    West Coast of America Trip

    Highly recommend Cascade in Portland, awesome sours. (Went back a second time to try the rest). Baileys Taproom in town had a good range Beermongers was cool (bar and bottleshop), Apex is nearby... not to everyones tastes.

    Original Gravity

    One way to approach this next brew day, is take a sample pre boil and post boil, seal them and let them cool to room temp and measure both at the same temperature with your refracometer and a hydrometer. Compare results.

    NSW State comp 2017

    Stu / Barls - how are you looking re the number of stewards. I've got prior commitments but if you are looking at being short handed I might be able to duck out the other commitments to help.

    Aging with Oak Chips

    Hey All, I've got 3 big RIS stouts on the go at the moment, and I'm aging 2 of them on oak chips (presoaked in whisky). The 3rd I just added the resulting whisky (after the presoaking) but left the wood out. I'm now wondering the best way (once the aging has completed) of avoiding oak chips in...

    NSW State comp 2017

    Nice I actually have 2 of them I use for cleaning my gear, I haven't actually tried to fill a bottle with one. But great idea.

    NSW State comp 2017

    My previous entries have all been bottled conditioned, it that favourable then filling bottles straight from the keg ? As I have some kegged beers that would be good to submit.

    Building a Jockey Box - Tips & Advice?

    I'm very happy with my Jockeybox (plate chiller style), still has (some) Ice in it 3 days later and after kicking 3-4 kegs. It's just on the large size. My DYI post is here for reference - http://aussiehomebrewer.com/topic/91480-cold-plate-jockey-box/#entry1385640 I've since added more john...

    Cold Plate Jockey Box

    Hey Dan, I've pressured tested it but not used it yet, will be in a few weekends time. I don't have a license so use public transport a lot, so wheels makes my life a little easier.

    Cold Plate Jockey Box

    Started and completed my cold plate jockey box setup on Sunday. I went with the Keg King cold plate kit but upgraded to the flow control Intertaps (hoping that gives me a little leeway to tweak the pours). I really wanted a Esky on wheels but found a number of them wouldn't fit the cold plate...

    FV mystery white substance

    Hey All, I've noticed once or twice a little bit of flakey white build up when bottling from a FV but it hasn't really worried me before. On this occasion however there seems to be a lot more of it, and I was wondering first what is it ? And if its something to worry about. This is the first...

    Is my ginger brew taking too long?

    Just wanted to ask the dumb question - how did you prime the bottles ? Sugar, carb drops or bulk priming ?

    Lion introduces "Tap King" - party keg / growlers

    Might be some people have mates supplying with with empty TK vessels so once you've modded it the 'kegs' are free or close enough to it ?

    Pimp My TapKing

    Looks like a interesting project. Just enlisted one of the Super Dry drinkers in the office to give me his empty kegs. So I've got a reason to buy a TapKing head. I'd rather recycle the bottles then buy them with less then stella beer in them :D Will follow your progress with interest!

    Cutting Down a Fridge/Freezer into a Fermentation Chamber

    Hey All, I've seen some modifications of smaller bar fridges mentioned on here, but I'm sure someone has had a go at what I'm considering. A mate of mine has a smallish fridge he isn't using. Its a Samsung - http://www.productreview.com.au/p/samsung-sr21nme.html And I was wondering if there...

    Any cool homebrew stand ideas for GABS 2014?

    Slightly off topic, but got back from Beervana and they had a great MALT seminar which involved tasting 5-6 different Malts and exploring the flavour characteristics they also had cool wheel charts to go along with each tasting so you could compare what you identified with its "real flavour...

    Castle Hill Home brew Competition 2013

    So two questions. One how is the judging split between day 1 and day 2 ? Looks like I might have to work Saturday morning, so maybe can't attend both days. Also how long do you you sign up for to help be a steward ?
