usage for SS kegs..?? heard of Ned Kelly?

up on the Gold Coast there are pubs that commonly have Bundy & Cola on tap (called Dark and Stormy), it gets sent from the Bundy distillery as a mixer keg.. frakken sweet..

Hi All.. [I have done some searches on the forum and haven't found an answer] I have been mixing cola/dry ginger ale with NOTHING in my kegs then gassing it. First I gassed at 10psi (3-4days in the fridge), when the mixer poured out from the tap it fizzed a bit then went flat quickly (taste...

I meant it as a compliment !!

Nice.. kind of looks like the rig the Bushtuckerman would have.. were those drums cheap and easy to get?

I have a Johnson Control unit already for the HLT. What sort of burner do you reckon cand do this job "off the shelf"?

Apparently the base would be suitable, but that was originally a concern I had too.

I haven't bought one yet, but I have had the bookmark saved in firefox for months. Recently I was at a brew session at the Grain & Grape and Sam showed us the exact same tap in a box from Keg King. It looked very impressive up close, but it wasn't hooked up to anything. For $50 bucks it seems great.

Currently I have a 10 gallon capacity AG rig. It's made up of 1x 50L Aluminum Boil Kettle and 2x 50L Stainless Steel Keggles that are the HLT and MT. The HLT has a 2200watt heating element and the kettle has a 40mj/h turkey burner. The rig has two March Pumps and is all run manually. The new...

A great Parma is a good way to judge a pub's worth (beyond the beer).. I'm sure Gordon "F**king Donkey" Ramsey would even judge a pub on it's Parma.. Great Parmas can be found at the Young & Jackson Pub (Flinders St, Melbourne), Mrs Palmers (Lt. Bourke St, Melbourne) and Portland Hotel (at...

w0w.. i didn't realise i was surrounded by beer snobs.. regardless of Grand Ridges crime against humanity (or beer) they still have some great brews.. although i find their Supershine to be too much; the Gippsland Gold is perrrfect..

The Scotch Ale #2 recipe listed above is superb.. The head issue from the first recipe is resolved and the cloyingly sweet taste is gone.. This is a recipe I will keep making unless my all-grain brewing surpasses it..

About a month ago the missus & I did a road-trip of some breweries close to Melbourne.. Holgate Brewery (Woodend), Grand Ridge Brewery (Mirboo North), Red Hill Brewery (Red Hill).. and it was a mix bag experience. First we drove to Holgate Brewery (Woodend) Woodend is a cute town, tempting to...

sWeeeeet dude.... gr8 idea.... doh!

thx Sammus.. this is the info i needed.. i have been using pellets upto now and was concerned with the "pellet muck" getting stuck/built-up in the plate chiller.. if you say it is fine/small enough to go straight through then that's FANTASTIC :icon_cheers:

Hi Guys.. I'm just about finished putting together my All-Grain rig. The only part of the process still up for grabs is between the boil kettle and the fermenter. Wort Chiller: I have pretty much decided to buy the Brazed Plate Chiller 20 Plate, Suits 45 litre batches...

a Brazed plate chiller yep that looks great.. I've seen it at the brewshop and online.. but by all reports it's a complete bitch to clean and a real risk to every next batch with infection.. I wish that wasn't the case as I luv gadgets and they look so sweet..

I've decided to run with the "Chillus Economus" Counterflow chiller from Grain & Grape + 2125 Series FlowJet/FloPump rated at 12.5 L/Min.. I want the Counterflow system to save water, in Melbourne I think this is a real concern.. Anyone have any recommendations about the suitable pump?
