Well I finally got around to putting down my brew yesterday. I went with 2 X Cans of LME 300g Dextrose and my hops additons were: 12g @ 45 Mins 15g @ 20 Mins 15g @ flameout That gave me an IBC of 32 i think OG was 1044 and is happily bubbling away in my Laundry right now :) Seeing as I was...

No I haven't had a chance yet I get home on the 31st and was just going to do a basic extract recipe and see how it tasted and maybe work from there :icon_cheers:

Nahh it would seem his courier is willing to do it at a decent price now

Cheers for the advice guys. Seeing as I have two brews on the ferment I might try a little bit of each. I will dry hop one in keg with a hop sock and charge it whilst i am away. The other I will rack dry hop and CC for the four weeks and condition, once I get home I will force carb it. Now I...

Just a quick update Nath I am sure you haven't lost any sleep over it but have balanced the system and am now drinking perfect beer from my kegerator. :D , deadset there is nothing better in this world than tasty beer on tap in your house :D

I was a bit worried as I am going to dry hop both of them will that screw things up with hop flowers and pellets in the kegs?

Yep I have two cubes I can put them in so if I leave them in the fridge for the 4 weeks then force carb them when I get back will they be good to go???

I have just put down two versions of Dr Smurtos Golden Ale. But have just been given the call from work that I will be going back to work early. I will be home to finish my fermentation period but will be going about 2 days into the racking cold crashing time. Now my question is how long can I...

No worries Nath no offense taken. I jumped on here when I was having the dramas with the forced carbonation and a friend told me that my beer line was too short that was my main reasoning for changing it out. And yeah I probably did run into it like a bull at a gate but that seems to be how I do...

Cancel my last I have found it ha ha. I will spend the next couple of days trying to balance my system and let you all know how I go. :icon_cheers: Thanks to everyone that has commented.

Okay I may have had too many beers already today but I can't find a spreadsheet that works in mm what is 5mm line in inches?? Yep I am certainly struggling today :D I have tried the search function and the Wiki article is in 3/16 and such damn my metric teachings at school.

Yeah I did use the normal amount that I would use for bottling. Can I save this beer? :unsure:

Okay I got a kegging system and had a go at force carbonating kegs and had no end of dramas. So I figured I would naturally carbonate my last keg and see how that went. I made Tony's LCBA clone smelt beautiful and racked it, CC it for a week then bulk primed and banged it into a keg left it for...

Sorry if this is already mentioned somewhere in the discussion, I read this about a week ago and can't remember if it was. Can you do this with a dry yeast lets say a US05? Sorry again if it was mentioned. Cheers Damien

Cheers thats exactly what I wanted to know.

Okay bare with me for I think I am about to make an idiot of myself. I have been salivating reading 28, yep all 28 pages :D. But I am confused I have done some K & K and some Extract brews but I have never used Caralmalt as is used in the Recipe. I am going to have a go at making the kit version...

Yep Fodder the 4.5 Litre bottles seen in this attatchment below. It seems perfect for what I want, if you say the other packs they make up there are good I might have to give it a go. :)

I have to head into the TWOC store in Bibra Lakes when I get home. I am only home for a short time so I would like to put down a quick easy beer before I head back off to work. Just wondering if anyone has tried any of the EzyBrew kits there? Looking at trying either the Little Creatures Pale...
