. The bitter (OG 1.036, mash @ 66C) fermented out in 2...
