Gah, I always forget that! On the Northern Beaches in Sydney.

My home brew kit that has been unused for a few years is now ready for a new home. Included; Mash tun cooler with stainless false floor, ball valve and thermometer 35L (roughly) commercial stainles boil pot (was $330 new) Wort chiller Water heater (2400W i think) several fermenters Palmers Home...

I bought this a while ago and have used it twice. I built the worlds worst hopper for it and I don't buy grain in bulk to warrant the use, I just buy grain cracked when I need it. So, its up for sale. Monster Mill MM2 with optional stainless rollers. If you bought this today and shipped it...

Wow, this was a great beer. Mines only been in the bottle for 2 weeks and I can't stop drinking it - I can't see it ageing very long. :( Definitely doing this again.

What size is the falsie?

The first mental image I had was somebody in a lot of pain. :( Ouchies.

Keen on prices for mill and over-the-side. PM'd.

Thanks Woodmole, I might just leave it as I have no dried extract anyway and its already 36hrs into the process.. :( It smells great still, hopefully thats an indication that it'll be ok.

Ok, so, one final question.... I have no dried malt on hand, but I *do* have a Country Brewer Brew Booster (500g Dextrose, 250g Light Malt, 250g Maltodextrin) - will that do? Thanks again.

Thanks everybody! Um... Not sure you'll want some... :D

Ok, so the yeast was pitched last night. :( Have I missed my shot? Haha! Nice one! Sounds as high tech as mine! Good to know its not the gear that makes a good brew.

Wow, some awesome help in here. Thanks guys! malt_shovel, great post - thank you! I left my sparge water in the tun for 15m during the first brew because I was doing the brew John Palmer had as 'your first all grain mash' and he suggested to do that. I'm not totally up on processes (if you...

Great, thank you!

Thanks guys, My concern with that burner is the 3 points on the top. One of my pots is an awfully cheap stainless thing with a super thin bottom and it would get pretty hammered by those points. I'd probably need to put something between them. cdbrown, thats a great idea about the stick or...

Hi Guys, Did my 2nd AG last night. Took some advice from my last thread (First AG, Not Quite To Plan) - cooled my samples down before checking gravity was the biggie, but my 2 mistakes were; 1. Perhaps not sparging long enough. Last time I left the sparge in the tun for ~15mins, last night I...

Bummer! He was probably only minutes before me! :angry: :lol: Good score! :)

I'll put 2nd dibs on the mill also if it can be shipped. Thanks.

It is, yep. But it has the same gravity range, surely it'd work?

I have a refractometer for my fish tank, I tried to use it for this last time but got odd readings and I'm now wondering if it was due to the high temp. Thanks Muscovy, I'll do that next time. Bummed that I have to wait a few weeks before brewing again, I need more bottles!

Thanks guys, do you just chill the sample to 20C or so?
