Condell Park produce have 200l blue drums for $17..... They don't get much bigger or cheaper :ph34r:

19l - same as a cornie except they have an A type coupler fitting. that comes off easily with a grinder :D I'll be in Sydney next weekend if you wanted to drop over. here is what I made - but have an idea on how to not need the poly pipe base that I needed to protect the electrical wiring...

Hi Pete, I thought using boadicea caused revolt or legends to be created........ maybe neither in this case B) HAHA (refer to http://fanzone50.com/Tales/Boadicea1.html) Beers

just remembered I can help you with elements too ;-)

Hi Jon, I've recently made a herms out of a found asahi keg. mounted uxcell elements in the bottom after grinding the top out. I already had a coil so it was only a days work - if that. Auber pid's rtds & SSRs are pretty cheap as are tackle boxes to mount em... you already have the pump - just...

Hi Mark, minor correction: the Show is actually held in March, however the beer comp portion is run in september to keep out of the way of the judging of other sections as well as fall into the brew comp season. I know Stu offered to host the states in conjunction with the Castlehill comp this...

cut your own from some silicone bake wear. you can pick em up in target / kmart / bigw. too easy :icon_chickcheers:

problem is i can't find a 6kw element in 1" bps :( have been looking & ringing...

yeah i was wondering if it could be mounted into a 3" triclamp ferrule & rig up something like Punkin's element guard.... Thanks Wort, but want a more permanent / safe solution.

anyone?????

woww - buy 3 cronies & get a free 18 gallon! top score for someone.

interesting experiment tony. I can't offer any advice, but can say Stu & I made a ripper stout a few years back, half of it we fortified with some vodka that i'd soaked in JD barrel chips for a month. Turned out great - had a bit of kick as well as the oak;-)

sorry bribe - only just saw the thread. As barls said, I too grew up in Taree. Whilst it was a great place to grow up in 25+ years ago, it has changed a lot since. It is now a low socio-economic demographic - a real poverty town IMHO. I say that as there are no major industries (fishing, timber...

anyone got any ideas on how to mount one of these? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/3U-Style-220-38...9#ht_1434wt_922 triclamp? if i can work it out it'll be the cheapest 6kw element option around. thanks croz

try chi company in the us or craft brewer

not for the order. i did when i told him about a problem with his site

I've bought some replacement bungs from them. they were delivered in about a week.

I do exactly that. :beer: means you can try different brew/yeast combinations by pitching onto the years cake when primary is done - or use a smaller beer to grow yeast numbers for a big beer. enjoy your new kettle.

guess it depends on where you are at, what you want to achieve & importantly what you can afford.... I have a keg fridge etc & love it but am currently working away from home.. can't bring my brewery & cornies won't fit in the fridge where i'm staying (don't even mention drilling holes for a tap...

buy bit burger kegs from dan's - drink em dry for the container. Buy replacement bumps from minikeg.net.au modify the bungs - a schrader valve for the top & a bike tyre inflator for c02 (can upgrade to soda stream / paintball/ normal keg co2 later if you want). This guy used a presta valve...
