Hi everyone, I am selling off all my brew gear. Struggling for time mixed with other priorities. I have photos of everything taken today, just ask if you need more details. Everything is sold as-is. I can post, but buyer covers all postage costs and I can only post on weekends. Express post...

Hi Everyone, Thought I would share my trip to Little Creatures and White Rabbit in Geelong with you all. I got there around 10am, looked around a bit and took some photos, then went on the $12 tour at 11am. Grace was our tour guide, and we got the history of Little Creatures, then visited the...

So I am looking at a 7gallon Chronical and the FTSS kit. Problem is, the controller it comes with only runs the pump. I ideally I would like to have a heat pad or belt for those colder nights. I planned to run the cold water from my keezer, and want to see if it can achieve cold crash temps...

I have noticed this for a while now. The majority of filtered beers I have tasted, have a distinct chemical like flavour. Most prominent in filtered pale ales. This Hawthorn Brewery Pale Ale is the latest. It is less noticeable in darker beers, but I get it in Coopers Sparkling and Pale Ale...

First AG brew today, with all my new toys. 50L kettle, 19L HLT, 34L esky Mash Tun. NASA burner. Decided on Snow's recipe for a Pacific Ale clone (minus the FWH addition). I stuffed up heaps and also under estimated losses in the MT and Kettle by a fair margin. I calculated and made...

Hi Guys, Decided to go the Keezer route instead of buying a Kegerator from Keg King/CB/G&G. I am going for something similar to this guy: http://billybrew.com/kegerator-collar Aussie Jarrah stain on the top collar and bottom collar (for casters). Spraying the freezer black. Planned Features...

Hi Guys, I have been on the Coopers forum for a while, and started with the Coopers kits. First one was years ago, and that kit Lager I brewed was...unique. The FV and PET's sat unused for a few years. Then I had the urge to give it another crack. Then I bought another beer kit, and a 3rd. I...
