Hmm gettting a fridge isn't really an option for me so might do the AC thing and put a wet towel around the fermenter. That should get the temp down a fair bit.

Hey Mud Gecko, what yeasts, temperature and styles do you brew up here? I'm from NZ so am not used to brewing at these high temps. I just did an ozbrew kit (last one before grain) and it did come with some higher temp yeast but not sure what it is. Also I've just been closing off a room and...

Is Gryphon in Darwin or online?

Okay, thanks for that. I have had a look at a few places online but by the time you add postage it's cheaper to just buy locally except for the fact that the range up here is very small as you say and nothing has numbers or anything on them.

Thanks for the replys. Yeah it all comes in a bag for AU$29.99. The label on the malt says "Premium Malt - AMC5 - 2.2kg", the brew enhancer says "Brew Enhancer - S5" and the yeast says "Yeast Y1 - Ale". The instructions don't say to boil the wort like I thought they would. They just say to...

Hi everyone. I've just bought a TUBS Premium English Ale from OZBREW as a bit of a stepping stone between the Coopers kits and doing full grain beers. The kit came with a bag of liquid malt extract, a bag of brew enhancer, a packet of yeast and a bag of hops but no details of exactly whats in...
