    Yellow and Black

    Good win by the Tigers. They played the near perfect game. Adelaide could barely get clean possession because of Richmond's pressure.

    Three vessel v Braumiester

    Here's a previous discussion about the same thing. Never brewed on a 3v so have zero experience with a SABCO, but had a 50l Brau for a while now. A few points about a 50l Braumeister. Single vessel = smaller footprint requires 15amp power connection. (probably a drawback if you need to get...

    Thanks for the mammaries.

    Off taste/smell from beer lines

    I suspect that it's the type of beer line and as mentioned, changing one to something else would soon let you know. Keg King sell a few beer lines that are listed as 'food grade vinyl'. I'm not sure if that's what you're using, or if it's the problem, but I'd suggest to check some of the site...

    Why do you chill.

    Helps clear the beer. Yeast and other particles drop out of suspension quicker, leaving them behind when you bottle/keg. Still plenty of yeast in the beer to carbonate.

    Is this cube swollen?

    One of the reasons for me not having a tap on my cubes, (other than the potential for infection) is for when the hot wort has been transferred, the risk of knocking the tap and having it dislodge and having near boiling hot liquid gushing out, isn't one that I'm prepared to take. Another is...

    Is this cube swollen?

    I'd be inclined to store cubes without the tap on, that's asking for trouble imo. Cube looks fine to me.

    Blowoff Suck Back

    Cleaning it shouldn't be a problem since it's only being used once the vigorous fermentation has subsided and it's just capturing the co2. Another option would be to fill it with co2 from your bottle and only attach it to your fermenter when you're ready to chill. I've ordered a couple, keen to...

    Blowoff Suck Back

    I reckon something like this would be ideal. Available in different sizes up to 3 litres. Pretty much plug and play. Nice little screw cap to purge/vent if need be. Plenty of different types here.

    Lauter Helix.

    I tilted my BM forward to catch every last drop.

    Lauter Helix.

    Ha, yeah, oops, typo. Auto correct didn't pick it up, so maybe it's a thing.

    Lauter Helix.

    I always aim to get 48 litres and often fall just shy of that and with this I got 47, so for me there was not much difference in the end vol. The main advantage is throwing the hops directly into the boil, rather than use a hop sock/filter, to get the full goodness of the hops. With this idea...

    Lauter Helix.

    Yeah, when I first looked at it, I was thinking that because the fittings are so snug, it would be a one piece thing which would need to slip over the coils. But when I spent a little more time on it I was soon able to get them off and make it slip around the coils and then re-connect. I was...

    Continuing Rant Thread - Get it Off Ya Chest here

    There are other alternatives to ebay. My wife has been offloading heaps of things that we no longer need, posting them for sale on a couple of local (Sunshine Coast) Facebook buy and sell pages. Admittedly the market is much smaller, but nearly everything she's posted has been sold. There might...

    Lauter Helix.

    Did a brew today with mine and I can't believe how freaking awesome it is. In fact, everyone should get one, they're that good. Initially I thought that it would be too tight to get the Lauter Helix between the outer heating coil and the side of the Brau. This concern was completely...

    If only comedy was still made like this. Everyone gets to offend everyone. And it's about as funny as it gets.

    Aldi specials

    The smaller ones look like they'd stack ok too. Hmmmm decisions.

    Aldi specials

    They'd be fine, some of those taller juice ones might find their way back to my place.
