Hi all, I think I already know the answer to this one, but thought it was worth putting out there for those who know better to tell me that its stupid. ;) So, I've been BIAB'ing for about a year now, with only 5 brews under my belt, mainly due to the fact that September saw the arrival of my...

Hi all, With my second all grain BIAB now in the fermenter for its second week (a Pacific Ale Clone) and the oncoming on Canberra "brisk" months, I thought I should try my hand at something a bit darker. A friend from Melbourne runs a coffee roasting company down on the Morning Peninsula, and...

[Pun absolutely intended] Having sold the idea of an STC-1000 to myself with the fact that I could use I to cook things sous-vide style, and after motivating a colleague who has no interest in homebrew enough that he bought a pre-wired unit and a rice cooker and tried it out before I got ever...

I guess its fitting that a few mates and I always referred to it as Can-o-beer-a. Imaginative, I know. But we also came up with Al-brewery for Albury, so its not the worst. Anyway, I just realised that I've been a member (or more or a lurker) here since 15 Nov 2010, and didn't even realise...
