Just kegged a lager using the above yeast and I really just don't like it. Mrs HB tried it and said it was strange, I could just taste green apples. I have read that it produces green apple flavour but I couldn't have imaged how much. With this in mind, I fermented at 11 C (starting gravity...

First is an older Westinghouse, all fridge, would be good for dispensing from kegs, it would need a homemade shelf, would hold 4 19L kegs or good for cooling a fermenter

Green swing tops, never refilled, clean. They're too nice to throw away but I have no use for them.

I have made myself a HERMS vessel, I wound the coil from annealed copper pipe around a keg and fitted it inside an old boiler (no not an IUD for Mrs Harbour-Bridge) and it works a treat. I was drying it after using it and noticed something that looks like copper plating in the bottom of it...

Just trying a stout from these guys, it's very chocolaty and perfect for the weather today

I just added HERMS to my 3 V system and I have noticed the grain bed is floating towards the end of the mash and while sparging. Nothing else has changed. I am getting very high extract efficiencies, over 100% in brewers friend, I thought I must have put to much grain in but it has been...

I have a robobrew I bought from keg king in December 2016 last weekend when chilling my brew the screen just went blank, I thought no problem just switch off and on again. However it will not display normally, nor does beep when the power is switched on like it used to do, any ideas how I can...

A bloke at work needs to get set up, he lives near Werribee in Vic, The Brew Barn is near him in Swappers but I have no idea what they are like, where is the best place he could he buy the equipment he needs to start off? Thanks in advance
