Hi everyone, After almost tearing my hair out (whats left of it anyway) I have decided to post on here for some advice. I have recently made a keggle and for some reason i cant get my dip tube to work. I have a compression fitting from craftbrewer (although im not 100% sure which way the...

Hi everyone, So this weekend im looking to do my second BIAB in my Keggle and have tried to find something that will allow me to use all my citra. Some reading suggested a Zombie Dust clone would be a good road to travel - although i havent ever tasted it. Here is a recipe i have put together...

I'm looking at conducting my second BIAB this weekend and after putting down Dr's Golden Ale without issues, i am looking to move onto replicating a house favorite. From the Holegate website, i can see that the hop profile consists of NZ Selson Sauvin, Amarillo and Citra whilst the base malt is...

Im selling a 4 way gas manifold. Brand new - still in the plastic - although i removed it to take the photo and can put it back in the plastic again if you would like :P Purchased when i was making my beer fridge however ended up only using 2 kegs and a JG splitter. Similar to the G&G...

Hi everyone, I have decided to finally move into AG brewing and after looking at various pots and sizes i have decided to start with a Keggle. Does anyone have a keggle or 50L keg they want to sell? I thought i would ask here first before "acquiring" one on my own. Werribee or Geelong area...

Hi everyone, after much reading and trolling I am yet to decide what the "best" 50L pot is and where it can be purchased from. I know that the best value 70L pot is from Ross however this is too big for my needs ATM. Does anyone know where i can buy a cheap 50L pot than i can install an...

Hi everyone, after completing my beer fridge and now having well over 20 brews under my belt I'm going to build a e-BIAB setup using a 70lt pot (I'm thinking CB at this stage but please feel free to suggest other options). Element wise I'm thinking maybe the NEW kegking element (as its simple...

Hi everyone, i know there is already a thread (or two) on this subject and i have previously read them which is why i am now in this situation. I purchased 2 x 9lt Keg King Kegs (the Chinese ones) and my intention was to fit these inside an esky and with 2 taps mounted on the front of the esky...

Hi everyone, I am exploring some potential camping setups and some options include a 23l keg. I have checked Brew Callar and they no longer stock this product and ebay is dry. I know Beer Belly sell them however they are VERY expensive. Does anyone have one they want to part with for a more...

Hi everyone, I have converted an old fridge into a kegerator and have come to the point where i need to purchase Co2. My question is this: What is a SAFE limit of Co2 to have in the home so if a leak should occur, kids / pets are not put at risk? I remember reading on the KegKing website that...

I have a function rapidly approaching and due to brewing time contraints I was thinking of buying some fresh wort kits from Ross @ Craftbrewer, fermenting and serving to my guests. I know they have won various awards however has anyone here tried the wort kits from Ross and if so can you...

I am currently trying to decide if i want boring but classic tap handles for my Perlicks, or if i should venture down the alternate handle route. I know some people LOVE their handles so this might be a good thread for people to post some pics. BlackRat.

Hi everyone, I have recently purchased a new fridge and as a result, have decided to convert the now redundant fridge into a keg-orator. Knowing that this may have been on the cards, I have already purchased 3 x perlick flow control taps and 1 x perlick creamer tap - for stout. Although i am...

Just thought I would let everyone know that the Big W 19L pots are currently $12. BlackRat.

Hi everyone, I have done some reading on this however i still have 1 or 2 questions that im sure are very simple to answer. I currently have a LCPA clone sitting in my fermentor (18 deg for 2 weeks) and is coming up to botteling time. It has 2 packets of US-05 yeast inside it and i was...

Hi everyone, Although i do like to support my LHBS, i am starting to find their prices and limited range an issue. My question is; where is the best/quickest/cheapest place to purchase cans and liquid malt online? Some of the sponsors offer a limited range of kit beers, however there are...

I have recently purchased a kegking temp controller (link here) although mine is for heating AND cooling, however i cant work out how to set it to maintain the temp. I have a low temp value (between -45 and 10), a high temp value (between 0 and 120) a temp hysteresis, a delay, a temp...
