Guys from Keg King got in touch with me after placing an order and helped me out so kudos to them - appreciated

This was the response I received from Keg King - the burst disc isn't blown, the nut housing it is cracked. "At this stage of 18 months old the warranty is no longer valid. I believe on the label of the cylinder it also says if filled elsewhere outside of Keg King the warranty is void. Also...

Hi all, I've had a 2.6l CO2 Keg King bottle for some time that usually lives inside the keezer which I really didn't have any problems with until I moved from Canberra back to Darwin. For some reason it dropped the entire bottle of CO2 whilst I was carbonating 2 AG brews last week so I took it...

Haven't got the refill done yet. I'll try supa gas next week, but I'm going to try and put down to brews tomorrow so it might be a busy day. Just trying to find all the bits and pieces after the move..... I touched base with one mile and they were helpful and I'll support them as long as the...

Hi all, just moved back to Darwin and setting the gear up. Brewing with a 20l braumeister and a couple of temp controlled fridge/freezers. A little down, brought up a heap of grain that I had in sealed bags I side tote boxes and just found that those tiny little ants had got in......not too many...

Thanks for that, my main issue I guess is if I should be using the 4mm or 6mm as beer line?

HI All - Just in the midst of building a keezer. Picked up a cheap second hand freezer so spent spent some money on 3 Perlick 650SS taps. Only issue I'd like some help on is the length and diameter of gas/beer lines. Gas I guess doesn't matter but I just want to make sure I get close for the...

Another question I have regarding the BM is racking to fermentor and avoiding all the trub. My first beer ended up with a lot of trub and crap after the boil from the hop additions and as I wasn't to careful when racking it from the tap to fermentor alot of this ended up in it. I tried to...

Blind Dog - If I mash out at step 2 overnight like suggested, hit the button to stop beeping and leave the lid on. Does the recirc Pp and heaters run all night to maintain 78

Wow, that's great news. I was expecting a drop in efficiency with higher grain bills but wasn't expecting to pack 6.3kgs in. Might look at the overnight mashout, maybe start Saturday night and finish Sunday as planned. Thanks for the tips

First off let me say I'm an idiot. Have been planning my second brew on the 20l Braumeister, a Little Creatures IPA clone which I was really excited about, but not so much now. I worked it all out on BeerSmith and as I'm so new to this BM it didn't even occur to me until I received the grainbill...

Thanks for the information, heaps to work with now. FWIW I did end up getting some sent down from Craftbrewer.

Hi all - I'm trying to find some cararye for a little creatures IPA clone but am having no luck from any of the homebrew shops I've tried. Does anyone know who might have some in stock I can arrange for delivery? Who are the best guys to use for internet orders that may hold this. All the sites...

Thanks BD - I've made the adjustments with the original quantities and still find the IBU high at around 76 IBU. I think I'll drop the EKG down to 28g which brings the IBU down to 60.

Changed the grain bill - any thoughts? Just not sure if I've got the hop schedule sorted. Quantities are a lot less for some reason to get that ~40 IBU

HI All - I'm only just getting into the AG brewing and have made a couple of SMaSH with a 20l Braumeister which have been pretty good. I'd like to have a go at a Little Creatures IPA Clone and have plugged the recipe in from above on BeerSmith and the bitterness seems way off, shows around 100...

interesting and thanks for that. I've got it stored in the cupboard and the bottle does have a breather in it. I also mixed a litre spray bottle which is also stored in the cupboard and I use it as a no rinse spray, is this no good? I did buy some StarSan to use but I was going to use up all...

Hi all. I'm looking for a Kegerator or fridge/freezer setup to hold around 3 19lt kegs. Happy to look new or secondhand and if anyone can give me some information on what's good/bad or indifferent that would be appreciated. There seems to be a few different types on the market that range from...

Picked up my 2015 Braumeister a few weeks back and after finally getting all the other gear together I kicked it in the guts on Sunday and made my first AG brew. Now I haven't AG brewed before or extract for nearly 10 years so I was a little nervous about brew day, but the BM made the day...
