Brewed a 100% Golden Promise ale today and thought I would give caramelization a go. I have done a straight 100% GP batch before and was quite underwhelmed with the result, it was so very very pale (barely straw coloured) insipid and really lacking in flavour. So today I took 10L of the first...

As the mercury climbs past 35.1C towards 40C Adelaide finds itself the unenviable new record holder of the longest ever heatwave with the most consecutive days over 35C, <_< a reoord previously held by Perth back in 1988. As I write I suspect the "T shirts" are already being printed "I...

I have a recipe for a California common (Steam Beer) that includes 250g of Victory Malt. I did a search on this site and as far as I can tell I can substitute the Victory malt with Amber malt, but at a reduced amount because the victory is far more subtle in flavour and then increase the base...

Gave the new 70L pot and burner a run yesterday, up and till now I have been doing split boils which makes quite a long brew day :( Took me the best part of 60 min to get the Turkey burner to stay alight :angry: in the end it was adjusting the air flow plate to nearly closed that stopped the...

Ok... I have got myself a 70L SS pot (thanks G&G) I have been searching past threads on installing fittings but want to clarify a few things. As far as I can tell some guys weld a fitting to take a ball valve others use a lock nut system. Can anyone advise me on the lock nut system ie what...

G,day all! I will be finalising an order from G&G early this week. 1 SS 70L pot coming my way :beerbang: :beer: But which burner? I can either get the Turkey Burner or the Mongolian burner, at this stage I am leaning toward the Mongolian mainly because of the noise facter which I brought...

I am looking at getting a burner and I realize that most guys are going for the nasa. I would happily buy one, but one big factor will be the amount of " noise" it makes! I have a good sized backyard, but with three units down one side and a sub divided on the other you cant walk out the back...

I have a couple of yeast statrters in the fridge split from an original starter made 4wks ago. It looks like they have comtinued to grow very slowly and in order to preserve them longer could I tip out most of the spent malt and top up with cool boiled water?

Done 2 apa's in the last few weeks and mashed 95% ale and pils malt and 5% caramunich. They are both as clear as MUD! I used to mash partials up to 4.5kilos and use a bucket in bucket method, this time I mashed 6 kilos the same way thats the only difference.I always mash for 90 min and do an...

Does anyone know what yeast they use in their pale ale? (not the hightail ale) I had heard it was the 1332 North West Ale yeast, can anyone confirm this?

Hi, this is my first time posting on this forum though I have been a long time reader. I presently do not have the equipment to do full boils, so having recently done 2 all grain brews I split the boil into 2 pots and did it on the kitchen stove and it workrd quite successfully. What I would...
