Chinese soup noodle refractometer... They must be takin the piss lol It says 53% brix, so if you look at the ebay link you posted... that goes to 1.180 SG or 40% brix... so quite a bit higher :D (Aren't i usefull! :P ) If you want to even more silly, mine goes to 85% brix and i got it from...

Hi All, Firstly.... Have you tried Bruce Cost ginger Ale? If not... get on it. Its an unfiltered GInger Ale, that reminds me more of a ginger beer then ale... Its delicious.... and its stupidly expensive... Something like 16 bucks a 4 park from the supermarket. It is sweet with a good ginger...

It was a half batch for a RIS, was meant to be around the 10% mark but I didnt watch the boil close enough.... and i went foamy and reduced down... a lot, I've got the white labs stuff. Lesson's learned... Keep an eye on the damn boil! The outside of the fermenter was clean... now its got brown...

My IPA I use America II... The Imperial Stout I over boiled looks like it blew the lid off(calculated max off 22% abv :blink: ).... one of those run of the mill barrel fermenter with about 8litres in it... lol The fermenter needs to be able to handle any standard size batches I do (usually...

I have my STC-1000 probe siliconed in to a stainless end plug that goes in to a T-piece as part of my Recirc loop, it gets very very wet... No issues at all so far. Dropped my other StC-1000 probe straigt in the kettle with the coil and thats fine as well. Unlike my more expensive BBQ meat...

You forgot a digital PH meter... :D Maybe Brewdog own one to measure Sink the Bismark? :chug:

If my ebay special was anywhere near as clear as that I may have kept it.. Mine was Dark blue and blue... Was hard to get a decent, accurate reading... So I went all out and got a nice digital one :D So much easier to use, and it does temperature compensation for you as well.

I picked one up last week. I've come from using one of those caroma mills which I'm pretty sure only cracked the plate when I applied 150nm of torque via my dewalt driver.. anyway... This thing is much better, only really has 3 settings though on the roller, I milled mine on the finest setting...

Bugger was hoping it would be more of a hex shape. Could have used the 150nm torque dewalt impact driver then... Guess its the drill instead.. Of course it is possible all that torque is the reason why im going to kegking to get a new malt mill tonight... Cracked the plate on my corona style...
