Hey guys, So I have a quick search on here and a fairly good google but i cant find anyone who hires jockey boxes in the capacity that i need. I need it for Saturday the 5th of September and would prefer one with 3 taps. I have found a company on the central coast that carries these but so far...

Hey guys, I've got two 23L batches that i'm blending before kegging and wondered if it was ok to use a non-food safe plastic container for the blending vessel? As its only going to be in there for a few minutes i thought it would be ok but would like some advice from the experts first...

Hey guys, Going to put down my first cider from whole apples tonight and i get home with all my apples and realise I dont have any yeast nutrient left. Also, have only one packet of yeast for fermenting the cider out. I do have the yeast slurry from a ginger beer that I produced and wondered...

Hey guys, So I put down my first ginger beer yesterday and have a few questions about the fermentation rate. Before I ask, let me state, I know... dont worry, it'll be fine. I'm not too worried about what will come out, it will alcoholic ginger something. Which I will probably drink. I'm just...

Hey guys, So... not stoked with myself. I'm very new to kegging. Two kegs carbed up at this point and my inexperience was obvious in what I just did. Thought I had read a lot about setting up a kegging system but didn't come across the idea of a non-return valve until ater I had all the other...

Hey guys, So I'm planning an IRA for my next brew (4th all-grain on the 3V) and would like some suggestions for the development of the recipe. The inspiration for this brew is the Mt. Goat Rare Breed IRA. I'm not looking for a clone but something along those lines... Anyway, here's where I'm...

Hey Guys, I've been working at the Australian Hotel in the Rocks, Sydney for most of this year. Been great for expanding my knowledge of Australian craft beer offerings. Anyway, the pub is gearing up for its 10th annual, multi-day Beerfest Event in mid-october and have the organisers have...

Hey guys, I haven't posted in a long time as I haven't had a brew on for just as long (sad i know), however i thought i could tap the brain trust to help me find a food matched beer to sell at my pub. Any suggestions for a craft brew (preferably hard to find in sydney) that has galaxy hops as...

Hey Guys, Got a question for those of you with converted chest freezers... Some models are squared off at the panel joins others have rounded corners. The one I'm about to work on is rounded and so my question is, how have people with rounded corner models added timber collars to their...

Got a question related to home kegging so this thread may belong elsewhere but to solve my problem i reckon i'll need some gear so... I have a friend who is a GM at a Sydney pub and he has offered to order me commercial size bottles of CO2 that i can store in their cellar (one at a time, not a...

hey guys, i've done a quick search and read some discussion on the topic. From what i've read, fitting commercial gear with home brew kegging set ups is ok as long as you use above bar stuff (e.g. fonts, tap, handles etc.). so i'm about to purchase a kegmaster series 3 for my first steps into...

Hey guys, just arrived on the goldie for a few days with for the father-in-law's 60th and all they have stocked is carlton dry!!! Now each to his own but this 'beer' tastes like weak puma piss to me and they wont let me go out and get something else. Anyone got advice as to a bottlo i can go...

hey guys, i know alot of people have built one tier, two tier and even three tier 3v systems (pumps, as well as gravity fed), using new and used dexion slotted angle. my advice for people considering using angle for gravity fed designs that feature shelves coming off a central pillar... a la #...

been reading some old posts and have seen plenty of brew rig designs made with slotted angle but pretty much all single tier or if multiple tier, made from separate shelves. i would like my rig to be a one stand brew sculpture. space is an issue. and i just like 'em that way too. anyone...

hey guys, just watched a video (USA) where a guys made a tight coil out of thin galvanized steel wire, then pushed it in to his stainless steel braid to stop the braid collapsing under weight of grain and water. seems good in principle but the galvanized steel option seems a bit risky. or are...

so i've just finished work pouring megaswill for the masses... whats your excuse?

it's taken me five weeks to get as far as having a mash tun and two full converted kegs for a 3v, gravity system (albeit without any research prior as to sourcing materials) and will it will be at least that long again until i break it in... I'm not into lifting hot, full kegs and splashing hot...

Hey Guys, does anyone have pics of how they have attached their compression fittings to weldless, keggle conversions? i'm new to plumbing, but it appears to me that i have left out an item from my ordering (a F/F 1/2 inch joiner piece?). This is what i have on the inside of my keggle wall...

hey guys, this may not be the best place for this topic but anyway... when i finally have my rig up and running i would like to make a mash paddle from timber sourced from my family property. far and away, the most common fallen timber available there is some sort of gum (mostly river gum)...
