    Wok Stand

    I found a perfect stand for this that was supplied with our NEC microwave. Exactly like a cake stand/wok stand. Gave it a crack last weekend with excellent results.

    Grain Mills

    I must admit I do enjoy the grain crush side of things. Only takes a few minutes but the aroma of the freshly cracked grain heralds the start of the brew day. ......is it 5 o'clock yet? D'oh! Even have to squeeze 8 hours work in today between now and then

    My First All-extract Attempt

    Butters, just to confirm, I boiled full volume water and hops, therefore required the no chill overnight. If however you do 5-7 litres, you indeed are correct that adding 15 litres of cold will get you your starting temp. There seems to be conjecture over whether to add some malt to the water...

    My First All-extract Attempt

    Bribie, I went with morgans or coopers unhopped LDME brews for many years and never boiled the extract with the hops. I just chucked it in with 5 minutes to go and got it back to boil to sanitize, then finished and no chilled the wort overnight. I put the steeped grain in just before adding...

    Grain Mills

    OK, so my power drill did not have the guts or low speed gearing to turn the monster mill and I didnt want to get a new drill, electric motor etc. That said I hand cranked 5kg of grain last weekend in less than 5 minutes. I just had to show you my new piece of bling for the brewshed. Took a...

    A Few Hops And Beer Pics...

    Great to see the POR rhizome I sent you cracking along nicely. I only sent it 5 weeks ago!!! Gotta love that warm soil. Once it hits its straps your neighbours will complain as they will have lost their view.

    Any One Have An Idea What It Is

    They also mix fire fighting foam into water on the back of a bushfire fighting truck. A "venturi" type effect I believe.

    Grain Mills

    Just got my monster mill delivered from the US in just over a week and for just over $200 AUS. With the dollar the way it is and the quality and size of the stainless steel mill, its worth a look at. This price was mill only, now the fun part begins, cranking her up on power.

    Going Ag To Extract - Is It This Simple?

    Just boil your water and hops for the allotted bittering time, then add extract with 5-10 minutes to go. You can tick a checkbox in beersmith and it will adjust AAU, color etc accordingly. I find boiling extract for an hour gives you a much darker colour through caramelisation etc. and you use...
