    I have a number of rhizomes to sell and 4 big crowns. Would prefer pick-up from NE suburbs of Melbourne, but can post at your expense. From what I've read, posting to Tas and WA is pretty tricky so I'll have to exclude those states, sorry. There's three varieties available: Cascade Unknown...

    Anyone with a grain mill in Melbourne NE suburbs? Need an urgent crush!

    Is there anyone in the NE suburbs of Melbourne who would kindly let me run about 4 kgs through their grain mill? Mine just clapped out before a brew, and alas there are no LHBS locally that are open. I'll happily pass on a few beers in exchange. I'm in Greensborough. Fingers crossed!

    Where is the stout head?

    Hey fellas, With winter coming up quickly, I want to brew a nice toasty stout to keep me warm and happy! Last year I brewed an oatmeal stout am very happy with the flavor (could be a bit toastier though), the beer holds no head. Lasts about 10 seconds. I did some reading and a few people said...

    Hello, I'm looking to get a 60cm stainless steel drip tray from Keg King, but before I spend the doubloons I thought I'd see if anyone wants to get rid of one. They're not cheap new and I'm on a budget with my Keezer. Based in Melbourne. Cheers, Mat Example...

    WLP001 temp spike

    Helloooo, I've got a pale ale fermenting with WLP001 right now in my fermenting fridge. I pitched and put it in at about 10:30 last night. I accidentally had the temp controller set to 77℃!! I checked at 7am and it was fermenting like mad at 27℃. I hear with a heat pad in there (not touching...

    New shanks don't fit!

    I'm building a keezer and today went to install my taps. I have 2 brumby style taps that were used on a tower on my old kegerator. Thanks to the generosity of malt junkie I now have some new shanks so I can mount it to the keezer collar. Only issue is, they don't fit for a few reasons. The new...

    WANTED - Long shanks for taps

    I have two brumby style taps, and am building a keezer following the death of my home made kegerator. Looks like the short shanks on the taps are too small to penetrate the keezer wall. Before I go buy replacement shanks, thought I'd test the market here.

    Are these hops?

    I'm making some changes in my veggie garden and while preparing soil I dug around looking for some rhizomes I planted last year. I found one thing that appears to be the crown, and also a couple of other rhizomy looking doovies. There is a lot of oxalis in that same area that I've been ripping...

    Wild Hops

    In a few weeks I'm going to Forrest in the Otways for a mountainbiking weekend with some mates. I've read online and in a few posts here that there are wild hops growing around the area, most likely from the local hop industry a century ago. I'm very interested in grabbing a few...

    Dead kegerator :(

    The other night I was about to keg two brews and when I opened the lid of my home made kegerator I saw that it was very warm. It's a freezer with an STC1000 replacing the thermostat. I'm not sure what the issue is, but I suspect the compressor has shat its dacks. The unit is getting power, and...

    Free bottles

    I'm about to do a big shed cleanup and plan to get rid of some bottles. I've got way too many. They will mostly be James Squire stubbies. Some might need a good clean. Before I bin them, anyone interested? I'll confirm numbers later today. Located in Greensborough, Melbourne.
