Hi all, Anyone know where you can buy 5-star's Defoamer or an equivalent product in Oz? Been looking around but can't seem to find any! Thanks ben

Hi All, I vaguely remember someone here ordered a high flow impeller upgrade for the standard 809-PL-HS march pump, but I couldn't find the thread yesterday. Anyone done this, thinking of doing this or just know where to order one from and indeed if it can actually be done? Thanks Ben

Hi all, Have any Adelaide based brewers stumbled across a supply of flaked maize? I know you can use polenta, but I'm specifically interested in flaked maize. Thanks Ben

Hi all, Does anyone here know where I might find a single 1/2" BSP tap? I need to retap the thread on a socket in my mash tun because it got some weld in it.... annoying. Thanks Ben

Hi all, Does anyone have any decent schematics or photos of the different types of gas and beer line disconnects? I have a bunch of these where I work and am trying to sort out which is which. Other than sometimes being painted white or black (which ours aren't) and the fact they're not...

Had a brew session with mates on the weekend intending to make Smurto's Landlord using Wyeast ringwood. Somewhere along the line we appear to have ended up with 10x the amount of chocolate malt required (and possibly 1/10th of the Munich). Didn't notice until it was in the mash tun and wet...

Hi all, A month back I brewed a hefeweizen with a 50:50 wheat:pale malt bill and some tettnang hops. I split the batch into 2x 25L ferments and pitched WY3638 in one and Lallemand Dry Munich in the other. For some reason both had a really drawn out ferment (prob better than expected...

Hi all, This is my first post, but I've been learning off you guys for quite a while! On Thursday I pitched a Wyeast 3638 Bavarian Wheat into 2 batches (both all grain), a 25L Hefeweizen and 25L Dunkleweizen, I'd made a 5L starter culture (with some light DME) to get the yeast ready because...
