Since this question comes up regularly, I thought I'd start an ongoing thread to show off your beer consuming areas. This is mine. The bar I picked up next door to my father in law. It was quite rough when I got it, and needed a HEAP of sanding. Stained it with some cabbotts jarrah stain and...

Its one of those things. Horses for courses. I went gas as it was the only way i could go double batch as i rent which basically means no dedicated circuits will be going in. If i was to start out again id find it very hard to go past a concealed element urn, bag and temp controller for some...

How to stop any infection. Well its a no brainer. Put some serious effort into cleaning and sanitising ALL of your gear properly. Ive been brewing for over 8 years now and not had an infection once

The 100L pot is still listed on the CB website, id say they have just run out of stock for now. Ive got one of those, and glad i went the 100L over the 80. Plenty of head room for boiling and can do full volume double biab in it. Great pots for the price, highly recommend Edit, sorry half...

I am definitely buying one of these when my keg fridge dies. Looks like a schmick bit of kit

Holy crap you are obviously not using biab

I pitch 2x packets directly in per 23 L. Always get a very nice clean crisp lager using this method

Jesus great buy!

Hey all, After brewing at a local craft brewery over the weekend, and increasingly becoming disappointed with the repeatability of my ipas and pales, i think it's time i reserved my no chill cubes for regular house brews, and just focus on knocking out single batch ipas and pales and start...

Kicking myself for not going the micromatic. Might be my next purchase. This thing isn't going to last long before i throw it at the wall. I would advise anyone not to buy one of these they are the worst

This thing is the biggest piece of **** I've bought in a long time. I mean, this thing is even more useless than the $40 chinese ebay special i was running. Brand new and won't hold a stable pressure let alone display the right reading. Had a kk mk2 reg before this one and it was half the price...

The only thing i can think of, is alot of scotch distilleries use a percentage of malt that has been smoked in peat moss. Perhaps fermenting on the grain helps further extract certain flavour compounds that are not accessible when the wort is pumped off the grains to the fermenter

That's why I've got 2 sodastream bottles sitting next to the keg fridge, in case my 2.6kg runs out

Google nickjd all grain 30 bucks. I would read this and maybe have a crack at that to see if its for you before taking the plunge. Personally i would not bother doing partials. I did maybe two then realised moving to all grain was what i was after

Not always. There are 3 types of stainless, austenetic, ferritic and martensitic stainless, this is where your grades come into it. The composition of the stainless alloy determines the mechanical properties of the metal. Austenitic is what you are after if you want top corrosion resistance...

Ahh the joys of top quality Chinese stainless Ive got a bigw stock pot here and a smaller one i got from Coles both have some pitting in the bottom.

Some aren't able to drink all that much due to work commitments. Due to my roster I'm pretty much limited to pouring a few beers on days off only (thanks 0 tolerance drug and alcohol testing). Nothing for a keg to last me a month sometimes more
