17 May is good for me - first time in about 5 years. Hooray!

Yep - have been to Tooboorac Pub a few times. The beer is OK. My next door neighbour spends every Thurs night down there and sleeps it off in his van! But he is retired, so I don't really have the inclination to do the same. The funny thing is that a few of the locals there drink VB from the tap...

A little further south - Heathcote. Thanks for the link. I used to buy half bags, but I find that these days I am better off buying in small amounts as I do not brew often enough to avoid the grain losing its freshness. I find that there is a significant difference between using stuff that is...

Ok, thought so. Thanks. B.A.Ders - I will endeavour to make the next meet. FYI, I have come from the Inner Sydney Brewers and look forward to meeting up with you guys. I have forgotten how f8*& cold it gets down here - good for brewing though. EB

Hi all, I have moved to the area and I am wondering where I can obtain all-grain supplies in the area - or is Melbourne the only real option? Thanks EB

As one of the more distant members, the Queen's Birthday weekend suits me, since I will be in Sydney then.

Bjorn, That's only because you will next make us drink some spruce infused session beer made out of porridge, call "Elg Oppkastet". EB

NOW I find this post!

Hi all, I have just moved to the area (Heathcote) from Sydney where I was an active ISBer (Inner Syd Brewer). I am interested in the occasional meet. I am more than happy to host one myself - the last one I did with the home-made sausages seemed to go down OK. I'll keep an eye on this site...

I'll let you know. I will be out of Sydney for work over that period, so I will see if I am coming back for the weekends.

Sorry about the no show. Wifey had big night so I got soccer duty in the morning.

Yep - good point. You also don't need to use too much salt. I halved the amount I used last time from the recipe I had. I think it was about a flat teaspoon per kg. Too much draws out too much moisture and toughens the meat. Err on the low side.

Can't commit yet, but you can use my sausage stuffer if you want. Makes the job four times as fast and less painful than through the mincer again.

*&%, almost missed this! What time Barls? Didn't we start at 0730 last time, although I note the Lowenbrau begins at 9am

Where - Balmain / Rozelle, near Sackville Pub (PM for address) When - 11 am onwards What - BBQ. Home made snags supplied, bread rolls, etc So I can get a handle on numbers could people please PM me or on google groups. I will send address upon receipt. Apologies that I will not be able to...

Will be ready to kick off about 11 am on this Sat. As stated earlier, BJ and I will get the BBQ fired up. Just bring yourselves and your finest ale. Pls PM me for the address. EB

Good news! I am hoping that someone might take the lead in the brewing side, and I will take care of the rest. I have a BBQ and will have a few snags to share out from my and BJ's pretence at being butchers. However, if it is all too hard to drag equipment and grain over we can just keep it to a...
