    Beerfingers Goes K&k

    OK, First Some History: so way back last year I had a bout of infected beers. After checking my sanitation process and troubleshooting the issue, the only rational explanation was airbourne infection, primarily during the dry hop after fermentation had begun. So, I needed a closed system, or...

    Does Biab Make Extract Redundant?

    Knowing full well that this thread will probably turn into a derailed barrage of contradictory opinions and irrelevant information.... I read in another thread that moving from K&K to all Extract or K&Bits is now redundant due to the ease of BIAB (cant remember the exact term used). Having...

    Beerfingers Bog

    High Kids, Well after 5 months of non-brewing, I finally got off my arse and thought i would just chuck a quick one in. But I'm going to start again because I want to refine what I already know.

    Dwrahahb?

    Just bottled my first lager, probably not my best beer... Anyway, Definitely got the rotten egg smell during the ferment, and in taste tests as expected and didn't worry about it at all. But as I understood it, the lagering process should clear most of this up. I had it lagering for 2 weeks at...

    Just popped in Dan Murphys and thought I'd give Little Creatures Bright Ale a crack. usually I'll go an amber or golden ale, maybe an IPA of LC or JS of Aussie beer or get something imported.
