    Belgian candi sugar

    You could go full send and make your own from scratch. Probably on a par with growing your own barley. Or coffee. Like, you'd have to be really, really keen, but totally doable.

    Belgian candi sugar

    I used to get bottles of cheap corn syrup from asian grocers and use it in place of exorbitantly priced 'candi syrup'. For pale Belgians at least, I concluded it made FA difference. I'm certainly not the first to notice this...

    Sweetening Apple Cider With Lactose

    Add it whenever you like. Some point in the boil is probably a good idea. The yeast couldn't care less.

    Stainless Steel fermenters

    Invest is the word. I think buy once, cry once is a good rule of thumb with stainless. Frankly I think the 32L looks a bit chintzy. The pragmatist in me likes the Kegmenter for its flexibility and simplicity and ability to produce 70% ABV beer.

    Distilling botched batch of beer

    Yeah, give it a whirl. Old mate did it with Corona and made a 'drinkable' product. Dunno how bad your batch is, but thats a pretty low bar I'd say.

    Beer excise tax killing off Aussie craft breweries

    Absolutely. Anybody who imagines the ATO will repeal such a lucrative source of revenue they can justify under the 'harm minimization' banner is delusional. About as much chance as getting ciggies back to ten bucks a pack.

    Beer excise tax killing off Aussie craft breweries

    The beetroots' probably necked enough piss to keep half a dozen micros out of receivership. At least Joyce only humiliated himself publicly this time and not his long suffering wife and kids. Semi comatose and mumbling obscenities in the street, or ******* around with the help. What quality...

    Beer excise tax killing off Aussie craft breweries

    It may be a point of national shame, but Great Northern Crisp Lager has been the Toyota Hilux of beers in Australia for a few years running. 3.5% ABV .Makes a point of pointing out its 'low bitterness'. Its printed right on the box. A box that costs 60 bucks for 30 x 375 ml tubes of beer...

    There is. This forum is literally populated with people who produce their own beer. See those French farmers blocking highways and hurling shit and rotting produce at government buildings? That's how you get your message across. That will never happen here because we're to preoccupied...

    Beer excise tax killing off Aussie craft breweries

    As a small business owner, I'm not unsympathetic to the plight of breweries, and hate guberment intervention and the ATO as much as the next thinking person, but surely they have to shoulder some of the blame also. And sorry, all this hand waving about 'supporting local breweries' is just that...

    Commercial Glass Inquiry - Seeking Expert Opinions

    I'd recommend clear acrylic (Plexiglass), Lexan of some form of ballistic glass over regular 'shatters into spiky razor shards of death' type glass.
