I don't think it really matters if the gas is cold or not, still does the same thing. Tidy looking setup bouncingcastle.

I didn't really think they would or thought they would be very cost effective........... I was going for more of the portability not cost........ Maybe a soda stream attachement would be better.

Has anyone seen these keg chargers before? (I hope the attaching works!!!!!) Doesn't look like a bad idea if you wanted to cart a carbonated keg without having to take a huge gas bottle!

Very nice. I think i'll put a bid in for that.

Thanks. I'll order some chinook and hersbrucker when they are in at Grumpys.

What time of the year are the rhizomes available to buy? they don't seem ot be available at all the places on the net i can find. I really want to grow some this year.

yeah that was my thought as well. I supose in that case i shouldn't have added the other yeast should i?! oh well i'll see how it turns out i guess..........

I'm with big d and Vlad. Time and coldness. But i do use much the same method as sosman alot successfully!

Pitched some more yeats in yesterday and about 20 hours later it is bubling away nicely. Thanks all for the help.

Yeah i know where it is, i live in Newcastle. Just thought i'd ask exactly where it is. Cheers

Ah ok. I was in there the other day and they said they didn't have any, i might get them to order one in. Where is "near newcastle" seth?

Does anyone know anywhere in the internet where you can get drip trays from? I need one for my fridge and after searching i can't seem to find one anywhere in australia.....

Got a new hydometer and the reading was 1020.... Have no idea what the OG was cause i couldn't find my hydrometer at the time.

i've checked the seal and it is air tight and the airlock is doing as it should when i press on the lid that would show it being air tight. There is a small amount of krausen but not nearly as much as my previous IPA's have had. I will get a new hydrometer and check and if so i'll rack and...

I thought squeezing the sides and air being pushed through the airlock would mena a sealed fermenter? But if not then i have learnt something. i asked at the HB shop if the yeast would be ok for it and they said it would be fine, i was a little uncertain at the time. I think i'll go see them...

yeah i have pushed the sides and the airlock moves and goes back to its original levels. I'll try thr safale tomorrow.

I would measure but i busted my hydrometer yesterday and i am yet to get another one. But surely airlock action in a air tight fermenter is enough to go of as far as fermenting is concerned?. i was thinking of going to safale tomorrow. If that does help then my lawn will have to drink it...

I put down a IPA can with 1.5kg of liquid malt, 25g of fuggles steeped in and the provoded ale yeast 2 days ago and i am yet to have any airlock action. It has stayed at a 22 -24 degree temp and the lid is on air tight. Do you guys think it is a goner? any ideas what i could try to kick it in...

I try to keep mine at about 3-4 degrees. I to have had the problem or freezing in the beer line and if i keep it aroung that temp i don't seem to have that problem.

How did you go with this? I've just put down a LC clone. I used a Thomas Coopers Heritage Lager with 30g of Cascade and 15g of Chinook and a kg of powdered malt. Hoping that should taste ok.
