And there wont be any shortage of it. I just brewed a Foreign Extra Stout (7.5%) that will be on the hand pump.

Hi Rob I bought a six pack while in Melbourne. Didnt pay real close attention while drinking, but your malt bill looks pretty good. To me a bit more chocolate than 1%, but once you have a taste of that malt bill it will be easier to work out.

No-one has been removed from the list.

You dont have to attend to be in the swap, so I am not sure what that means. Isnt Lloydie the same brewery or am I confused?

Hey TDA, I will also be in Melbourne later tomorrow. But... I am there to do a 250 km cycle round the bay on Sunday, and I cant afford to let AHB reprobates get hold of me, the only thing worse than 250 km is 250 km with a hangover.

:lol:

This is Grahams thread for confirming orders, and so if people keep chiming in about pesticides etc, I will delete them. There is another thread available for making those sorts of posts.

No you shouldnt.

Wow, unlucky, reputedly Greyhounds are the breed worst affected by hops, I remember seeing stats in which they are highly represented in hop poisoning.

Kunze, the seminal commercial brewing reference, suggests the only problem with a copper kettle is keeping it clean on the outside.

Its easy to run different pressures with one reg and a manifold, especially if you never leave the gas on, just operate on teh pressure in the headspace of the keg. Dual regs/extra regs are a waste of money, if you really want that option, go to Enzed connectors or similar and get an inline...

The Earl Nice pub as you say. Its a shame all the imported ales are on nitro, as it makes them taste muted and similar. Tanglehead English Pale ale - at the crystal end of the spectrum but a nice beer, and better balanced if you let it warm up from the icy serve temp Stout - good flavour and...

A couple of months ago, the beers were very good at Tanglehead, although I didnt try the lager. Planning to pop in this week so will taste the full range and let you know.

Excellent nickname Mr Pombadier

Apparently there was an insane dollar value of hops in his, think it might have been a one off.

Nice looking grain bill there Rob. Did you get any reddish tint? I know I was drinking it all night the other day, but in my defense I was drunk and I was using a stein.

Yup, brew whatever you like and whatever you think people will most appreciate trying. If we get 25 APAs, so be it.

Nice work Mr Chicken, practising saves having to buy beer to meet your case obligations, hey Mika? Plastic bottles are a bit of a hassle, but there have been enough glass bottles explode in peoples houses that I really dont want them used. I have a bunch of used plastic bottles from last years...

I remember Dave Logsdon bemoaning in a talk people who pitch a smack pack into a "pint" starter. His point was that kind of wakes the yeast up, and gets it a bit active, but it doesnt provide enough volume to get it reproducing, and its better to step to a couple of litres.

Very nice work. I dont see a gear guard, maybe that isnt an issue on a motorised version?
