I have 5-6 dozen bottles for free in Mornington. Sitting in my shed for last 3 years and i never got around to filling them. Some are the brown bought ones, some are cleaned retails ones (like Heineken). The ones on the tops of the boxes are dusty, but all have been cleaned before they were...

cool it can be deleted then :) i did a search first too :(

Saw this on kickstarter and thought of the forum. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/growlerwerks/the-ukegtm-pressurized-growler-for-fresh-beer You need to get in before Dec 8 Our local bottle shop has growler filling station and i live close to Mornington Brewery so growlers suit me. The...

I have a mead that has been sitting forgotton for 9 months. Its very clear and i was going to bottle it, however it is a super standard, honey and yeast. I would like to sweeten maybe half of it. Any tips on the simplest way to back sweeten...can i sweeten straight into large swing tops if i...

Awesome thanks for posting up the details. Sorry i wasnt clearer, i usually do full extract, no kits. The reason i posted yet another thread was because i was hoping to get the most up to date info from people who have been brewing this type of beer and a strong recommendation...and...i know...

I want brew a nice Pale similar to Little Creatures or Williams, a strong, hoppy Pale. Whats the best, tried and tested Pale recipe for extract brewers?

Do you have everything needed to use it as wine fridge? does it still work as designed? what suburb is it in? cheers

Only brewed yesterday but i was amazed how good it tasted already...in the end i only added a about 5g of cascade and 7 or so of citra that i had left...not enough to really change it. I tipped all of those hops into the fermenter. I dont cold crash or anything, just siphon through a hop sock...

We crush n strain, but i am on a backyard scale not commercial. even though i have an extractor, its just easier and the wife likes to harvest the wax. Bees will draw out new comb very fast. You can think of it like giving everyone in the colony more to do, so they work harder, its good for the...

Of courses its not dangerous...kinda like dogs...until you walk up to a dogs bowl and grab his bone he is no harm to anyone. Urban bee keeping was normal since civilisation began until we sanitised everything and kicked them out, now most cities wants them back...good for everyone.

I got a city job and long hours and small kids too...thats why i keep bees and ducks n chooks n stuff...adventure! Its not a lot of work...its a pleasant distraction and like beer you make stuff you can share with people...very satisfying :)

Lol. Not sure about a demo but happy to help. I know people in MTE on Allison rd that keep pigs (2/3 acre out there)...they were gonna get bees from me but moved on to farming fish in their yard. Anything is possible if you're keen...its easy to do with out upsetting your neighbours etc.

Try to answer as many questions as i can, got couple fo single malts for the birthday...an they are goooood. Dont worry about extra bee stings if you're allergic. If you have bees in your yard now you wont have any more with hives, they forage far and wide, not close and narrow. My dog got a...

For those who want honey for your homemade beer or mead...why not keep bees and let them gather honey for you? I work with bees as a hobby and use honey in everything at home and was thinking it makes sense for homebrewers to be beekeepers too! If anyone needs/wants bee colonies i can help...

I am gonna try this recipe next. Do you keep bees? I have 10 hives so hoping for a bit of honey for mead this year. I have only made one, its been in the fermenter for 82 days. I havent touched it, watched it change colour and clear right up. Any recommendations for how long to keep it in there...

Have many people actually used this recipe and gotton a good result? I am about to try it today, but i have some amarillo and citra and galaxy left over...are any of these likely to work ok in this brew? Citra for bitterness has worked well in a few others i have done. Any other tips or...

I have only taken the one sample...i always forget to take one after everything goes in the fermenter. I boiled 1 can for 60min in 7l and the other and the dex for the last 10-15min. I had dissolved and stirred it a lot i had thought, maybe i didn't do it enough and its settled at the bottom a...
