Yep total heaven! Really is a top drop. I have another one in the carboy at the moment with a few tweaks. By the way BP, what BJCP category would the JAO fit into? I was thinking the 26C. Open Category Mead because it "combines ingredients from two or more of the other mead sub-categories"...

Thought i'd add to this post! Has anyone in Syd got a mill they want to sell or get rid of? Or anyone want to go halves in the postage for a Monster Mill from the US? Cheers DK :super:

I'd be interested in a couple of bags.

Noticed that Bunnings had heaps of 7gal rubbermaid coolers for $99 today. (Bankstown) I was after one of these for ages! Cheers DK

Probably a stupid question, if entering a mead do you really have to supply a minimum of 500ml? Cheers DK

Bottled my first JAO yesterday, I found a cache of 5 clear port bottles that all had less than 50ml in each, drank all that, cleaned the bottles and the in went the mead. Only then did I allow a taste and .... bloody hell it is the gods nectar. Very very tasty and sweet, I am really pleased how...

Quick question - what do you guys bottle the JAO in? Mine mead is nice and clear, all the fruit has dropped to the bottom thought i might bottle it this weekend. Not to sure 750ml or Grolsch bottles really suit. Thought I might have a few 330ml lying around but they are screw tops, never had...

Great tips guys, I will check them out this weekend. Wish me luck getting the palms out! DK

That reminds me, I have to withdraw from this one. Monkeybusiness you are first reserve. Good luck fellas. DK

Hi guys, Since i am on this forum every day thought i'd start here first. I have a backyard with horrible neddle palms (those fu#king palm trees with 4 inch long needles protuding from it). I have organised a chainsaw for next weekend so they are all going, in all about 6 of the bastards...

As a massive fan of the British curry variations I was always on the lookout for recipes. I stumbled upon this a few months ago, and when they say the Holy Grail they mean it! Pretty simple to follow, makes heaps and stores well. Our favourites are Veg Korma for SWMBO and Chicken Vindaloo for...

My first attempt at a Weizenbock. Probably a bit light in colour but I quite like it, although a few schooners knocked me on my arse. :party: Dodgy iPhone pic - DK

Duuuuuude...... really? How about a Bitter - Linky or a Mild - Linky Thirst quenching. Great session beers. Easy as grain bills. DK

+1 The cost always used to surprise me when looking at the price boards in the coolrooms, so cheap, yet so so horrid.

+1 Had one the other night at the Belgian Beer Cafe and it is pretty similar to Duvel.

Ha Ha :ph34r: I used my Googlefu and came up with this - Red Recipe . Third one across. (looks horrible!) DK

Hi GTS350, 1. The ferment fridge (actually a chest freezer with a FridgeMate) is set to 19 deg. 2. My sample jars are 70ml, when brewing a new beer i just take one out and build a 2L starter out of it. Its a great way to store yeast (they stack well, you can write legibly on them) and it means...

:o I should have put "any serious offer will be considered" !!

Hi All, Up for sale is a good condition Andale twin beer font . It needs a good polish, a new cap and possibly a spare snap-lock fitting. I actualy sold this on eBay a couple of weeks ago, the guy who bought it thought it was all to hard to get up and running so I have it up for sale again...

Dudes, top top work. :super: Will test out with 40L Crown urn this weekend. I will adjust the kettle trub and buffer down to 3ish though. Above 4 seems like lots! DK
