Hi everyone, The club has given me a bunch (150g) of pride of Ringwood and 400g of pale choc to brew something with. What would you brew with this? I am thinking an Australian Old or Stout immediately but would be interested to hear other opinions. Cheers Starkesbier

All good with me. Cheers

Hi everyone, the bad news is is that while the sulphur smells have reduced significantly the flavour hasn't at all :icon_vomit: . Going to turf it tomorrow. Thanks for all the advice though. Turns out I threw good money after bad by pitching the yeast. Lesson for the future - any suspicious...

It's early days yet but the baked bean smell seems to be reducing significantly as the yeasties do their thing. Fingers crossed the whole problem will disappear and the beer will end up tasting alright. Will keep this up to date as the beer progresses. Cheers Starkesbier

Type of malt was Weyermann pilsner which to be honest I've never had a problem with before. And my boil was much more vigorous than normal as I was slightly under my preboil gravity so I wanted to make sure I hit my post boil gravity. I think I boiled off about 15% from memory which is much...

Hey, I just opened my cube and got a strong smell of baked beans/cooked veges which is a classic DMS smell. When I think about it I only boiled for 60 minutes when I should have boiled for 90. Any suggestions? Or just pitch and pray? Cheers Starkesbier

Actually I have heard a bottle let go in the shed as a storm front arrived. That moment when the big gust of wind hit and the temperature and pressure change and the bottle just went pop. I attributed it more to pressure than temperature. Of course the other bottles in that batch turned out to...

If someone else wants in I am happy for someone to take my place. Cheers Starkesbier

Well done to all involved. Especially my PUBS brethren who got 3 out of the 4 Qld awards. Starkesbier

The beer man has closed up shop unfortunately.

Hey, My English IPA that won the Spotted Cow home brew competition (see here) goes on tap this weekend at the Spotted Cow in Toowoomba, Qld. I have named it Starke's Triumph after the Bernard Cornwell novel Sharpe's Triumph that covers the Duke of Wellingtons battle at Seringapatam in India...

My understanding is they meet at the Chermside Library. Contact them through their website for more details. Or PM me and I can give you their secretaries email address.

Have you considered attending PUBS or BBC meetings as these two clubs meet on the northside (petrie, kallangur strathpine for PUBS and Chermside library for BBC). Give me a yell if you are interested. Cheers Starkesbier
