It's a copper tub, but it looks like it has something like a nickel coating on the inside.

This is going to the metal recyclers this weekend. If you want it, make an offer...

Hi Brewhounds I have an old Malleys Gas-fired copper which I pulled out during a recent renovation. It has the gas ring in the base, and was set up for natural gas. It needs a clean up, and probably a bit of TLC before you can use it. $75 bucks or best offer.. Also have an inversion chiller...

Sorry for slow reply Dave, been away... It's too late in the season now, and the hops are growing madly (if not already budding). I wouldn't be doing you any favours trying to send you any now. Best time to get them is around June, that way you get the 'dormant' rhizomes which will survive...

Thanks Clickeral - hope they go well..let me know if there are any problems.. I'll have to pull out of any new sales now though - just found out today that I'll have to be away for a couple of weeks and the little demons are looking ready to shoot. I'll get into them earlier next year!!

Hi Brewers, I have a few of each of these rhizomes available for sale in Victoria. More Cascade and Chinook than the others, and only a few Williamettes. $10 per rhizome plus postage - VIC, SA and NSW only. Postage is $10 for up to 3 per pack, $15 for 4 to 10 per pack Can't mail them to Tas or...

Update on Replies from state quarantine departments: - still waiting for Tassie. - WA is a 'no' at the moment (sending from Victoria) due to the presence of potato cyst nematode in Victoria which can apparently be transported in corms and bulbs. BB

Thanks for the good responses. I'll dig up and separate over the weekend and get back to each person individually.. Just for future reference: This relates to mailing Hops Rhizomes from Victoria to other states. Have done some actual checking with the Quarantine sections in each state, and I...

Hi Brewing Tragics, I will have some rhizomes dug up over the weekend and available early next week. Not sure how many yet, but there are 4 large (600mm) pots of each of the Cascade, Chinook and Williamette, and 2 large pots of the Pride of Ringwood and Tetnang. Any interest, let me know... $10...

A bit delayed, but I just got back from being away....Did you guys get your Williamettes? I have 4 x third year Williamette crowns which I'll be digging up next week to separate - should be a few nodes available from each. If its of any interest, I also have 4 x Chinook, 4 x Cascade, 1 x Pride...

Hi Dave, Rhizomes arrived today - magnificent specimens!!! They are already in their large pots, read for take-off.. Thanks again, Beerburglar!

Hi Musc, I'll take a POR and the Tettnang if they're still there.. Beerburglar..

Hi Ian, Can't recall the actual recipe - I put it together with the guy from a LHBS in Richmond (can I say who?), but it started with the Mangrove jack white pack of Blonde Lager, added a can of LME, boiled some crushed grain (that's the tricky bit - I can't recall what grain it was...), and...

Just a follow up - have managed to drink the entire batch - it turned out better than the 'real thing'... Thanks to all for the help and humour... To paraphrase Wyane - was Beer, Was Good! BBR

Thanks Glen - I'll keep on with it, and see if it ferments OK, and if it tastes OK - I've choked down some pretty ordinary beers over the years, this one can only be so 'drinkable'... I may be panicking over nothing - as Charst says, it may just turn out to be a more bitter brew. BBR

Thankfully not the yeast!! just the extract bag...meo dumbo!! ;)

Only a couple of minutes before I realised. The 'bag' I am talking about has Malt extract, Barley Extract, Caramel, Hop Extract, and dried brewing yeast. You steep some crushed grain, strain, then boil up the liquor, add a can of light malt extract to it, 250gm of wheat malt, add hops, boil 2...

Happily brewing a replica J.SquireGolden Ale kit....After carefully reading the instructions, I think I may have done the new brew in... For some reason, probably old age and thirst related, I tipped the Mangrove Jack Blonde Lager pouch into the saucepan when I was boiling up the sugars and...

Just drinking stubby number 3 from first brew now, 3 weeks after bottling. I thought it was Cascade, supplied with the fermenter kit, followed the instruction pretty closely....what is it with the apple flavour? Tried the first one last week, after 2 weeks in the bottle...pretty ordinary, not...
