Ok so my fire sale continues.... I have the following items for sale, some can be posted others will need picking up. 2x high pressure filter housings (one with John Guest fittings) and one new filter cartridge: $100 (these can be posted) I can split this if you just want to get the one, pm...

Ok due to study commitments I haven't brewed in years so I figure the keggerator might as well find a new and more appreciative home. The fridge is a ~500L Whirlpool "Lifestyle" single door unit. Runs well and is very clean, has only recently been switched off. Taps (two of) are Perlick...

Anyone ever used Bunya nuts in an AG porter (or any other beer for that matter?), they are 40% starch, so after cooking and pulping could just be added to the mash. As I alluded to in the topic tittle I'm thinking of doing a porter as they're quite a distinct flavour which I feel would need a...

Ok so started brewing a Berliner Weisse yesterday (no-chill) and after smacking the pack and leaving it all day to do it's thing I get ready to step it up to 2L and notice that the pack hadn't swelled. So checked the pack date (30th June) and and the fridge's temp log (pc controlled fridge) pack...

Ok, so there would seem to be enough takers for another grain bulk buy. So to kick things off please put your name and grain want(s) below so we can start to build a list and so get a better idea of numbers. <pending Dane's approval and all, that is!> 1.Thomas J: BB Ale, BB Caramalt and...

What more do I need to say? So now I'm in the market for a new one, any leads? I'd prefer not to have to make one! :D

Ok, so I'm building a kegging setup for my Bro-in-law and I was thinking of going with a sodastream gas bottle as they are easy to get and get refilled, and as his setup will be dispensing only they should last a few kegs. So today I went and had a sqiz at the sodastream website and found that...

Ok, so the plan was to do a Belgian beer tasting and then use the yeast slurry from the bottles to build a starter for a Belgian triple, but things haven't quite gone to plan.... The tasting went great, everyone loved the beers, and a small vote was taken to decide on a the style of the triple...

Ok I have two surplus to requirements mains pressure rated water filter housings (they take the standard 10" cartridges) $50 each plus postage. "top" view. "side" view. They are similar to these from our sponsor. PM me for further details etc.

Ok, so would there be any interest in some 300L wine barrels? I have access to 3 (might be one more, don't know yet) that are about to be retired from service as wine barrels. These would make great bar supports or could, with a bit of work, be cleaned and reused if you make that sort of volume...

OK, so I'm sort of working out the requirements to set up my brother in law with a small keg setup, sister dearest thinks a 6 keg freezer is quote "a very bad idea", so I get to keep my spare chest freezer for my own setup. So if anyone has a suitable bar fridge kicking around on the north side...

I know it's probably a dumb question, but can I sub those two for each other? Their ECB rating is close so colour variance shouldn't be a problem, but will the contribute similar characters flavour wise? Heck are they the same (gut feeling is no, but I've been lied to by my gut before!) malt...

Ok, so I switched from my old 3/4cup hopper mill (hand cranked coffee mill) to a Marga Mill and now my brew is so strong (4.89kgs grain) that I got a pre boil gravity of 1.077 in 24L of wort, so to get to what I wanted I had to add 15L of water! Now I don't mind getting near twice the beer for...

Ok, so after reading some glowing reports on how GREAT Sorachi Ace is I went and bought 113g (4oz) of it, '09 too, so I can give it a try. What I do know about it is that it's known for the huge lemon/citrus hit it gives to beer. What I haven't found is whether this hit is from late hoping or...

Ok so I was down at my local produce place by some mash for the chooks and mentioned rice hulls more or less just to get an idea of the going rate more than anything else. So anyway it works out at $0.83/kg if I buy a whole bale, it was at this point that I saw the flaw in my cunning plan, a...

Ok so I have to fund my malt requirements for the up coming ESB beer comp, and well as I have a sh1t load of James Squire, Little Creatures, and Matilda Bay bottles (and about 3 cases of Euro trash green 330ml ones if you're a masochist), I figure about 10 cases should cover my malt requirements...

OK, so I ended up with twice the amount of rye that I ordered, soooo as I'm doing a lager this week anyway I thought I might just add a bit for complexity's sake. I know it can be done from a purely technical stand point, but what I was wondering is just what effect this will have on my lager...
