    Source of embroidered brewery logos in Aus ?

    Anyone know of a source of these brewery logo patches (not limited to these brands specifically)? So far as I can see, no Aus breweries produce any, and the ones from US sellers have ridiculous shipping costs for just a few bits of fabric. Cheers in advance, Dan

    Fermaid O - 100g lots - E.Melbourne

    This one is a micro bulk buy ! After some research, I'm looking to buy some Fermaid O for a few meads I have planned. I have a quote from IBrew for $115 for a kilo plus $10.80 for Fastway postage. I don't need all of it, so I'm looking to sell off 700g in 100g lots at cost. So, $12.60 for...

    Free brand new Coopers fermenters x 3 - E.Melb

    I bought 3 kits on clearance, basically just for the PET bottles and LME (for yeast starters). Thought I'd use the fermenters for cider or mead, but they're just taking up space. Free to a good home (I do like beer though, if you're feeling generous) PM me. Cheers, Dan

    Beekeeping-Discussion, pics, tips and tricks.

    There's growing interest in the role bees play in our lives, and rightly so. Not just from the perspective of the honey they can provide us with, but also their importance in ensuring crop success, from backyard vege patches up to commercial operations. So, this is the thread for all things...

    Hopwater- possible alternative mixer ?

    http://drinkhopwater.net Anyone had this when visiting the US ? Or has anyone dabbled with hopping water and carbonating to use as a tonic water alternative ? I just stumbled across the site while googling IBUs of tonic water. There's no real focus of this post, I just thought it was mildly...

    Ringwood, Firehouse/St Florian's

    I may be a little slow off the mark here, but The Firehouse's bar, St Florian, is pretty good now. I haven't been since they expanded and built a dedicated bar area out the back/down the side. They've always been good for food and carried a few decent bottles, but they now have 6 (I think)...

    Good restaurants with good beer lists -Melbourne

    I've had a quick look through the forum and couldn't find anything specifically on this topic. Criteria has to be focussed on good food (to keep her happy) but also include something other than your bog-standard "5 choices of basically the same shit beer" beer menu. I'm thinking maybe a thread...

    Male Quick Release/female 1/2in Bsp

    Hi all, I'm looking for one of the above but having no luck. Maybe there's a better way...I'm open to suggestions.
