    Equipment For Sale ** FREE ** fermentation fridge. Pickup Melbourne inner north east.

    Free to a good home. This fridge served me well for many years as my main fermentation fridge. Has been sitting unused for a few years, so time to move it on. It could do with a bit of a clean, and there's superficial surface rust on the top, but it's functionally sound. Has a digital...

    Free Fridge - Melbourne inner North

    I have an old brewing fridge (Lemair) that needs a new home. It's not pretty, it's got a little rust on the door, but it works fine, and has served me well for many years. As I've removed the door-lining and all shelves etc. it's not really suitable for anything other than brewing, so I'd...

    Good source of stainless fittings & bits

    Also just received a butterfly valve from 2014online, and agree they're not the best quality, but probably OK for the occasional dumping of crud from the Chronical. I'm a little concerned that the internal valve seal is rubber, and not a more inert material like silicon or teflon. Is this pretty...

    International Retailer warnings - Poor Quality/Service

    Have also just received a bunch of stainless from 2014online with mixed results.The Butterfly valve ($59) has a quality body, but an after-market, loose-fitting locking mechanism. The valve itself works well,and the machining is first rate, but the internal seal is rubber, and not silicon or...

    Tradeflame 930ml Oxygen cylinder

    Excellent - problem solved :beer: I think I'll be going down this route when my current bottle of Bernzomatic runs out. I like the idea of being able to see the gas flow rate.

    Tradeflame 930ml Oxygen cylinder

    Excellent info Mattfos01 - I couldn't find any other posts listing "tradeflame", but obviously I didn't dig deap enough. So just to be sure, the regulator in your post #5 in the above thread you bought from eBay, and is the one that fits this new Tradeflame cylinder? I'm wondering if the one...

    Tradeflame 930ml Oxygen cylinder

    Yep, I'm using the same reg on the Bernzomatic... Unfortunately the bigger white cylinder (above) uses a smaller threaded outlet, which I pressume must be compatible with welding hoses / regulators. So I'm wondering how it would be possible to rig up a connection to the brass mini reg above?

    Most interesting AU/NZ Hops...other than Nelson Sauvin and Galaxy?

    Another vote for Riwaka. My best brew ever was an APA with Amarillo & Dsaaz (Riwaka), about 6 years ago, when you could still get it. I havn't seen it available to homebrewers for at least 4 years.

    Tradeflame 930ml Oxygen cylinder

    Was in Bunnings yesterday to buy an O2 cylinder (the usual 40gm red Bernzomatic disposable can), but could only find these newer white cylinders: At $50 a pop, they're not cheap, but for 110Ltrs (157gm) of oxygen, much better value than the red Bernzomatic cylinders (28Ltr / 40gm). So I'm...

    Comment by 'Hutch' in media 'New Kettle - pickup install'

    Another option is to upgrade to a 3-piece valve on the outside. The valve can be tightened into place with your elbow facing down, then the outer valve-handle section can be rotated by 90/180/270 degrees to put the handle in the upright position.

    Upright freezer near Kearns NSW. Could go for a bargain (cheap fermentation fridge), as the listing says it doesn't freeze (not an issue for ferm temps)...

    Big Goldings Rhizomes for sale (Melbourne)

    Have just dug up a heap of quality Goldings rhizomes, and offering them in large lots (too lazy to separate and sell individually). These grew brilliantly this year, but have simply outgrown the small garden bed I have them in. Wanting $15 each lot, plus delivery (500gm or 3kg sachel), or...

    Reptile heat pads

    +1. I use a 28W to control a standard 30Ltr HDPE fermenter in a fridge. Less concentrated heat than the heat-belt I used to use, and seems to keep a really steady temperature with suitable controller box. Easy to clean as well. I wrap mine around the fermenter with strap. Very gentle heating.
