    Trinity Beach Nth QLD - any change of getting a decent beer ?

    No sorry. Lucky to find a decent drop in the bottl-os there. The variety has gone up 50% lately though with the introduction of Iron Jack. Exactly the same as GN but comes with a different label.

    Case swap? Also- will you take hop infused salami and oyster shooters in exchange for ski lift passes?

    Yep. Will be heaps better than having to walk across the road on a Saturday, telling multiple brochure waving social outcasts to **** off and find something useful to do on their weekends all for the chance to randomly cross 72 boxes on a bedsheet sized piece of pulped tree to vote in some self...

    Anyone tried legacy hop variety?

    Thanks for the feedback. It is good to have someone come back and report results on something with very little intel. Have some of this at my LHBS so will try it next time I do something English.

    The sudden stop is just as much a factor. Stopping Kills.

    What are you brewing in 2017 ?

    Just kegged my first lager. Pilsner with a new world edge (was out of Perle so subbed Mosaic and cascade). No finings, no filter, just 4 days @4C and 6 days @ -1C. Drinking now but putting some away to lager properly. 44L, 80% eff, OG 1050 FG 1010 ABV 5.2% IBU 33.5 8.5kg Pils 100g Acidulated...

    Gose & Salt

    I brewed a 40L batch and used 4 teaspoons total. I found it was a good match, the salt was there, just enough to offset the light sourness (pH3.7). I would suggest a sourer beer would benefit from a bit more salt. I think a good Gose balances the sourness with the salt with the spice (I used...

    Lager question

    Firstly, just like to ask the OP why are you concerned about German purity laws? You are a homebrewer, make what you like how you like IMO. You are not selling commercially in Germany so why bother? Most commercial breweries do use dex in their beers to thin them out- in Australia anyway...

    Yes, the connectedness afforded by social media has not only given the DFMs a stage to perpetuate the intelligence sapping drivel, but it has enabled them to realise that there are a lot more DFMs out there than they ever imagined. This in turn has given the DFM's a place to socialise with...

    Rehydration is a government plot to control the minds of the masses through dihydrogen monoxide poisoning (with traces of aluminium for sun reflection). We have caught onto the airliner distribution networks so now the bastards are targeting the most enlightened of the population (brewers)...

    Danstar Diamond Lager Yeast in 11g Sachets

    You would have to think Hef was being more than coy. Id say he left off a 0.

    I found the ads a refreshing change from the rest of it. For all it's downfalls it still beats the **** out of another ******* show full of ********* squabbling over how to flambe a peach or screed a bathroom.

    May have found a good low alc!

    Eff about 65% with those numbers. 69-70C is a common mash temp for Milds etc. Brings body while reducing attenuation so you can get low alc beer with some body.

    May have found a good low alc!

    What is your volume? If you are brewing 23L with 4.6kg of grain, then you should be getting a lot more than 1.035 at 70% efficiency. Did you brew a bigger batch or was that with 3.6kg of grain?
