I do not drink schooners or stubbies therefore it is too hard for me to calculate. (After all I was only educated to 8 grade.) However, as a craftbrewer, when I have a drink, I fill a jug and I do not have an alcohol free day...If you want to work it out just how much I drink, I can tell you...

Sorry fellows. I have to pull out this time. Cheers, PeterS...

Yeah, that's the one. I guess I was in the wrong page of the site when I made my bookmark. PeterS... :beer:

I was searching for some new recipes and I came across this topic. Have a look at the site, I think it is interesting! Free Beer Cheers PeterS... :beerbang:

Fair enough. In my case that is also easy as it is stamped in the rubber as IN for Gas and OUT for Beer. No doubt that some are not marked though. In this case, have a look at the dip tube inside the keg. You want the longest tube close to the bottom to ensure that you get the maximum beer...

I have not had any trouble so far. I learned early in the piece that the disconnects are different colour for a reason. Gray gor Gas and Black for Beer Cheers[b] PeterS... :beer:

I use a HERMS simply because wanted to experiment and see the results. One day I decided to purchase a convoluted chiller and my home made coil of copper pipe became redundant. I hate to throw things out and ended up using it in my HLT. I must admit I was sceptical at first and I hated...

I named my "Oasis Brewery" as it is a little haven amongst all the junk under the Queensland style house. Cheer PeterS... :beerbang:

I consider personal likes and disikes in the equation weather to use fining or not. When you formulate your brew recipe you anticipate a certain color range. If it is a dark Ale obviously there is no need for finings. On the other hand, Pilseners tend to be on the light side. In this case...

It is interesting to note that we have as many variations to its use as we have brewers. I see that some introduce it into the boil 20 min, some 10 min and some 5 minutes before flame out. Just to be different at the time I purchased some whirlflock, I did some research and on that basis I...

I also missed this thread for awhile. I naturaly thought that your birthday Batz is on Saturday, the day you are having the party. Sorry I could not make it but I can assure you that I will be having a drink on you as I entertain the crowd here. Happy belated wishes mate. Cheers, PeterS...

My keg fridge is set to 4c but I do not trust any of my thermometers especially the one attached to the fridge. Therefore, in order to ensure the propoer drinking temperature, I keep tasting it to see at what stage it is at. I must say to date I found no problems with the temperature. Than...

Itis not rustic enough Batz. It is missing the snake in he corner. Apart from that very nice and tempting to just sit in the corner and sample the goods. Cheers. PeterS.... :beer:

Johhno, I have a feeling that you are going to get some varied comments. It is hard to make a judgement just by looking at a picture. Having said that, It looks quite good to me. It seems to have some flour consistency but there are also some intact husks to do the filtering. Your real test...

I am not so convinced. Last year I had bottles that exploded with two different batches(months apart). Both of those times I used carbonation drops. On the last occasion I only carbonated three bottles and kegged the rest. Two of the bottles exploded. I carefully released the pressure on...

Be buggered..says Batz. If a freight company driver has not learned to drive a truck or are not prepared to unload than they should not be in the trade., There, I said it on behalf of Batz...(I picked up mine share of grains from Deception Bay five days ago and that is half way to Batz Cave)...

Over 2000 members. Just imagine the power of Bulk Buy. Now there is a thing. We should be able attract sponsors with that many members... Chers:beerbang: PeterS....

Grains arrived safely and stored in my silo. Thanks Batz and Jason for organising this. Cheers, PeterS.... :beer:

Jez, I did say surface mail. US99 + 31shipping via surface mail comes to US130.00 at todays conversion (1 AUD = 0.7378783 USD) comes to AUD $176.00 forgeting the cents. economy air shipping is US$55 which would make it AUD $209. Those fogures I got from Fred at Crankandstein today. Cheers...
