A close friend of mine has very bad glucoma, and has taken to using "alternative" medicines as a way of helping their condition. They love beer, and I have been toying with the idea of making them something with a bit of a herbal remedy included in it, its taking its toll on their happiness...

Okay, I have a problem - I dont have any spare vessels to rack off my dunkelweizen in order to add raspberries to it in secondary .. usually i dont even seconday my weizens, i dump them into a keg and let them ages a little in there - i like them fresh off the ranks and green for flavour ...

.. after doing my dark-sauvin on the weekend, the hop struck me as being grand for a weizen.. not sure if anyone has used it before, but this is the recipe that I am using. ive started the mash already .. its the hopping that I am wondering about - a hefeweizen shouldnt have much of a hop...

Okay .... so, I have a partial dunkelweizen that iw ant to do. The problem is, is that I am just doing infusion mashes into an esky. I have been trying to get this right for a bit but it jsut isnt working out very well ... I always end up adding too much water. I have of 3.2 kilos of grain...

As im sue many of you have customised your promash ingrediants profiles, i was wondering if any of you could share your ingrediants database? im finding that there are a lot of grains and ingrediants/hops etc missing that are more specific to australia and its taking a long time to track them...

Well, i havnt done any brews for a while, so im planning my next batches... as always, i cant keep well alone and i have to bastardise every batch i do in some way, so this always leads to looking for new ingrediants i happened upon a shop that sells all manner of teas - everything really, but...

My stupid scale has decided to bunk out on me in the middle of my brewing session. I have the mash going and it'll be about another half an hour until I have to sparge and boil ... Is there any way I can measure out the grams of hops without a scale? I know its a long shot ... at the moment my...

Well, im on holiday so Im doing my mid-week brew tomorrow. I have in mind a raspberry/honey weizen using a 3333 yeast and a partial mash ... I have been using PErle hops lately for my bittering for the weizens - but I just dont know if I am happy with the flavour, so wanted to try something...

Okay, im having a problem with a brew I did... I put it down ten days ago, and the things now stuck. It was an IPA, with a gravity around 1056 or so. I used an American Ale 2 yeats from wyeast ...it w3as plenty aerated, lots and lots of splashing ...however. I didnt have time to make a...

Someone referred GMK lately as being the man to talk to about all things keg setups - and allegedly he sell/knows where to get hold of some good pieces? However, I cant seem to get through to his PM box. I finally managed to get hold of a small chest freezer last weekend, and its pay week -...
