I made a British IPA last year with 3% Amber, which was 6%alc. Initially thought it was a complete failure, really harsh as you've described. But after 3+ months in the keg, those flavours really settled and actually it reminded me a lot of Fullers 1845. Also use Brown malt regularly, and...

Hi Yob, When are you splitting the Mandarina Bavaria and the Amarillo? Been watching/waiting for weeks... Cheers

I Could be wrong but I reckon you might get some oxidation issues, which doesn't matter if you're using it as a Randall. Or you'll invent a new hopping technique!

Hey mate, if you fancy a trip to the UK, and the delights of Sunderland! Brewlab does a 10 week course twice a year. Limited to 12 students when I did it. They also offer shorter courses. http://www.brewlab.co.uk/courses You can also pop over to Newcastle for a bit of Brewdog fun on the...

Hey mate, I used 3% Simpsons Brown in a mild and I think it hits the spot. Both the Simpsons Brown and Amber take time to mellow, but I like them a lot. Having said that I also used 1.5% Choc and 3% Dark Crystal, mashed at 67. When using Wyeast 1968 it ended up a touch sweet for my tastes, not...

I'll grab 225's of Simcoe, Chinook, Amarillo and Columbus if possible... Have been waiting for some new arrivals to place an order! Cheers

While $400 isn't "cheap", I have one of these and works a treat. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Seben-SBX-5-Stereo-Lab-Microscope-6-eyepieces-2000x-/380284548957?pt=AU_Business_Industrial_Medical_Scientific_Equipment2&hash=item588ab9b75d I figured I could spend $100 on something that may be a...

I have one of these http://www.glaciertanks.com/TriClamp_Strainers-TriClamp_Strainer_1_1_2.html review of similar product here: https://www.brewershardware.com/FILTER1-Testing.html postage is a killer, but it works a treat.... Cheers

If it goes boom every time you turn it on its stuffed... If your rcd trips, then its likely there is a tiny amount of moisture in the element which is tripping the rcd. Element is fine, but you need to get rid of the moisture. You can do this by plugging it in to a non-rcd protected outlet, with...

Hi mate, The 80A one is your main switch, it doesn't trip at 80A or mean you have 80A at your disposal, it is there to turn off everything in one switch. A main isolator for your apartment essentially. Wow, I'm a sparky in WA and haven't ever seen 28A domestic power circuits before... I'm...

I'm a chiller and had infection issues with the jerrys. Soaked with Sod Perc, sanitised with Starsan, tried hot water as well. Its impossible to clean the handle properly, and because of the small size theres always gunk in there. Ignore this if you're a no-chiller... If you're serious, save...

I'd reckon torrified wheat will give you the creaminess you're after. That and a handpull with a fine sparkler! Cheers

Florian you are 100% correct. They come supplied with lovely black oil (at least mine did) around the ball. The problem is once you open a ball valve once, the wort which is inside the ball when you twist it shut then drains into the chamber around the ball. I found when taking a sample, the...

Hi guys, I bought a 100L SS conical from Keg King, which came with ball valves. First ferment was fine, then an infection crept in. You guessed it! Turns out it was the ball valves. Fermenting wort enters the chamber around the ball valve every time you take a sample, which I've found to be a...

Just throwing it out there, made me think about these... http://www.maltosefalcons.com/clubgear/has...aka-moormanator http://www.dogfish.com/company/tangents/ra...amel-animal.htm
