Can anyone translate this for me?

I use pure O2 and a diffusion stone to oxygenate the wort in-line on its way from the BK to the fermentor. This works beautifully for the yeast and my beers finish right where they are supposed to finish. But everything I read says that oxygen is horrible for the hop oils/aroma that we're...

I've got a 3-year old Barley Crusher for sale. It includes the baseboard and is in very good nick. Getting rid of it only because it is surplus to my needs now. I'm asking $65 for it and pickup only please. Not really interested in trying to put this in the post. I'm in Sydney's Northwest...

I've been reading up on how to brew a 'session IPA', which is ~4% ABV and loads of hop flavour. The problem with these recipes, it appears, is that they usually come across and thin and watery hop juice. The challenge, then, is to get enough body (whilst keeping it at ~4% ABV) to support the...

I'm sure that this isn't original (but I can't recall ever seeing one), but it works a real treat. I've got a friend who likes my beer but who always returns the bottles in a shocking state. The bottle in the video clip had a good cm of mould growing in the bottom of it. Came up completely...

Just spent an evening at the coolest brewery ever. Their blonde IPA is a MUST. I talked to the brewer and he told me this: 100% Pilsner Chinook Mosaic Amarillo 3 BK additions 1 Whirlpool addition 2 dry hop additions As soon as I return to OZ, I'm going to be trying to reproduce this...

Several years back I was in Italy with a friend who used to write wine reviews for the London Times. He knows his wine. And I remember him exclaiming to me several times how incredible the region of Italy we were in was because every village had completely different wines. He found it amusing...

I've recently moved my brewery inside,which meant going to electric, so my gas system is for sale. I've written about it here: http://aussiehomebrewer.com/topic/78566-perfect-temp-control-with-gas/ Included are two 4-ring burners, Honeywell valve, pilot, thermo-couple,lpg conversion, an SSR, a...

Would anyone in the Sydney area happen to have a 1.25" hole punch I could borrow? I need to install a camco heating element in my BK and I'm not too keen to use a hole saw. I was just about to order a punch off of ebay, but then thought I might ask here first. pm me if you've got one you're...

Trying to clean out the shed and these need to go. I've got 3 54L glass (green) demijohns with the baskets. I used these for quite a while as my fermenters and they work great. $65/each or $175 for all three. pick up only. I'm in Sydney's Northwest. I've also got a commercial chest freezer...

Here's a thread to share those stories that let us all laugh with you -- we'd never laugh at you! This is my story.. My day started off well enough, but in retrospect I guess I was a little too ambitious and/or confident. I set off to harvest some yeast before I had had my coffee, then spent...

It looks like I might be making the move from gas to electric and am hoping to get some feedback before I get too far. I have an electrician friend who will be signing off on the final product, but I am hoping to avoid bugging him too much at this early stage. I already have a BCS, so I'll...

I'm such a sucker for descriptions like these: http://www.hopsdirect.com/belma-pellets/ Anyone tried these yet? Anyone in OZ importing them? I think I gotta get me some...

anyone know where I could pick up a few of these? http://morebeer.com/products/flare-fitting-washer.html thanks in advance!

I'm cooking up a "red ipa" recipe and this is what I have so far. Looking for a big smooth malty backbone with lots of citrus and pine. What do you think? Boil Size: 57.04 l Post Boil Volume: 53.04 l Batch Size (fermenter): 50.00 l Bottling Volume: 48.00 l Estimated OG: 1.058 SG Estimated...

I'm looking for ~100grams of reasonably fresh willamette hops to dryhop an apa I have. the most recent (freshest) ones I can find online are from 2012 and I suspect they are a bit too old to pack that aroma punch I need for a good dryhop. anyone know where I can find some from the 2013 crop...

I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced the wonderful return policy that Keg King has. I have ordered from them on 6 different occasions and each time something was wrong with the order. But they fixed it every time! One time they forgot to pack everything I had ordered. No...
