Bloody Hell! Were in the process of finishing off the construction of a house in Royalla and moving in, and weve just got the results of the tank water quality tests. Here they are: Ca+2 = 0.4 mg/L Mg +2 = not detected (<0.1 gm/L) HCO3-1 < 2 mg/L Cl-1 <1 mg /L Na+1 = 0.4 mg/L SO4-2 =...

I apologise for the long thread, but to be fair to Brewersdiscount, I felt I needed to include all correspondance. If it's a bit long for you, just scroll the the end, and read the last quote. OK had a pretty shocking experience with Brewersdiscount. I include all our correspondence. You can...

When I first started using these forums, I asked a lot of the standard newbie questions which prompted the standard "do a search on..." response. Well, I have now come of age. Despite still being a relative AG brewing newbie, I reckon I am learning this forum's etiquette at a great rate. So...

OK - here's a good one... I have just found a bloody ant in the starter that I have been so meticulous in keeping sanitised! I have racked my brain about how it got there. I can only assume that the ant was having smoko in the pot when I grabbed it from our cupboard and put it on the stove...

Gday everyone, I am in the process of designing my first all-grain system after seeing some great examples in action (thanks Stagger, Fatboy). I am keen to get a HERMS system going, although this is one thing that I haven't seen operating, so I am running a little bit blind. I really like the...

After having some Chimay bleu at the local Belgian pub, I can't stop thinking about how to brew the stuff. After doing a search on this site, I found that quite a few people were thinking about brewing one (trough lolly, for example). These posts happened earlier in the year. HOW DID THEY GO...
