fergi, the fermenter or what ever your using for your cold conditioning. i thought there was a post or an 'airlocked' thread with CC methods somewhere ?

i'm with jayse, the amber malt gives a great choccie flavour to the beer ( i used the JW Amber Malt). something along the follow; up the batch size to suit as its for 10L 1.70 kg. JWM Traditional Ale Malt 0.25 kg. JWM Amber Malt 0.15 kg. JWM Crystal 140...

not trying to sound like an ad, grain and grape have conicals listed now for a whole lot less then ibrew. 46L for $749, however the 150L sounds interesting :)

johnno, that looks much better for the airlock :) i can finally add something to the topic, i was trying to mill some grain for a brew and got carried away and bumped the table. one tipped hopper, lots of spilt grain all over the floor and one upset beer maker. <_< however the birds seem to...

sounds very familar. it took a huge effort to convert my father to drink my beer, but once he actually drank some boy did he change his mind. i think it helps to explain the process you have undertaken to get your beer. its always funny watching people take their first sip, realise they...

thanks all, hopefully it will pass to the north, which means however that the tiwi islands will get battered.. but then the thing might swing south and get darwin.

thanks everyone. its all quiet at the moment, but it looks like that sucka is coming for a visit.

holy crap, good luck big d, i hope it stops or turns into a rain depression otherwise darwin's next :unsure:

Plastic Man, i put 2 in mainly to bring it to the boil faster and then switch one off. i also figured if i'm trying to boil 30L+ (only doing 15~20L) at the moment, then the two would keep the large volume at a good boil. i think we need the myth busters to have a go at busting the scorching...

Hi Barge, more my own observations then any hard facts. i've just finished brewing a pale ale with 100% ale malt. its a 40L plastic bucket with twin belle rings of doom :ph34r: . only did a 60min boil and no sign of scorching or burnt tastes. this is about my 4th AG beer using the bucket...

well looks like our mate didn't manage to sell those one-of-a-kind glasses ..... i found some 'crystal' pilsner urequell glasses..... i wonder what they would be worth selling. i mean it is a pilsner urequell glass after all ;)

my eyes my eyes, it burns. looks like a jerry springer episode :)

Hey big d, you catch some of that shaking tonight? how weird was that, very freaky ! B)

holy crap, i broke one of them glasses about 6 months ago.... the horror, the horror. and there goes my nest egg ;) :P

spicks, use both the kit and the muntons in the brew. the crystal will add some sweetness and depending on the type add some toffee flavours. and its a never ending learning curve :)

i would guess that with only centennial it would be very strong. however having said that, i'm sure i've seen clone recipes packed with centennial, or as the yanks call them Imperial IPA's :) i'm sure a beer brewed by stone's or 3 floyds is a centennial only brew or has it as the main hop. but...

the advantage...one MASSIVE HOP HIT !!!

i'm with plastic man, i got two of those heavy duty safety switches. they cost a lot but sure bets the other option. as for stainless, not to sure. might be safer to get a sparky to wire up a bigger (wattage) element. check out batz's gallery pictures.

$55 bucks for a 1.5L bottle of chimay grand reserve, 2000 vintage i think. worth every cent :)

price to darwin sounds good
