    Fire extinguisher CO2 refills in Melbourne

    I've had a search for this but the answers are at least a few years old so I thought I'd ask again.. I have a 5kg converted fire extinguisher for a CO2 cylinder. I know not everyone refills these so I'm wondering where people get these filled in Melbourne. I used to go to a safety engineering...

    Fridge defrost heater for temp control

    I've got an old fridge (no freezer compartment) that I'm converting into a fermenting fridge. I was pulling out the thermostat/relay junk from inside and realised that there is a heating coil that runs underneath the evaporator plate. I'm wondering if there's any reason why I shouldn't wire...

    Secondhand Fridge Shops in Melbourne

    I'm chasing a secondhand fridge for fermenting, and looking for a well-stocked shop that I can go and browse to find something that suits my needs. I know there are shitloads of fridges on Gumtree but I'm after a no-freezer one which are harder to find. There are a bunch of places that come up...

    Chemical Taste Plaguing My Brewery

    I have just had to turf out another batch of beer due to a off flavour that keeps appearing in almost every batch I've brewed lately, bringing the total to well over 100L down the drain. I did start http://aussiehomebrewer.com/topic/75226-astringency-from-fermenter-scum/]another topic[/url]...

    Astringency from Fermenter Scum?

    My last few batches of beer have had a seriously unpleasant dirty astringency to them. I've been racking my brain trying to work out why, and this is the best I can come up with. These are all double-batch brews and for one of them, one fermentor made it through unscathed while the other...

    Anyone in Perth want stuff from Brewhardware.com?

    I need a replacement sight glass because I cracked my current one, but US$32 shipping for a 15 buck tube doesn't seem justified. Just putting this out there to see if there's anyone else who wants some stuff and is keen to split postage. http://www.brewhardware.com/ I didn't feel like this...

    "Mash" Your Potatoes

    http://modernistcuisine.com/recipes/diastatic-potato-puree/ This recipe breaks down the starch in potatoes using the diastatic power of malt. Most of the comments say it's too sweet (not surprising), but pretty interesting nonetheless.

    Heating Element Toasted My Brewery

    I've been using an over-the-side element with a temperature controller for my HLT, and it's been good for 25 brews or so. Last brew, I came out and saw that the temperature controller wasn't working. I tried to unplug the control panel from the extension cord and realised that the connection...

    Caliente

    MOD: Description inserted by Lord Raja Goomba I, to ensure descriptions appear in first post, with discussion below. Original post as below: I know a few of us bought some Caliente from YVH a while back, anyone got any feedback on them? Can't seem to turn up a lot of info with a search.

    Two Beers, Two Weeks..

    Okay, so we're hosting a mate's birthday party in a couple of weeks and hope to have all four taps on the keezer going. One of the beers (American wheat) turned out to be a complete failure due to an accident with Brewbrite that I'd rather not talk about, which is documented in another thread...

    Brewbrite Misadventure

    So things were getting a little hectic nearing the end of the boil last night due to severe disorganisation. In the middle of setting up the chiller and weighing flameout hops I remembered I had forgotten to prepare some Brewbrite, so I grabbed the container and went to give it a quick sprinkle...
