Doofus me forgot to set the alarm to remind me to take the gas off the keg. I have been force carbonating my beers for ever and have never before done this! My usual is 40PSI for 36 hours in my 19lt cornie and it is perfect for my beers. It copped an extra 12 hrs of CO2 and is just like a foam...

Howdy I am wanting to make a White Chocolate Pale Ale but am unsure with regards to my process. I am a BIABer so my thoughts are to use my "standard" pale ale grain bill and add Monin White Chocolate syrup to the mix. I make my own white chocolate vodka using these syrups and they are awesome...

Hi I am putting a "Braubuska/mieser" recirculating type system together and wanted to know if there is a ratio in regard to malt pot to kettle volume? I have an idea for a design that I think should work. Cheers Joe

After reading the many threads on BIAB, I descided to take the bull by the horns and have a go! For my first all grain BIAB brew I have made a pilsner, FA Kikinda Pils. I purchased a Primus 60lt crab cooker. It's an aluminium Stock pot with a basket. I got it from Outback Adventures...

Hi All I wish to setup a 1V RIMS system and have a couple of questions in regard to it. I intend to use a 60lt pot (400 x 400 mm) with a 30lt pot (350dia x 370mm h) as the malt pipe/grain pot. My thoughts were to have a central pipe in the 60lt pot attached to a pipe in the center of the 30lt...

Hi I had a couple of Ballast point Big Eye stubbies with my partners son and really liked it. Did a google for an idea on the hops and came up trumps on the Ballast point web site. Here is what I plan to put down using extract. Was thinking of dry hopping the keg using a suspeneded tea ball...

Hi all, My first brew in my conical fermenter is under way. I pitched the yeast starter and it came to life, bubbling away through the air lock for the first 4 days. At day 5 I fitted my pressure relief valve to seal the fermenter and let the pressure build up to 5 PSI. It has been holding...

Hi All. I am wanting to know if there is a conversion for grains out there? If a recipe calls for say American 2 row, what could be used in its place? I am using brew mate for BIAB method and cant source some of the grains. Cheers

Thought that I would share my build of a 30 lt conical fermenter. I purchased a 30 lt cone bottom tank from Rotamold WA. It has 4 x mounting bolts, a sealed lid, a 25mm threaded hole in the base and can be pressuriseed to aprox 10 PSI. The goal was to have as few penetrations to the fermenter...

Hi All I am wishing to fit 2 x liquid and 1 x gas posts onto my fermenter. I was wondering if anyone knows of a fitting that would allow me to fit these. I imagine it would be a male thread like a small bulkhead fitting that would take the dip tubes and then screw the gas/liquid post to it...
