    Re-fermenting An Ordinary Beer

    I attempted to make a coffee porter a little while back that turned out to be quite disappointing. My efficiency was terrible due to an ordinary crush on my part (using a food processor) and the beer came out weak and thin tasting - nowhere near what I was trying for. Can I recycle this brew...

    Measuring Abv Of Eis Brew

    As the topic says, how can we do this as homebrewers? Has anyone done it with any success? I have accidentally made an Eisbock when lagering a bock I made a while ago - I let it thaw out to a regular bock - but I certainly could have removed a fair amount of ice if I wanted to.

    Cock Ale... As In Chicken!

    One of the recent Home brew mags had an article on an old english ale recipe which included a cooked chook amongst its ingredients.

    Hey guys - just wanted to know who refills CO2 bottles in Canberra? I have come by a cylinder that currently has some residual nitrogen in it, and want to know if there is anyone that will purge and refill it.
