Hi guys. With working away and time against me I mainly brew FWK these days. I would like to hear of people’s experience with any favourite English Bitter fresh wort kits? I have a All Inn Omitted Fortune ready to go when I return home. I will be using Wyeast 1968 and will wash and re use...

Hi guys. Chasing up 50L kegs for dispensing beers so they would need to be complete. Thanks for your time!

Hi everyone. I am looking to purchase a pre-built keezer in SEQld. Had my eye on one from Gumtree but it looks like I was about a day late in contacting the seller. Would love one with a timber finish but open to any keezer’s available around QLD. Thanks!

Hi crew I have a question in regards to a preferred method of dry-hop timing and duration. Last night I pitched rehydrated US05 into an aerated APA wort. I am going to dry hop with Amarillo, Centennial and Simcoe. I fly out for a 2 week swing at a new job on Tuesday. My question is what would...

Hi everyone. I have done a couple batches of cider for the GF and while they have been well received, I am going to try a slightly different method. My first batch was done as normal and after fermenting completely out it was far too dry for my tastes. The girl liked it (she prefers drier...

Hi guys. It's been years since I last posted, glad to be back. :) I have had a fairly decent spell off home brewing and moving into my new house I am looking to get back into it and setting up a keg fridge again. I would love nothing more than to get the Crown running again and do some nice all...

Hi guys. I have been absent from the forum for a fair while but have a bit of a question for everyone. Has anyone been able to source Zeitgeist by Brew Dog lately? I can't seem to find it anywhere! It was one of my favourites when I was always buying and trying different beers! Thanks!

Just looking through the latest lot of new gear at craftbrewer and noticed the 5L party keg as found here http://craftbrewer.com.au/shop/details.asp?PID=4214 I was going to just email Ross but I thought if I post it up here he will eventually see it and others can learn from my question...

Hi guys. I am in the process of trying a few of the different FWK's from Ross and the guys at CBer. I recall Ross himself saying in a recent thread that the Golden Ale recipe is meant to be drunk asap. Aka ferment, cold condition or a week then drink. Could Ross or someone put up there...

Hi guys. Thought I would air my slight disappointment and regret from tonight. I am well along with my AG brewing and have done a handful of brews NC'ing. I had been leaving it the urn overnight and then transferring to fermenter. After advice I decided to just go with the accepted and fairly...

Hi fellas. Myself and 2 mates are going up to Broadbeach for Fri/Sat/Sun nights and staying just near the Casino. Is there any brewpubs or really good bars/pubs with a good variety on tap? Cheers! B)

Just recently purchased a CPBF from craftbrewer and bought this connector as recommended. I must be missing something as I can't find anything to connect the larger gas barb to my smaller co2 line. What is everyone else doing for this with this item? Thanks.

Just wondering do they add colouring to the beer? For the colour it is I don't taste the base or crystal malts. After originally loving it I am starting to think it's another mass produced beer with a few extra additives for the masses.

Hi fellas. I've done about 6 AG brews to date and am enjoying the step up in method of brewing beer. They have all been tasty minus 1 brew which I believe to be oxidised. Has a sweet sort of aftertaste and paperish taste which I believe to be oxidisation. Anyway I have decided to do a little...

Hi guys. Hooked up 2 new brews up to the gas and tap today. Mainly just a taste test so I just used 1 line between the beer out post and tap shank. This helped me realise there was a problem with a keg and not the split lines or taps. What has been happening is that one keg pours fine and the...

Hi everyone! Had a brew night tonight and thought I would take photos as I go just for something fun. I had been meaning to do this for a while but always remembered mid-brew. I hope this gives those new to extract or thinking about it an idea of how you can go about it. You can read all about...

Tasted my first Brewdog beers last night. Had the 5am Saint, Punk IPA and a Southern Tier IPA. All very nice and worth it over other commercial stuff by far as usual. Who else has tried this beer? The hops used are "Simcoe, Chinook, Nelson Sauvin, Centennial" I have only ever used and tasted...

Was at the LHBS picking up some more malt extract and decided to grab a Morgans Mulloys Irish Stout can as I wanted to get a quick brew going and I hadn't ordered the darker spec malts needed for the Better Red Than Dead recipe. :P The kit is the most expensive one I've bought at $19.95. It...

Hi guys. I am going to have a good go at a darker style recipe. Haven't ventured away from the usual APA style with my extracts. I don't mind Guiness and really like Kilkenny. After reading many search results and recipeDB chats I am going to have a crack at either the Who Killed Kenny by...

Hi fellas. Just putting this little rant up to see if anyone else is in the same situation as I seem to be in. I looked around before buying a cylinder for my kegging setup and chose to buy off eBay. I went this route as it was the cheapest $175 for a brand new 2.6kg filled cylinder and it was...
