I have been away since before Xmas on an overseas job, In a past life I was in the forces and did some CP and bodyguard work, I got offered a very lucrative job so off I went for 4 months at a drop of a hat. :angry: Now I am back and dead keen to get back in to brewing but will have to start...

I have just purchased a shiny new kegging setup which is my wifes Xmas present to me :super: Now I need to know a few things. Basically the system I have bought is a complete start up job which includes all I need to get going (I think) apart from a fridge and CO2. What I have bought is the...

I brewed a stout 3 weeks ago, it was my second ag and my xmas case contribution. it spent 2 weeks in primary before I racked to secondary where it has now been for a week. I am thinking of bottling it this sunday as I have a free slot (Pretty rare at the moment as we are in the middle of...

I really want to try and replicate the Beez Neez which I tried last weekend and enjoyed, it is not a session type drink all night beer but would be nice to have a few with seafood and to let my megaswill drinking buddies try. Ok, how should I approach such a brew? I am a newbie brewer who has...

You might of read the story of the stout I brewed on the weekend, it was an all grain beer for the QLD Xmas case. I pitched the yeast WLP004 on Sunday evening and left it in the fridge to cool down overnight, i pitched at 26C so wanted it to come down a bit more before turning the fridge off and...

I am looking forward to firing up the NASA this weekend for the first time in a while, as I dont get a chance to brew as often as I would like I want to make sure it is a good end result, therefore here is the Stout recipe I am going to use for critique. As always, a few questions too. 4.5K...

I have not had much time to bottle my first Ag since I moved it to secondary 3 weeks ago, and knowing the next two weekends are already spoken for today was the day, it was never meant to be. :excl: First off, at the moment I have a stinking cold and a nose like a tap, not good for sanitation...

I am finally a member of the all grain club and it was nowhere near as hard as I thought it would be, nothing went wrong (Apart from adding too much hops but that was human error, my system worked very well) and I had plenty of time between steps to prepare the next step and visualise what I...

I have been busy tinkering (You could tinker forever) With my setup and have decided I am as ready as I will ever be and am going to have a go at my first AG sometime this weekend. As I don't have time to get to the HBS and get a liquid yeast this time around I am going to use dry yeast and next...

I did a full dry run of my system today to check how it all works and where I am lacking, it went pretty well but for a few things. I boiled around 40L in my HLT keg and drained the water on to the 500g of crushed grain that I had on hand from testing my mill (No I did not use coco pops) :D ...

My Crankandstein 2A mill arrived this morning from Fred (took around 2 Weeks) and I have spent the last few hours playing with it. I made a temporary base and hopper from a piece of scrap plywood I had and a hopper from a 3 litre pop bottle, took about 30 minutes and I am tool challenged :ph34r...

Last week I had a Stout sitting in secondary with no bottles to put it in, it had sat there for almost a Month while I tried to drink enough beer to make empties to start the process again. I was continually running out of bottles. All of a sudden I have more bottles than you could shake a...

I have almost completed my AG setup and can see me cranking it up within the next few weeks but at this stage I have no idea what I will brew. I fancy trying an Irish red but after looking at various recipe's on the interweb it leaves me wondering how easily most of the grains could be obtained...
