Hey crew, 12 old beer bottles were found during construction of the new Stzrelecki trial, with 'property of richmond' moulded in 3D text along the bottom and a tiger/puma face moulded in the glass mid-way up the bottle. It seems a pretty safe bet that these were Richmond Tiger Beers. A few...

Hey guys, I was a lingerer here on the forums some time back, now working as a journalist in the Latrobe Valley. Just wondering if anyone on here in the Valley, or immediately surrounding areas, have been up to anything brewing/distilling related for Chrissy ? Whether it be a local case swap...

Howdy all, I'm studying journalism at Monash University, and write for my campus student publication. Have been meaning to write an article on home brewing and it's particular benefits for uni students for a while now. (I myself started it originally for financial reasons back in 2003 when I...

Have been using 2xAsahi kegs for the last few months since i've recently starting kegging. Until now, I've been tapping the spear open by gently as possible tapping the small stainless tabs protruding into the well which the coupler locks into, with a bolt and hammer. The tabs are starting to...

had a search to see if this had come up before, to no avail... does anyone know off the bat if the red plastic fuel jerry cans sold at camping and hardware stores labelled as for fuel storage purposes are food grade? cheers

Howdy folks. Got me an Amarillo Pale Ale that's had enough time in secondary. Would like to cold condition this, but haven't got a dedicated fridge for the task yet. I'd probably be able to fit a cube into the serving fridge - which sits at about 5 degrees. Would there even be any benefit to...

howdy chaps would love to give the Nelson Sauvin Summer Ale a crack, but only have access to extract ingredients through my local HBS. can someone suggest an extract recipe that would be close to this? willing to order some specialty stuff online but nothing too heavy. cheers, Louie

Howdy chaps Recently put this baby on: Morgan's Iron Bark Dark Ale Thomas Coopers Dark Malt Extract Dark Brew Booster #12 Kit Yeast Original Gravity - 1.060 Final Gravity 1.024 She's way too sweet. I had my suspicions that adding a Brew Booster PLUS a tin of unhopped malt...

Recently started kegging. I'm naturally carbonating - bulk priming and leaving for about 6-8 days at room temp, then hooking up to the sodastream, for serving purposes. By the end of the keg - my Sodastream's empty. I've been running serving pressure at about 8 psi (that's seems to be as low...

Howdy chaps. Have recently moved to the incredibly hilly Warragul. Been the absolute basic k&k brewer for some time now. Only just recently begun wanting to step things up us far as quality brewing goes. Still only doing kits, and recently started kegging. (drinking my third kegged brew as I...

Just picked a tin of the Golden Sheaf plus a tin of LME (Wheat). I recently had a wheat beer with a strong banana presence. It's all in the yeast, yes? Would I be on the right track with this?: http://www.craftbrewer.com.au/shop/details.asp?PID=1638 This is my first wheat extract. Should I...

Hey fellas, just getting into it. Got a Coopers Real Ale, Brew Enhancer 2 & Safale going. Now the local HBS only had Tea Bags in the way of hops. Steeped 12G Cascade in boiling water then threw all (bag included) in. Now, is this 'dry hoppping', or do you only this term in secondary.. ? My...

Howdy chaps. Got meself a Type S coupler, with screw on barb attachments for gas in and liquid out. I've seen photo posts from one of you blokes with Corny disconnects attached to a keg coupler. Where can i get my hands on ball lock posts that will screw onto my coupler, so i can use my Corny...

Howdy chaps. Before I hit ebay, just wondering if anyone's got a Type S (Asahi/Heineken) coupler they want to palm off? Cheers
