    Stone & Wood Pacific Ale

    Sounds like a plan to me MHB. When I get some permanent living arrangements sorted I'm thinking of getting a grainfather + the still stop so I can do AG beer as well as spirits :) Slcmoro, I used100% Galaxy in mine 80gs worth [emoji482]

    Stone & Wood Pacific Ale

    Thanks for the reply menoetes. Not really fussed about the gravity being a little different or stronger for that matter. Fuller bodied does sound good though. Lol Might see if I can rustle up a llme can before I brew so I've still got about 3 weeks before I need to think about it. As you said...

    Stone & Wood Pacific Ale

    I really do love insainly hoppy beers so I think I will make this as the OP + 5g in the boil but then dry hop with 30g Galaxy. (I have 80g at hand) and up my boil rates a little. I know I'm getting out of the original recipe but i would like to push the IBUs up as it really does sound a little...

    Cleaning Fermenter Taps

    Glad I stumbled onto this, as a new brewer I wasn't aware that they were able to be pulled apart for cleaning. Hopefully this new found knowledge will keep my brews infection free. My 1st brew had choc grain added to it and left a brown ring under the inside of my tap and even after soaking in...

    Stone & Wood Pacific Ale

    Thanks for input JoshF. I will defiantly give it my best to find it here in Adelaide and try. Will keep it same as OP if that's the best result though... Can still use all my hops for an attemp at a fruit salad ale after that so all good. No drama fermenting at 18c and my pail fermenter just...

    Adding spirit base to a dark ale kit?

    thanks for the reply kaiserben. I don't mind buying whatever hops would do the trick.... I have access to 25g of hallertau (im pretty sure that's what its called) if that would also work or in a combo with the fuggles

    Cheers for the replays beer belly and rocker [emoji482] I have a pail fermenter which has no rubber ring but have plenty of old rope etc I can tie around it... Perhaps just not snap the lid down and cover the hole with tape re rockers comment would be the way to go. Does cold crash do anything...

    G'day All

    It's cold as in Adelaide at this time of year and I'm currently living in an ancient ice box of a house.... Really don't think it has any insulation so no probs with keeping the temp down without the fridge as it gets down to well under 10c in my spare room (aka soon to be brewery) over night...
