Jon went through his stocks and came up with 400L of an Aussie Amber Ale. Was going to be an Aussie Pale but an accidental doubling of his color addition turned it into an Amber :-) POR hops at 60min and 20min. I would like to go back and have one with the boys when it is ready. Jon had a...

Just noticed in the first set of pics I have 2 pics (first and last) of Jon, the head brewery for Degrees Brewery, bent over working. Someone had to work while we talked and drunk golden nectar. Drewy

Got a tour of Barrett Burston's malting plant. 1 of 4 germination beds. On the same day we did a tour of Little Creatures. This is there yeast store, Yes in 50L kegs. My favourite bit, the hop store. Pallets of Cascade and Chinook. Even got to stick my head in a box of Cascade, Heaven. A...

Hugh talking about the 600L brewery at Degrees. Jon cooked up 400L of Aussie Pale Ale. A bit more of Hugh talking. His stories were full of gold for a novice like me. 2x 1200L fermenters, 1x 600L fermenter and 1x 600L bright tank. This rolled out most afternoons. 2x kegators and an...

Yeh the beer week has come and gone. Public transport was the way to go but waiting for the train at 9:00 at night was a bit painful. All the guys were great. Tim O'Rouke a UK brew master ran the theory sessions and Hugh Dunn ran the drinking sessions. I made a list of about 20 things I want to...

Correct. Works best on haze proteins in the boil and not so well on yeast. Try insinglass or gelatin in the keg/fermenter. Drew

Needed a good laugh. Thanks Nath.

Thanks for the info. Yes I hijacked the thread a bit talking about HERMS. I will talk to my sparkie friends about what will suit my new setup.

Thanks. I have been doing some research since the last post, would I be right in assuming the STC1000 is like buying a PID and Solid State Relay but in 1 handy unit?

Will these STC1000 controlers withstand a 2200w heating element switching on and off to run a HERMS system? No good getting one if I fry the contacts in 1 day. Does anyone know of a part number for a 16amp controler that would do the same job? (Nev I know your controlers are better just let me...

Jyo, your lever of humour is just too quick for me this morning. No reply from Triple B. must have gone back to bed.

You might have been. I have fuzzy bits between people leaving and me getting up this morning. I remember eating some of George's chilli sauce with tea. My mouth is still sore.

Was kind of hoping you wouldn't post something like this because now I am going to have to burst your bubble. How Tripple B's last post should have read. Drewy mashed in at 10:15, I am still waiting for the misses to drop my grain off which I left at home. First beer was just after mash in...

Thanks Screwy. I hope we can host another one in a few months time. I really have had a great day but boy I need a sleep!!
