Your keg was already at atmospheric pressure before you sealed it. You then upped that pressure by 50 Kpa.

76 grams gets 2.4 volumes of CO2 in a 19 litre keg.

Just a heads up for all who don't already know. Golden City Equipment have moved to Phillips Drive Kangaroo Flat. Just got a fresh 6kg bottle today for $50 :)

You win Kai :) Great piece of kit, it belongs in a beer museum.

Not only survived but still works and reads accurately. The scale is also very easy to read, 1000 - 1050. My modern hydro's scale is 980 - 1150 making the increments a tad small for my old eyes.

This is my oldest bit of kit, it's almost as old as me :) I inherited this from my Grandfather. He obviously didn't do big beers, as it only reads up to 1050. It was purchased in 1969 for the princely sum of $1.73 So what is your oldest bit of kit?

Golden City Equipment supplies is where I get mine from. They do ( or at least did) a 4kg bottle for ~$120. That is you own the bottle (full) and he the operates on a swap and go after that for around $50. They are at 37 Collins Street Kangaroo Flat 5447 0166 Good luck

Manticle, I bought the pre-set model. It crushes very well. I do Biab so double crush has given me a couple of points of efficiency gain, while a single crush works very well if your not fussed over 2-3% points. Crushing wheat malt, or any malt, is no problem. Yardy, I conditioned by adding...

From memory the delivery was very quick for a parcel from the states, I'm thinking inside of 3 weeks. I know it wasn't the 3 or 4 months I waited for kegs from the states. As for the service, I have never needed to be in touch with them as the mill has always worked well with no problems what so...

I've got on of these, bought it with the base,hopper and crank handle 4 years ago. Very, very happy with it. I can easily hand crank 5 kilos of grain in 5-10 minutes. The base board is very solid and has 3 rubber feet which hold it very stable over a 20 litre bucket to catch the grain. The fit...

Thanks Bribie, yes I am using Lyle's. I'll give it a go at 1/2 way through and then do a batch with it in at the start to see if there's a difference.

I'm going to do a Speckled Hen clone and was wondering, when is the best time to add golden syrup? Would it be at mashout or just prior to the boil? Cheers

Well done on your first 2 AG brews Marksy. Welcome to the wonderful world of BIAB.

Mine had turned yellow, so I figured no was as good as any time to do it. I pulled mine, divided up, added fertiliser and compost to the ground, then re-planted the rhizomes back where they were. Took no more than 1/2 an hour. I figure they naturally survive in the ground without being dug in...

Hi, I have 9 Mt Hood hop rhizomes for swap. I'd like to swap for other hop varieties. Also I'd like to keep it local for now. But if there is not enough interest here I will put them to the wider community. If BAD members do not have any hops, I am happy to give them away to help get you...

You've certainly got it worked out nikgr, keep the wife and the kids happy and you can brew forever. Well done.

Well done nikgr, welcome to the world of all grain BIAB brewing. Top work on getting the kids to mill the grain for you :)
