G' G'day rude, I purchased mine from here when I bought my ro unit, it measures the in and the out https://www.psifilters.com.au $28 ea. click on Chloromine systems and its in the extras, I got the $280 ro model, a bit $ but, I figured it was only the cost of three water tests. Give Tony a...

G’day Edd, ‘Better Beer’ on that we totally agree, the only reason Triumph Brewing Exists…. the taste(s) you described I had too. Mark, Thanks for that explanation, I dont really understand it but; you can take 3 fairly nasty chemicals and end up with just salty water? Tackling ‘water’ was one...

It is in parts of WA! I dont get this, put something else in (water) to take something out, change it yes but not remove, it has to be still in there in some form or another?

The 'Man' has spoken, thank you Martin; the best bit of electronic kit I got was a simple tds inline meter you will see how well your filtering water....

Thx Leyther I get what your saying, hallertau would be nice, Bia Hoi to me is a rice beer for layering lots of different flavours its good with POR and Nelson + a summer beer with my own hops : I dont know how to use Amarillo thats for sure.....

My last brew was an Australian Street Lager (Bia Hoi) to which I added Amarillo 30g at 60m 30@20 and 30@5, no chill, the Amarillo did have a high AA; the ‘beer’ turned out great but the taste from the hops was like drinking lemons! It settled down a bit and was great with chillies… Could some...

Welcome to the slippery slope of brewing beer, irrespective of your current preferred brewing method my advice is to remember brewing process is as important as ‘recipe’ when chasing ‘clone flavours’ sanitation, yeast, yeast health and temperatures all play an important role in your finished...

My initial answer to that is how does your beer taste and have you checked your filters I haven't had a look at mine yet but the (low) volume I'm putting through I'm expecting them to last a *t lot longer than 1 year (they have), I'd give Peter a ring at psi and chat him about it, did your ppm...

I have found the service to be very quick 5 days per/syd I don't bother with ice I don't send in jan/feb and Its a given that the receiver pays the return $20 edit : great little esky...

Hi Stefan, ROs’, where to start? To answer your question first, not exactly but there are issues with cheap Chinese membranes and what they wont stop and how low they can get the ppm. you want your RO to be 1 or 2 ppm max, not 10 or 20 and you want it to stop the ammonia part of any chloramine...

Hello Drewgong I had your dilemma, Australian shipping costs are outrageous. Here is my solution: I got a ‘fishing quality’ esky from BCF it is 385w 240d 300h. It holds eight 750ml plastic bottles and full it qualifies for both weight and cubic weight to be shipped anywhere in Australia by...

Thats quite a bit different to the last one I got, see attached, but I'm assured by people who know our (Mandurah) water is chemically all over the place like a mad woman *ing.. I've been talking to a few plumbers as we've been thro' 3 very expensive water systems in the last 15 years...

Hello Tangle Foot Good question, a lot of stuff is talked about on here (correctly so) that you don't need to worry about until your brewing is post year 5+. All the above is correct, I would concentrate on your Ph and just tackle that to ensure your in the correct Ph range during your mash...

Thx Coxy, so inversely I can weigh my keg prior to C02, carbonate (non Ross) weigh it again after a three weeks and that will tell me the exact vol of C02 that I like?

Hi Stefan I tried for years to get a meaning-full water report out of wawa; they will give you the mins and max and state its within spec. The specific problem in Mandurah is the waters a ‘shandy’ of de-sal bore and dam so its a constant moving target to try and define what the chemical...

BB Ale Malt is an excellent malt for making English bitters milds and the like + add a bit of invert sugar #?, these beers don't want or need a big flavour malt, I’m not a fan of MO.

Hi cap, I got this as an entry level 'quality' ph meter, it does a great job and is very accurate https://www.milwaukeemeters.com.au/ph-meter-and-orp-meter/low-cost-portable-ph-meter-1435106142.html but in hindsight all I needed was this https://sites.google.com/site/brunwater/ and its free...

My recipe/notes said, Brew #1 beautiful needs to be a bit darker, I used 2kg wey pale barley brown sugar and 1/2 kg of invert#3? my abv was 5.2. The second brew i subbed to 1kg dark invert, both had 7g fuggles per, abv was 5.8 my fg hit 1008 and 1004 respectively with Notto, you could jump in...

This is a v good recipe from BP, long boil, don't get the invert sugar too hot if your making your own or you’ll get caramel. I use Nottingham and over pitch by 100% Mild is the cheapest beer on the bar, I think I put 1kg of invert in mine you couldn't taste it the abv was over 4

Hi weal I think you just showed why we should all have a beer engine; they are truly magic with certain beers used right, they bring a rich creamy texture… I don’t, too hot here. I have never made a good mild below 4%abv, 5% is good for a mid and the Porters are 9%+. I will look through my...
