Anyone got any ideas of what kind of yeast you would use to make an old traditional australian bitter ale? Just reading about them in the AABC style guidelines, sounds interesting. Apparently the WLP 009 is not appropriate.

Ok, please no judging becasue I think i have made a big mistake. I mashed up an octoberfest style wort the other day, when I checked the specific gravity at room air temp it came in under my aimed SG. In my (drunken) panic I added some plain sugar and some corn maize from the pantry to up the...

I am a nurse and they come sterile, trust me. As long as they are unopened you can garauntee they are sterile. Good idea, BTW, i never even thought of it. Hospital equipment is awesome for brewing. Cheers.

Gonna make this on Monday, will post the results eventually

Thanks guys, nice one about constricting the grain also. My old nylon one was sorta small but could hold all the grains, man I'm gonna need a big one to fit my 40Litre pot.

Just finding out some of the possible causes of low OG with BIAB as I have had some low OG's since switching the bags I use for BIAB. I used to use a nylon bag but since switching to 2 smaller bags made of that cheesecloth stuff.... ahhhh can't remember the name right now, oh yeah muslin or...

Thanks guys, I alrerady knkow which of the two lines it is that is leaking. But yeah, couldn't figure out how to get any tools into the tiny gap, so will try and get those taps loose tomorrow as I have started holidays! Is it just me or is kegging ways harder than actually making the beer. Most...

OK, thanks man, got the top off....... now what? Like how do I disconnect beer lines if I need to, how do I fix leaks? I reckon it's only one of the beer lines that is leaking as I had just hooked up a keg to the sceond line.

Just another pic to explain my situation

Beer is coming out somewhere within my beer tower on top of my kegking kegerator. Thing is I don't know how to get inside the tower to check out exactly what is the problem. I just hooked the thing up the way I got it, and have never actually taken the tower apart. Its strange though because...

Yeah thanks guys, anxiety gone. But I will continue to take great care re oxidation once the fermentation has completed. Now onto my next areas of improvement....... hmmmm. Also I am way more happy with my immersion chiller now that I feel I can use it with confidence.

Quick question and am not sure if it's a dumb one but.... With an immersion chiller, like, when you dip in into the bot and the rest, the whole wort would be exposed to the air and still be hot and warm whilst it is cooling, lets say the colling takes an hour... is this enough time to get really...

Who is the AHB member? I would like to ask 'em a few questions. 100-300L sounds like a nice small place to start.

Early in the morning when my mind wasn't at it's best I gt up and added finings to 2 of my brews. They were the finings from Big W in the orange packet. I believe I have made 2 mistakes. First thing, I forgot to mix the finings with warm water, I've read tonight that you are meant to do this...

Thanks guys, I need to buy new gas to check the seals again, I did find that the leak was more when the tube was bent more, hard to explian. In other words I agree with Jace, hopefully this is the problem and it will work out, if I find I can't fix the leak I will def call the seller. Damn...

Hooked up my keg setup from keg king, it came with the push-in type connection for the regulator to connect the gas lines .<br>Anyways, I can't fix my air leaks (marked in the picture), I had lost a whole bottle of CO2 before I even knew I had a leak. There are no other leaks, the leak is in the...

Hi guys, have recently purchased a kegerator and setup from keg king. It came with the push-in regulator. After hooking everything up and force carbonating my kegs, I hooked everything up and poured some great tasting beers that were pretty well carbonated for my first time and everything was...

Where it says connectors, do u just split the wire into two there, or is there some kinda special thing that needs to be done. I have connected up my stc 1000 but it says EE and is not controlling my fridge.
