Thanks for the help guys. :)

Hi there! I'm grabbing recipes from Brewing Classic Styles by Jamil Zainasheff. The recipes for blonde ale and American brown ale call for American two row malt. The recipes for ESB and porter call for English pale malt. What should I be buying for American two row? The grain lists from...

QUOTE (John Palmer)Re-hydrating Dry Yeast 1. Put 1 cup of warm (95-105F, 35-40C) boiled water into a sanitized jar and stir in the yeast. Cover with Saran Wrap and wait 15 minutes. 2. "Proof" the yeast by adding one teaspoon of extract or sugar that has been boiled in a small amount of...

I loved the game for 6 months from the release date. Nearly got divorced. It's such a time vampire. No matter how cool they look, I can't order these in fear of starting to play the damn thing again.

Me or the kegerator? Or both?! I think the parenting issue I'm gonna have to figure out on my own, as for the physical, I see these solutions. 1) unscrew the handles 2) lock them Of course, the MAIN problem, is I don't have a kegerator yet. This must be solved!

Not an option. With that kind of mental scarring, how will I teach them to brew beer for ME?

This is the NIGHTMARE scenario I want to avoid! Thanks for the inspiration to make sure I find a solution!

http://morebeer.com/view_product/16273//Faucet_Lock .. US$49.95 .. owch, but worth considering. I have a 6, almost 4 and 2 year old boys. The youngers currently love to play with the water tap outside the house, so I'm afraid the lure of a tap inside within reach (with the help of a footstool)...

Hey brewheads, I'm considering a kegerator setup in my kitchen, and I'd like to know if anyone has thought about the problem of small hands getting a hold of the tap handle. Is is possible to lock the taps to prevent beer being dispensed into Spiderman plastic cups? Cheers! Mark

Wow, that's some great step by step photos in there! I'm gonna be even more cautious when I get this running. Thanks to everyone for sharing their knowledge.

Hey everyone. I've got a Primus cast iron 4 ring gas burner that I've just attempted to put together. http://primuscoi.com.au/print1.php?product_id=23 My question relates to the brass (?) discs on the right part that screw toward the main burner part on the left. Are these meant to cover the...

BA DOOM CHING! :D

Roll on 2009. I'll have something I want to give to others by then! :)

I noticed yesterday that the airlock has a good chance of taking in air as i opened the door in the laundry, which suggests to me some kind of pressure change in the room. I might keep the fermenter out of there in future. I'll also give the bucket style airlock a go too. That dimmer idea with...

I did have some brews in a walk-in linen cupboard, which was great for consistency, but it's too cold at the moment (about 15C) and the fermentation was getting stuck. I have a brew belt and that's too hot, I recall seeing the temp getting to 30C odd. I gotta get to the bottom of this air...

Thanks Chris. My aeration method is shaking the crap out of the fermenter for a minute before I pitch yeast. I used the dried American Ale yeast, US-05 I think it is, rehydrated in pre-boiled water cooled to 35-40C. I'm thinking my laundry is acting like a hothouse in the day, although I'm...

I am talking WA litres of course. Good pickup!

No, the yeast is in there. In fact it's overdue to be bottled by a few days.
