For those of us who feel that as we get older, the years tend to go by too quickly. You know what I mean- wasn't the new millenium about 2 years ago? Wasn't John Howard the Treasurer not too long ago. Reagans no longer President? Thatcher no longer there? That short arse nephew I used to teach...

Hi all, Am having trouble with the base of one of my kegs leaving black marks on everything it touches, especially when I'm cleaning it. Does anybody know how to stabilise the rubber? That's assuming it's rubber of course.

Morning all and happy new year. I've left myself short on kegs due to Christmas and have thirsty friends over tonight and I only have a 3/4 full keg which will probably go early. My question is: is there a downside if I keg a brew this morning that probably has another day to go? I'd hate for...

Whilst not in the same league as the Exxon Valdez, I had a spill disaster last night. Had a mate over after watching my 11 yo son play his 1st night game of footy and were jut settling in and on our 3rd glass of a new batch. Went back to the fridge to refill and found that the carpet was a bit...

Hi all, I've recently set up a keg system with bar fridge and the 18 litre Coke kegs and the first keg went fairly well except for too much froth on pouring, I put it down to not having pulled a beer from a tap for many years and thought the technique would improve in time and did a bit as the...

Having now bottled 5 brews with a 6th waiting, I'm finding that bottling is a time consuming exercise and beause of limited free time it's difficult to continue this and my kids who've been helping me are finding the novelty is wearing off. So, the alternative is probably to look at kegging. My...
