Got home after ordering 2 packets of 1084 Irish Ale Yeast that the wife put in the freezer for 3 days so rock hard..... Are they dead .. am I stuffed ? Anybody done this before

I am About keg a lager which I made 3 weeks ago but due to a set of errors I made it at 6.7% ABV instead of 5.2% (boil off was significantly more than expected). Can I just add water to bring it back down, how will that affect flavour ? Can you just water down ? FYI I will boil water then...

I am selling my 3V system in West Pymble NSW photos attached. An electric HLT, long insulated cord with normal power point I think the element is 2K may be slightly more. Works a treat. A 10gallon mash tun with false bottom as show. Boil kettle a great polished keg, on a burner with a...

Keen to purchase 100L mash tun

hmmm I brewed an IPA in a bit of a rush two weeks ago, tasted out of fermenter .. a bit rough on the bittering taste... I have never had this problem before however very rarely do IPAs, I think this is my second, (this is my 29th all grain brew)) my most common are Stouts, largers and Pale...

I am interested in using a hop back as I love that flavour and aroma from late stage addition. I notice that they seem to all say no pellets ? Does anyone know if there is a way around this. Secondly is there a reason it is out hot side of the chiller can you do cold side and what is the...

I have been look around the web and have not been able to find an answer to a combination question. I am thinking of : 1) Transferring from my fermenter to the keg after cold crashing 2) Immediately adding gelatine to help clear 3) immediately do a "rapid force carb" which is basically me...

I just had a serious beer making f**kup I had to share as I am not brave enough to go upstairs yet… It all started a week and a bit ago when I had a few friends over and we had a brewing day, more heavily based on drinking than brewing as SWMBO was away with the kids for 4 days ! We made a...

I am getting more and more keen to brew a mead, I have started researching a lot... and in summary the key ingredient (no sh!t right) is honey ! I have started to read and it seems lighter is better when it comes to honey and when I look at what we have in Australia it seems to be thing like...

I am thinking of getting a jockey box, but interested to know if they work well ? My concern is I thought that a warm keg would have the CO2 come out of the beer, so wouldn't putting a warm keg through a Jockey box result in flat beer ... or am I mistaken. I would love to be able to have a...

I have made another "Oatmeal type" Stout, which I really like. It is basically a Oatmeal Stout with Chocolate, small amount of lactose, some minor spices and a very very small amount of Chili (yes sounds strange). But it is smooth, almost silky feel, medium sweetness stout but just but on the...

I am doing my first 3V brew day today, and have two choices : 1) I can use a gravity feed from the Mash Tun to a Grant for the Sparge, and then pump from Grant to kettle.. this will increase my loss by 1.8L due to Grant dead space, and hoses. 2) I can pump directly from mash tun to...

Ok I am BIAB but keen to go to 3 Vessel (yes please don;t post why blah blah blah), I always started with this end state in mind and now the wife is endorsing the expansion plan, which I am amazed at to be frank. In addition to this I am interested in a HERM System, maybe a RIM, but I like the...

I have only been active on here since Christmas when I switched from kit to BIAB and LOVE it... I notice a lot of discussions on here and case swaps up north and down south, but nothing around Sydney ? Are there any case swaps that happen here ? Love the concept

Is there any point adding Irish moss at the end of a boil for a stout ?? I know it helps clear the beer, but is this needed in a Stout, does the dropping out of the proteins (?) actually help the flavour as well

thinking of doing something a little different and need some guidance to ensure I am not a complete nut job about to produce crap beer....... It is a sweet stout. Is it a daft receipe, any guide on the mash temp and is US-05 the right yeast. Type: All Grain Batch Size: 20.00 l Equipment...
