Guess what Bob? You were the winner!! lol. Just threw some magnum in at 45 and saaz b at 5mins. Just wanted a easy beer to make, not after an award winner, but fingers crossed still. Ive never really used any hops by themselves, that was why i had to ask, but ive used ssaz b plenty a while back...

Just thought i would do a quick brew as i was home early for work. Doing a simple beer, trying to get things right. I was thinking of doing a SMASH with 4kg of Ale malt and Galaxy hops but just looked in the freezer and have a lot of old packs i could get rid of first. Here are some i have...

Love it, great marketing ploy! :lol:

Scotty, if i had of got to Warners as planned i would have got a growler of Hangman for sure, but due to a few sore heads we just jumped back on the freeway. As i said above, i will get into the Rocks one weekend to check it out, maybe take the missus to the markets then just disappear for a few!

Just spent the weekend in Newcastle for my end of season footy trip and was amazed at the quality of beers that just about every pub has. I thought i would have had to drink New or VB all weekend but happily not the case. The first pub i went to was the Clarendon and had a 28 pale ale on tap...

Just added myself, after my kid stuffed it around on me!

I picked up a case of this after work today. Wish i bought a single bottle. As said above, where are the hops? Turn the Galaxy up a couple of notches and it could be a good beer. Only thing i can think of is they dont put much hops in to keep within a budget, as all their beers are priced the...

Yeah i read the post where someone actually done a brew day there and brewed this and he did state that these were the actual hops used. Going off older posts it seems that they change the bill sometimes, depending on who the brewer is at the time. Reading the more recent posts saying it is...

Had a pint of this last week after playing footy in the city and loved it. After a search on here for a recipe it seems no one has posted one yet? There are a few older posts and some of them had hop types and what sort of malt goes in so after a little play around on beersmith i came up with a...

Yeah, maybe none of the above NN, but i'm sure a case of Amsterdam will be within budget!

I recently seen a list from Leura cellars with all their new beers. Definately a great range with plenty of Sierra Nevadas to choose from. The guy who runs the store will also deliver to your house. And DJR, next time your down here in the Riff, make sure you wear your flanny and crank up the...

oops, just seen a thread already on the topic. Must have skipped it, knew the topic would be popular. DJR, our local bottle shops are only interseted in VB and Tooheys, so for me no choice but to go to Dans unfortunately. And Gibbocore, whats so funny? Glad to give you a laugh though.

Dont know if this has been covered, have not been on here for a while but i have not seen it mentioned. A mate told me he bought some SNPA from Dan Murphys on friday and i couldnt believe it. Probably my favourite beer of all time available at a local bottle shop. Went down on saturday and got a...

We just got back from Bali last week. Perfect weather for the two weeks so that meant perfect time for Bintang! If its hot, its Bintang time. I wouldnt even bother drinking it here but for me its a must while in Bali, everyone stocks it, walk through the markets and they have little fridges...

thanks for the replies! I was thinking about the pitching calcs but need the time to run through them so i thought i would post here first. Just had a quick look and they have an iphone app, might do that and check it out. A bit off topic but got iBrew on the iphone last night, just to keep all...

Planning on brewing on the weekend, first one in months, cracked our grain last night in preperation and checked what we have. For the yeast we have just one pack of Wyeast 1272 American II in the fridge. As i brew with the neighour, we do @40L batches and split the wort, then do our own things...

What are those carbonator caps like Under? Is that the same as craftbrewer sell? I have never thought of using them for the leftovers but now that you have said it, seems like a great idea. Does it carb up a 1 or 2l coke bottle easily? Could be a worthwhile purchase if so.

Nice setup mate, as for answering one of your questions goes, i bought some silicon hose from Craftbrewer a while back and use it for transfering all my wort. I use it straight from the kettle after the boil, straight into my no chill vessel then it comes back out at racking time and again at...

Im not the best to give advice on formulating recipes but as far as your Saaz hops go, the Saaz and Saaz B are completely different from my understanding, used in different types of beers. All i know is that this is a great recipe when made right so changing the hops would not be ideal, probably...

Thanks Steve, next brew i might adjust by ten minutes and see how it goes, that way i might sort of get best of both worlds without changing recipe too much. Might even throw on the burners and brew today if i get the time and see how long it takes to cool for me. Cheers.
