    Continuing Rant Thread - Get it Off Ya Chest here

    Having to use Internet Explorer at work, they just won't upgrade. Was making final payment on my holiday when IE crashed. I checked my bank account, payment had come out, check back on vendor's website, still shows amount outstanding. Back and forth with customer service to sort out. To...

    Continuing Rant Thread - Get it Off Ya Chest here

    Worked earlier tonight, but I was pleasantly surprised by that. They did say on the radio today that you don't have to do it tonight, you can come back later in the week. The stupid part I found was that it figured out that some questions didn't apply, but not others. After filling in mine...

    Very Mini Bulk Buy - 2x 19L Ball Lock Kegs - $68 ea - Newcastle

    How'd you go? If you're still looking to offload 2 kegs, I'm in. Told you I'd waver. Will send you a PM.

    I like the way you think. I'm all for it.

    Very Mini Bulk Buy - 2x 19L Ball Lock Kegs - $68 ea - Newcastle

    I do need some more lagering kegs... I'm wavering here, give me a few more hours and if someone else isn't all over it, you'll probably hook me.

    Show us your Barrels

    As someone who knows nothing about barrels for beer, but is interested to find out more, how big are those and how many uses do you get out of them? From your post above I gather you're topping up as you go, does this mean you never really empty the barrel and start again or are you just...

    Very Mini Bulk Buy - 2x 19L Ball Lock Kegs - $68 ea - Newcastle

    Very tempted, but I think SWMBO would have my balls with this on top of the mini keg buy...

    Whats In The Glass (commercial)

    Then backed it up on Sunday with a trip to Block and Tackle on the Central Coast. Memory is a little hazy, however, right to left is golden ale, amber ale, porter and a collab brew with Six Strings, smoked milk stout. Also had their pale and belgian wheat beers. Well worth the trip, my...

    Whats In The Glass (commercial)

    Made it out to Murray's on Saturday, first one is their Mosaic SMASH. It was good, but I think I'd prefer it in combination with some other hops. Second photo is Fred IPA in foreground and Blood Orange IPA in the back. I had the spicy chicken wings with blue cheese sauce and the IPAs were...

    NSW State Comp 2016

    There was an earlier post somewhere further up that addressed this. Apparently stored at room temp until day before then refrigerated. Edit: Barls beat me to it

    Keg King MKII Pump - Low Flow Rate

    Internal diameter of your piping and any connections will effect flow rate. Every time there's a step down in diameter (a fitting, different sized hose etc), there'll be a decrease in flow rate. Some scientific type may shoot me down, but this is what I have observed in my system using that...

    Whats In The Glass

    Happy IPA day! This is my first IPA and it's Dano's Hop Hog clone. Been a while since I've had a Hop Hog, but I reckon this is pretty close from memory. Dank, resinous, delightful. Well done Dano. Again, it's a school night, but it is IPA day, so you know, it's just a week of exceptions...

    Barrel Beans

    Have to disagree on the 24 hours quoted above. I put 100g of quality whole roasted beans (23L batch) into my FV for 3 days in a milk stout prior to bottling and it worked out great. First time I used a hop sock and pulled them back out, second time I just threw them in and bottled after 3...

    Things that make you proud to be a parent

    Yep, mine too. Some would have seen me ranting a month or so ago about my (just turned) 3yo boy refusing to poo on the toilet. Well a few weeks ago he saddled up and dropped a deuce on the porcelain and hasn't looked back, happy days. But that's not the part I'm proud of, the best bit was...

    Dano's All Grain Feral Hop Hog Clone

    Just tapped my first attempt at this one, for testing purposes you understand, don't want to over carb it after all and it is a school night. Dano, you're a genius. This is delicious. Great recipe, will brew again.
