    Half Price Napisan (ww Select) 2kg $5.74 @ Woolies

    Mate, that is GREAT NEWS....glad this has worked for you. Here is another tip, did u just put the napisan inside the bottle? Why not get a bucket big enough to submurse the entire bottle in (or even a few bottles) then mix it up, submurse the bottles (get all the air out) and the bottle will get...

    Half Price Napisan (ww Select) 2kg $5.74 @ Woolies

    Ratio will depend on what it is ur trying to do. My ratio...is a scoop here and there and she'll be right :) WEll not really, but kinda. U can be a bit liberal with it and not cause any issue. With things like Bleach/Vinegar u need to be careful, 1) cause its makes dangerous fumes esp if u mix...

    Got Some New Fermenters, How Should I Clean Them?

    What a score!! Well done :) Mega jealous Sitting in the sun, especially the heat wave we have today (am in sydney's north too) will do it good. I'd follow up a few days in the sun with about a week with a strong napisan soak. If they were nasty then I'd hit it with bleach/water/vinegar...

    Cleaning Fermenter Taps

    IMHO guys... U should either be 1) cleaning your taps OR 2) buying new ones frequently What I believe you shouldnt be doing is not cleaning your taps or not replacing them. U wont believe the gunk that builds up in them until you open it up and see for yourself Rendo

    Sanitation, Yeast, Bulk Priming And A Stupid Question

    Hey YUM & all... Ur right, it does foam up, but a good and simple way to get around the foaming up is to..... 1)Fill the fermenter up with the water first, then 2) add the napisan 3) give it a good stir or two All good, no (or far less foam) Happy days! Rendo

    Sanitation, Yeast, Bulk Priming And A Stupid Question

    Napisan ROCKS....its fantastic for cleaning just about all your gear (and bottles). I think the safest option, far more so than bleach/vinegar (which also rocks, really rocks, but MUCH caution is needed and I only use when i need to NUKE things) Just put a level cap full in your fermenter and...

    Thoughts On This Recipe?

    Looks GREAT.....the 500g LDME will do wonders, BUT...if you want to get a better head etc, then instead of 500g of LDME substitute it with 500g of Dry Wheat Malt (powder...just like normal LDME) and that will give much better head rentention US-05 yeast would also do wonders in producing a...

    Hazards Using Glad-wrap Instead Of Lid.

    The only hazard of cling wrap is that: 1) You will really like it, in fact, like it so much that it will become hazardous to your fermenter lid as you will likely chuck it out or neglect it and never use it again. 2) Your fermeneter lid will feel lonely and rejected 3) You will wonder why you...
