AS long as I brew a Wit and a Kriek from time to time my wife is very supporting!

Oven method is the way to go if you have little time... use a low alpha hop though.

There should be a pressure release valve on the side of the connector. Just hook up connector with beer line connected and burp away..

I will grab some MO and Weyermann Bohemian and perhaps some Munich...

Hi O'Henry, Received it today and I'm well chuffed with it. Thanks!!

Interested, email sent!!!

Hi Tom, I made 23 liters of cider using a juicer, and I won't do it again. I chewed though 5 boxes of apples (pink lady, gala and granny smith). The juicer is just not built to cope with that volume (unless you got a professional one). Mine was smoking after 15 minutes, and had to cool down...

As far as I know the the only difference between food grade and non food grade CO2 is the price.

Three of these?

Brewer Pete, I have a question regarding bottling the mead. Do you add fresh yeast and a bit of sugar to carbonate and scavenge the remaining oxygen in the bottle? Or do you just bottle in wine bottles with an additive like sulphite to prevent oxidization? Beers!

Most big bottle shops sell the stubbies below cost. I've asked around at LN, and the wholesale price for New is higher than the price you pay at Dan Murphy's. Sold as a loss leader just to get the footfall in. Guess the longnecks are being sold at a more realistic price.

There was a whole article about this in the Sydney Morning Herald this week. http://www.smh.com.au/news/entertainment/g...4918031286.html I am wondering if some of these are usable as adjuncts.

Thanks for the bulk buy calculations Pete, If a Bulk buy with the Canberra club eventuates please let us know!

I've got one kicking around, I replaced a Gigabyte mobo with an ASUS board with NVIDIA chipset because the Gigabyte board kept giving me blue screens. Reinstalled half a dozen times, and then someone told me it may be a faulty memory controller. Sound familiar? You're welcome to the Gigabyte...

That siphon looks the biz.. I'd be up for one of those if a bulk buy eventuates.. Got a mead in a demijohn and two lambics in water cooler bottles that I need to get out..

Hi DJ, These 5 liter carboys are called a demijohn. It's a flask with a swingtop seal. I picked mine up at a LHBS some time ago. It's a great size for yeast starters and small brews, and yes, siphoning is the way to get the liquid out. I clean these same as my conical flasks: hot water and...

Yep, chill out and keep taking Hydro measurements till they don't change. Then you will know it's done, and you can bottle / keg. It you had foam (krausen) It's obviously done it's job.

still looks sweet to me, Thanks for organising this Jonny!

Just give them 2 weeks anywhere above 18 Celsius, and the will have carbed up.... a bit longer is required for full maturation with some brews... especially if you are after something to have a souring effect. edit after thought
