All, Due to the realities of family life, my brewing gear has been collecting dust over the past few years. I am about to move to a new place and sadly there just isn't enough space for brewing gear to come with me. This is all listed on FB Marketplace, and I am open to offers from AHBers to...

My keg system has a leak which I think I have isolated down to the vent hole on the front of the regulator. I apologize for the blurry photo, there is not very good light next to my fridge. I have turned the gas on and set the regulator to 10 psi and tested the JG fittings and there is no...

I had a schooner of LCPA last night at the Australian hotel and it tasted like Tooheys New that had been dry hopped with a Galaxy teabag. What happened to that thick malt, chinook and cascade goodness? LCPA is definitely a beer that has gone downhill over the last few years. I had also had a...

Hi Guys, I have about 20kgs left of a sack of JW Pilsner grain I bought just over 12 months ago. Its uncrushed and has been stored in an airtight container. Will it still mash alright? I have heard of grains going slack, but I thought that was for crushed grain. I'm going to give it a go...

Hi All, If I buy a Keg King carbon dioxide bottle, am I locked into swapping/refilling at Keg King retailers, or can I swap it for a my keg on legs bottle at one of their suppliers? Just looking into it at this stage, I don't want to get locked into an inconvenient supply situation.

Ok, my life over the past 5 years has now come full circle. After leaving the Shire 5 years ago for the Ale rich pubs of London, I have returned to Australia living in Kirribilli for a while before finally buying a house back in the Shire. I am now faced with the challenge of getting my AG rig...

I made a batch of sparkling ale on Sunday and no chilled. I asked my brother to ferment it for me as I am time poor this week and won't get a chance to put it down. His garage is a constant 22 degrees which is a plus! Apparently he said he rinsed the fermenter out with pink stain remover and...

Hi Guys, I just picked up/bought two beer engines which have just been taken off the bar at The Gunmakers . Thanks to Jeff - aka stonch.blogspot.com, who is the landlord there. I was just wondering what you guys do so that you can use them with Corny kegs. I have searched through the archives...

Hi Guys, I am considering going down the 90L Aluminium Stock Pot path in my Brewery (as Batz, Jayse and Chiller have). I have a few questions. 1. What kind of taps/ fittings did you guys use? In How to Brew, Palmer warns of using brass or stainless in aluminium as it will corrode really fast...

I am curently constructing a new counterflow chiller and I'ved found six metres nof Nylex 3/4 inch hose. Is this long enough for a CF chiller??

I just thought I would start a thread to comment on NZ Cascade flowers which I picked up from ESB a couple of months ago. I used them in an APA which is pretty much the same grainbill as Jayse's Skunkfart PA, except I used the 8.7% AA flowers for all hop additions. I have to report that I am...

I am just wondering what people use when conditioning their lagers?? I normally just pop it in a jerry can and place in the fridge, but i have an empty keg handy at the moment and i think i may use this instead? does anyone else do this??

I'll contribute to the NSW case.

As most of us have seen in Pumpy's details that he lives in Camden and claims that it is god's country. I am now going to officially dispute this! Go to www.answers.com and type in God's Country. I see it comes up with all sorts of info about the Sutherland Shire and not one bit of info about...

Hi All, Does anyone know where i can get a picnic tap in Sydney?? I know that i can get an online order from Grain and Grape, but i'd prefer to buy from a local suppier of possible. Cheers Tim

Hi All, I am going to be doing a resupply of my grain store shortly as im down to my last few kg's of JW trad ale malt. I want to take advantage of the winter weather and get a few lagers under my belt and was considering changing my base malt from JW trad ale to JW pils. What are the main...

Hi, Im thinking of making another James Squire amber clone. I have already tried one following Doc's recipe and found that there was way to much crystal and it came out too dark, sweet and heavy. I have decided to scale back the quantities to something like below: Squire Amber clone Type: All...
