I got my book today, thanks Steve. Upon opening I was pleasantly surprised and breathed a sigh of relief when I saw on the cover the words 'Now including metric equations'. I was expecting to be doing a lot of US measure to metric conversions. TFFT.:phew: On a side note, the bloody postie...

Forgive my posting this in two threads, but as Adr_0 started this more relevant thread prior to our initial posts in the O2 thread. So because the sensory tests as to whether the beer would last for the long term, being my main focus, I did not complete the H2O2 experiment until a couple of...

So this will be my last post about the H2O2 experiment, as all the bottles are finished (after 8 months). All up, I found that about 6 of the H2O2 bottles showed similar signs to the early find I described above. Only one of the aerated bottles (from 25L) showed a similar flavour, which I put...

Hmm, I've had them in the fridge, but for a few months now, so will be wary and test small first. Thanks guys.

So, bringing this thread back as I plan to use some Hop Dealz Hopburst Shotz for the first time and want to know what peoples general experiences with additions are/were. I am wanting to add some Galaxy and Mosaic aroma to a mostly Cascade hopped APA I brewed on Sunday, which is fermenting away...

So this is what I put down on Sunday and it is fermenting away nicely at the moment. Question for those that have used the Hop Burst liquid stuff that Yob sold as Hop Dealz Aust. I'm going to put some Galaxy and Mosaic Hop Burst (shots) in to my kegs instead of dry hopping and want to know...

A dead fridge is also a good storage local and usually free. Mine came from a mates kegerator for which the compressor had died. Keeps rats/mice/bugs/moisture out and maintains a decent temp stability also (not necessary, but can't hurt). Make sure it is sealed up internally (I duct tape the...

Take Steve up on his offer. He's a respectable member of SABC and wouldn't sell you crap. Also that there is a bargain.

Toast with jam.:p Congrats on the 20,000th post. Was it memorable?:cool:

I got some zinc sulphate and made up a solution (see below) adding X mls depending on batch size. I add to the mash at 0.4ppm as some gets used up in the mash then there are some losses in the boil, so I hope that I get 0.1-0.15ppm into the fermentor. A little OT, but zinc was raised by the...

PM'd you. EDIT - I agree with pcmfisher re viewing second hand kegs. Be realistic though as you will likely have to change out all the seals from second hand ones bought from KK or Beerbelly, so added costs. I had too. Where as I would dare say that most of us home brewers (I say most!) have...

Order placed and PM sent re postage. Thanks Steve.

Yes upon "discovering" zinc for mash and boil additions, I too noticed mash efficiency (slight) and attenuation increases. Thanks MHB for pointing me in the right direction on that.

Hi mate, I have a friend that is not on AHB that is thinking of selling on his 3 x Pinlock kegs and disconnects (I think he has 2 of each). I'll check if he's still wants to and PM you what he wants for them.

This is a joke right? Everyone knows that gas from 2002 will turn your beer green and put hairs on your wife's chest. Don't do it..... 2003 would be fine, but 2002 was a bad year for CO2 :fallingoffchair: Seriously though unless you super heat your gas bottles (to the point they would...

Good work. I did something similar with a SS flexible hose connector, but this looks to be way more effective. At $13, well worth a try.

Ah, but the wife is in Marketing... I doubt very much he came up with the idea to go to the journos. Typical marketing strategy. First, put out a media release or talk to your buddies in the media, get a story out. Hope it gets traction and watch for money making opportunities. Such as...

$85 on his website. Given it's at cost, it could be a little more depending on currency rates

Yeah I had this same thing. First thing I tested my lines/kegs with was carbonated water. Keg king lines. Left them sit with water in for a night, flushed and taste went away after that from memory.

I'd like one thanks Steve. They come highly recommended.
