I use Boags and Cascade longnecks and they work fine and have done for about a year now. I just screw the old bottle caps back on as hard as I can with a tea towel. Works fine, never had a flat one.

I dunno, one of that sky crane helicopters would be pretty bad ass And you could use it to go to work! Park on the roof! No problems.

Or a jet pack.

You've got one of those too?! Woob woob woob woob woob

Yeah I just went in to buy some yeast... Came out with 2x 60L fermenters, 4 korni kegs, enough light, amber and wheat extract to sink a battleship, 500 kilos of various hops, 1kg of sod perc. All up ~$300 Sigh....

I use gravity to filter my beer too but I don't hoist it up 2M above the ground. The fermenter is on the table and the keg is on the ground, you just need to make sure the top of the filter is lower than the fermenter tap and the top of the keg is lower than the outlet on the filter. To...

What your HBS man tells you is true. It'll make your beer "Low carb" too if you care about that. I make a similar beer and it's pretty strong! I had double vision after a few jugs. In my latest one I put a 500g of "rice extract" in it and it was really tasty :)

how good is Marsala! I love it! Put it in everything that has wine in it!

I carb mine at 300kpa over night and pour at 60kpa

I had this problem once I just took the keg out of the fridge, released the pressure, gave it a shake, released the pressure, shake and release 3 more times and then hooked it up again and it was perfect. Prolly just a fluke but it worked well.

I make raspberry wheat beer so I don't really go for clarity but my apple & Raspberry cider is brilliantly clear and I just cold crashed it in the keg fridge for a couple of days.

can you post to Tas?

or if you've got a mate with a lathe, Metal or wood he might be able to hook you up with something. Some polished bits of brass would look trick, bit of a taper on them and maybe a ring or two at the top and they'd look really nice.

Yeah I just reused the old screw on tops. If your bottles explode then bad luck, mine didn't and I used 3 carb drops instead of 2 to get some extra fizz in my wheat beer. I also used Passion pop bottles too, because the mrs drinks those like they're going out of fashion, plus they've got a...

I've used wine bottles for beer when I started. The uncarbed types too, with a screw on lid, held pressure fine for 2 months then we drank it.

I had the same problem with the dry enzyme, bottles were way way way too fizzy. Kegs were OK though.

get your self a 2L growler of eBay, that's what I use for parties, it's amazing. When I pour into bottles I don't use a tube, I just turn the pouring speed right down and also make sure my bottle is cold and wet before I start pouring, this helps it not fizz up and keeps the CO2 in the beer.

I got a couple of aussie Pale cans free the other day because they were out of date (expired 2004) I brewed that up with some left over Dex I had ~300g along with 5g Nelson Hops dry hopped in there. It turned out fine.

it is a good giggle that once you get north of oatlands you can't get Cascades anymore. I'm neither here nor there, I'll drink what ever is on tap. But gun to my head I'd say I like Boags better. It's surprising how they can make such a nice beer in a **** hole of a city. Back on topic tho, I...

Have you not seen the video? It's a real state! A container full you say....
