I have nothing on this weekend, and the bike needs a good run in now that the weather has improved! If anyone is brewing this weekend and would like a friendly chat with a fellow brewer just tell me when and where!

Right, I have finally broken the bank and lashed out on some OzTops to make cider. I want to be able to use a proper liquid cider yeast, but it's a lot of expense and work for >2L batches. I was thinking of making something similar to the whitelabs pitchable which contains all the nutrient the...

I am in need of glass bottles to put brew in, stubs would be best but any glass bottle is fine. PM is best, but you can reply here if you do not know how.

I have a heap of grain, hops, and AG brewing gear to get rid of. I am moving to VIC and have decided it is not worth moving. I have 7 kilos of Wey Munich II, 25 of BB Wheat, 20 of Wey Bo Pils, 7 of Wey Vienna, and 10 of Galaxy. I was hoping to get $1.75 per kilo for the BB and $2.75 per kilo...

Not really brewing related, but could certainly be used in the brewery... and the price... well... wow... http://www.catchoftheday.com.au

Hey all, I am after a good yeast for making turbo cider. I prefer a sweet cider and plan to add 500g honey to the 21L batch. I figured a sweet mead yeast woiuld be best, but I don;t have one and I need drinks fast! ;) If anyone has a culture they could send me that would be great! If not please...

I got some bad news a couple weeks back, and the second opinion today confirmed it. I need to cut gluten from my diet, but I was thinking maybe I could continue to drink beer if I could find a way to use a lot less malted barley/wheat and a lot more oats/rice/corn/sourgum etc. I have done a...

I grabbed this off eBay germany. I did not realise until after it ended (for less than 4 euros!) that there must be something seriously wrong with them? Could one of the German speaking people give me a better translation of what the auction says? From babbelfish's translation I read nothing...

As per this thread, the new version of Beersmith now has the 2008 BJCP guidelines in it.

Anyone else noticed a plastic flavour in the fresh wort kits they have brewed? I had noticed this before but thought perhaps it was something with the process the brewer used to do his brews, but I encountered it again last night in the products of another brewer. Thing is with this other...

Like the title says. Any good places to grab a beer in Rocky? I don't think there are any breweries there, so just a decent pub with good beers on tap or in bottles would be good!

Like the title says, 200L Chest freezer at K-Mart for $299!

I am interested in calculating the gravity of two beers from a single mash. Where by it tells me the estimated gravity of the first runnings, and then the gravity of the second runnings after sparging.

I have been wanting to do this style for a long time. I was looking through the grain at Craftbrewer and stumbled upon Peat Smoked Malt! Now that I have access, I need a bit of help fine tuning the recipe: Amount Item Type % or IBU 4.00 kg Pale Malt, Galaxy (Barrett Burston) (1.5...

I have a simple question, yet the answer is not so easy to find. If you reuse a trub and put a fresh wort over it, does that mean the yeast is now in a new generation? Say for instance you pitch a generation zero liquid yeast (it now becomes generation one), then you rack the beer off the trub...

As the title says, I would like suggestions of products that have small strong magnets that could be removed and glued to a case fan to make a stir plate. I have the magnetic stir bars but no magnets I could find were strong enough to spin them properly!

Are there any retails that resell these (or does anyone have a couple they could sell)? I have gone to Andale direct but they want $9 just for postage from Brissy to Bundy for what would fit in a $1 envelope.

Picked up a 1L can of this at the local Bottle-O. Cost $13 and came with a free 1L glass stein. The beer was quite good and the stein will definately come in handy! I suggest anyone that has a local Bottle-O buy one of these and throw the beer out if you are not impressed, the stein alone is...

I have been cooking up a plan to brew a beer which has the grain profile of an Oktoberfest with the hop profile of an IPA and uses ale yeast. Can anyone think of any reason why these styles should not be joined in holy fermentality? Speak now or for ever hold your tongue! 3.00 kgPale Malt, Ale...
