Has anyone ever seen gas check valves, with 1/4" NPT to 1/4" MFL fittings on them, sold in Aus? I can see quite a few available in the land of the obese and free, but nothing locally (or even via China in fleaBay/aliexpress). For reference, here's what I'm looking for -...

Well, you've certainly sparked my interest... How will this work, they're going to set up a special pool for AHB? So we all need to get in at once, then work from there?

All the comps I've seen (in Melbourne) are fine with PET bottles and regular PET caps. No need for anything expensive or even mucking about with bottling glass bottles. Where abouts were the requirements in glass capped bottles?

I'm interested in seeing the results for entry fees being a barrier for entry. That is an area we have a fair amount of flexibility with, as suggested above, and other "creative" ways of dealing with it. I would pose a follow up question to whoever finds the entry fees high, are they expensive...

There are a couple of problems I keep hearing when soliciting this kind of feedback in our club, and amongst my friends. First off is the logistics of it all. We (the clubs running these comps) need to make sure the entrants get plenty of notice so they actually have time to brew the beer. Then...

That sounds amazing! Now, if I could only write...

My understanding was the 2 piece valves were torqued at the factory for a good seal, and pulling it apart means you need to get that right torque doing it back up again, otherwise you'll either end up with too tight a valve, or leaks.

I've got a fair amount of KK gear as well, can't save I've ever had any issues with their stainless stuff. Push in fittings and intertaps are a little crappy though. I'm surprised you say KK is cheaper, wondering where you're comparing to here? I know I can get stuff of ebay/alliexpress for a...

Well, it looks like the scores of the Saisons are still wrong (at least the published scores), so I would have through they'd need to get that fixed up before contacting winners... FWIW, Our club announced the winners internally, for our members, so maybe they thought all other clubs were doing...

Interesting looking machine. Keen to see how the brewday turns out.

I was planning the same thing, just without welds, cause (still) no welder. Had a bit of a design in mind mainly to kinda hang the burner on a shelf below the kettle, via some threaded rod. That way I can dial in the exact right height for it instead of relying on pre-cut/made sections.

Well, considering this thread has been phoenixed, related question. What are people using for stands with these burners? I'm using some refractory bricks to hold up my kettle. Works quite well, but it's a bit of a hassle to set up and pull down. I'm wanting to create a more semi-permanent brew...

So convenient! Here I was all worried I'd lose track of the order of things.

I've got 2 of the Micromatic ones, because I was sick of waiting for the KK ones to come back into stock. They work alright, problem is they don't have check valves, so you need to add those somewhere along the line, making the system more complicated. They also use push in fittings (like the...

Annnnnnnnd the scoresheets are now published in Compmaster. Get at it.

Yeah, we certainly tried for that, unfortunately it didn't get over the line this year. Lots of interest from sponsors, but very little seemed keen to just give us a cheque. But, hey, there's always next year to give another go!

Hi All, Results are now live in Compmaster. Scoresheets are still being scanned, and will be uploaded hopefully in the next day or 2.
