Hi all Do you think it would be easy to turn these into fermenter's using a well placed tap, installing an airlock and fridge mate. Mark

My first brew 5 months ago, two bottles went kaboom in my garage and sprayed beer and glass all over both our 4WDs and everythings else that was in the garage. I fixed this problem by going straight down the HBS and purchasing a keg system. Never looked back. To this day I am still finding a...

I was just wondering if i add hot water to this brew or not, its a lagar yeast that i got with it.

Hi all I just bought a tub of brewers selection Lagar, and the instructions say to just add 5L of cold water and yeast. Do i add hot water to help start the yeast or follow the directins to the tea. my thoughts would normally be to ad hot water, but i in the past i have only brewed using the...

Hi all I came home and went to check on my home brew and saw that it looks like the yeast has exploded out of the air lock and is all over the top of my lid, is this ok and is my brew still good? I put the brew on yesterday and did nothing different than i normally do. Any sugestions Cheers...

Nice thanks can you buy those kits online cheers

MHB I just read back through the instructions, and realised that all the measurements are taken off a 2L bottle as all i had at the time was 1.25L bottles so i used 2L measurements for 1.25L. I am a fool and my misses keeps telling me to read instructions properly, ie television setup...

I chilled it down to 3deg first and than opened it.....

Hello I opened my first batch of oztops the other day and there was a gigantic yeast monster that when released from his cossy little bottle gushed out of the bottle engulfing my hand and tried to take over the kitchen sink, luckily he was subdued by some quick hot water released from the tap...

Helloooo thanks for the feed back its only a small freezer so i think flooding will be out. It sits inside in the shade, so i think i will just go with the fan as i like my beer freezing cold cheers again

Hello I was just wondering if any off you who have flooded fonts allways keep them on or do you only turn them on when you are serving beer. I figure it wouldn't take long to cool the font. But I have no idea about font setups but am currently in the research phase of my chesty convert. Cheers...

Danial I don't have a font yet :angry: but am hoping to find one like yours but only a duel tap as i am trying to keep my consumption down a little and my beer production at a slower rate, being back at work again. Is yours brass and where did you get it from, how much etc. I am starting...

I reakon i'm good to go with the tools but could not see your pics mark My bad danial I have been following your build on the site, and I used to be a plasterer but downed the tools cause i was sick off hiding chippies, sparkies, plumbers etc work....no not really just got over it, so no job...

Hi all for my chest freezer conversion I am going to run the font out of the freezer lid. Will i need a flooded font to keep the font cold or will it stay cold enough with just the cold air from the freezer. Also i am going to get some cold room panneling cut to size to replace the freezer lid...
