Hi team AHB, I'm finally getting a dedicated brew-space at home and I wanted to check your thoughts on what I should be incorporating into the build. Key points: The internal space will be roughly 2m x 5m with outward opening French doors. The room will have running water and a drain. I'll...

Aloha. The beer coming out of my keg is extremely foamy and I'm at a loss to explain why. Key points being: It was pouring okay up until a few days ago. The problem flared up after I replaced the main beer line today and thoroughly cleaned the perlick flow control tap. The cleaning was done...

Hi team AHB, Someone (not me!) was rearranging the garage recently and dropped something heavy on my mash tun's ball valve. This then placed pressure on the inside of the esky and created a crack that radiated out a couple of inches from the pipe nipple. BTW - It's been so long since I've...

Hey kemosabe's, I don't have access to my brew software so I'm hoping that you guys can help me finalise the recipe for a mosaic ale. I've got the following grist for a ~22 litre batch (70% efficiency): 3 kg Maris Otter Pale 1 kg Munich TYPE I 1 kg Rye Malt 0.5 kg German CaraHell I've got...

Hi all, Last night I received a message from my brother that my family in Coffs had really enjoyed the bottle of Murrays Anniversary Ale that they had cracked the other night. Whilst I normally appreciate such feedback, the background to this is that I moved to England 8 weeks ago and had...

Hi all, I'm moving to England on Wednesday and just realised that I need to sell off some HB bits and pieces. I'm in a bit of a hurry at the moment so I don't have time to loook for exact dimensions, but you can see that it can easily accomodate 3 kegs. There is a hump at the back so I've...

Below is a pic that I saw on the train the other day - monster trucks at The Hop Farm! I guess that being in middle of no-where means that they have plenty of spare land. Now all they need to do is get some musicians in ( la music in the vineyards @ Hunter Valley). FYI - I had been to this...

I have paid for two lots of Perlick taps/shanks/handles as part of Peteoz77's bulk buy, but have since decided that I like the look of Celli taps. Does anyone want to take over my Perlick order? The price is $134 delivered (they will be sent by Peteoz77). I'm only willing to sell as a pair...

I've had a computer rack sitting around that I was going to use as a three tier brew stand. ie, HLT on top, Mash Tun in the middle and Brew Kettle/burner on the bottom. Doc uses a similar setup. Unfortunately I don't have the room to use it for intended purpose - there isn't enough room in...

I'm hoping that someone might be able to help identify if my starter is okay or infected, although I appreciate that the information presented may be inconclusive. I made up a 1 litre starter to step up a fresh tube of WLP830 (lager yeast). The demijohn, bung and airlock were all properly...

Is anyone else going to the "Meet the Brewers" at the James Squire Brewhouse in Sydney tonight? The spiel is - FYI - Tonights event required pre-registration.

I made a hefeweizen on the weekend and wasn't sure that the wort should look like it does in the picture below. (This is only my 6th AG and first AG hefeweizen) As you can see, there is a clear film on the surface. Not too apparent from the picture is that there was lots of floating gunk...

I've got an 80 litre aluminium pot for sale. I bought it 6 months ago and haven't used it. It might have a couple of small scratches, but is otherwise in new condition. I paid $140, but will accept $80. If anyone wants it, the first to PM will get it. Pick up from NW Sydney.

My New Year resolution was to get into AG by the end of Jan. I've got most of the kit, but just have to piece it together. Key components that I have include- * 50litre(ish) old stainless steel "keg shaped" pot that my parents had been using for cooking crabs in for the past 20 years. * 80...

No affilitiation (etc) Positions Vacant: Squadron requested for Duty We're growing at a rate of knots and need passionate tasting staff! You've probably met our team through various trade shows or beer festivals and saw how excited we get yapping about beer - this could be you! So if you're...

"The order of Trappist monks got it right - keep your counsel and maintain hope." - John Howard quote from the following URL. Linky I wonder if this means that he was familiar with Trappist products?! I can just picture him kicking back with a couple of Orvals...

Kochy is at the beer factory at Seven Hills. Its on TV now!

Tonight I saw Reinhard from the Lowenbrau Kellar (Sydney) carry twenty full 1 litre steins over 40 metres to set a new Guinness world record. Very impressive. If I remember correctly, he smashed the record (which was previously held by a frauline) by about four or five steins. Reinhard (who...
