Manticle is right on the money... I'd be using super for bittering and chuck some tetnang in at the end of the boil for flavour/aroma... either that or make 2 seperate brews using a different hop in each brew and see what you like. That way when you do your 3rd you can try and mix and match a...

i'll be there... on sunday though

Possibly a bag of MO and ale...

My guess is VB, Crown, Extra Dry, and most likely a tinny of KB!!! :lol:

Northmead Cellars is pretty good. On the corner of Windsor Rd and Briens Rd.

I don't think the boss has ever complained about beer spending/making... she generally encourages it as long as she gets an order in occasionally. So I don't ask her about her things... sometimes better not knowing!!!

Does the beer taste like ****... Or **** taste like beer???

If or when you open up the small packet... see if its a dark colour or a real light yellow colour. If its dark its yeast (which you have bought saflager anyway) If its a sort of yellow colour its finings (which can be bought for a few bucks at the LHBS) Cheers, Andrew

If its gone hard I'd say they have gone off/lid wasn't sealed properly. Can't say I've ever come across hard LME from the brewshop before. It would be yeast under the cap as well Cheers, Andrew

I just put the handle end of a wooden spoon in it and give it a knock... comes straight out

Went to both Zierholz and Wig and Pen yesterday. I wasn't overly impressed with the service at Zierholz (waited approximately 10 minutes to get served a beer/tasting paddle!) whilst other people were being served straight away... Basically felt like waking out. But the beer was pretty good...

Ages ago I did an APA with the Morgans blue mountain kit as the base, 1k light LME, 24g cascade dry hopped and I think I used Safale S-04 for the yeast... It was an absolute cracker! Andrew

Put down a ND hefeweizen last week after reading this topic. Kept it simple to try and see what the plain kit was like. Used safbrew and fermented it for 8 days. Went into secondary for c'cing the other day and tasted quite nice then. Just need to wait for the weekend so i can keg it!

A new lawnmower and whipper snipper... Let someone borrow mine and they bought it back buggered! And the mower has been temperamental the last few times i've used it... So time to upgrade to newer models

I used to be a night time brewer... Usually finishing between 12 and 2 and leave the cleaning up for the next morning. Now I find it a lot easier to do it on a saturday or sunday morning. All cleaned up and ready to hit the fridge/lounge by 10!!!

Sorry mate, don't have a recipe for you... But I can vouch for the fact that its a great beer! Probably one of the best on the market in my eyes

Thats even a better buy BYB... Gotta be over the moon with that... My one was in a mates shop for not much more than a year. Works beautifully just need to organise a fridgemate when SWMBO puts through budget

Yeah... Perspex top would be good... Going to be hard doing class because its rounded. Its higher at the rear by a couple of inches

Hopefully do a flip-top type bar which would make it easy to get to. Try and tuck it all underneath, cut a hole in the glass and straight up to the fonts

The other day I scored a commercial freezer like the ones you see all the ice creams in at the takeaway shops. Should fit about 6-7 kegs in it plus hops, yeast etc. Got it for $300!!!!! :D Now I just need to save up for more kegs, fridgemate controller, timber to build bar around it, fonts...
