My Brewery is "Angry Cork Brewery". My mate came over with a bottle of wine and the cork has an angry face made out of the darker bits of cork. My first AG was "Hot Hands Pale Ale" I knocked the Manafold apart during the mash and had to go in with rubber gloves to get it back together.

Hi All, I too have been sponging on AHB wealth of knowledge here! After a brief hiatus from brewing I'm keen to get back into it (Got rid of the missus). I've done a hand full of all grain brews and after about 6years I have finally completed my grain crusher, now I just need to make a decent...

G'day PM sent as well Cheers

Correct me if i'm wrong but I don't think his coupler will fit CUB kegs, tooheys or coopers maybe??

G'day, Mine was a simple APA, when I was mashing in I knocked the copper manifold and I had to reach in with the rubber gloves to reconnect it, it is now known has "Hot Hands Pale Ale" The beer turned out great, it is now my flagship brew. Cheers Hawkesy

G'day All, I've just got the AG bug back after a brief exit from the brewing scene. I was happy to read that others have been messing around with electronics/nerd stuff and brewing. I am currently working on a complete temperature control system for my brewery I have utilsed a PIC...

Fegi, From memory the Hops were Target pellets, looking at my promash recipe I had them down as a 22g for 60 min, however I am pretty sure I threw a few in for aroma. I can't find the final promash version, maybe it's at work. Organised as usual! Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers Hawkesy

G'day fellow brewers, I just had a superb sample of SteveSA's On ya back for 80/. All that I can say is: Wow Sitting here in 43 deg heat this beer (traditionally designed for much cooler climates) is F#%^ing grousse (pardon the piss weak pun if you get it) carbonation is spot on, color and...

Aarons IPA, Not a bad drop, mine was also a boy, however after the head settled it proved to be a smooth ale with a nice balance (Which was a welcome releif after one of my rye IPA's). Good work Aaron. Cheers Hawkesy and Colesy

G'day all, Sorry about the late reply. I'm still in I will probably pass them on GMK at Fridays BBC Get together. Cheers

I emailed Tobins to enquire about their hand held immersion heater. They emailed me back with the following reply: "Please contact the South Australian distributor for Grimwood, Charles Cookson on 08 8240 3200." I am yet to ring them as I went out on a bender and spent shite loads of cash...

Nice looking unit, I didn't see any ratings for the output, you may have to combine it with a solid state relay, does it come with a thermocouple?

G'day Beer, The main reason I rack to secondary is to get the wort off the yeast cake, this reduces a thing called autolysis (The yeast eats itself when it starts to run out of fermentables and can give a vegimite flavour). I usually go 7 days primary, 7 days Secondary, 7+ days cold...

Jayse, How did the Rye IPA finish up. I was thinking about doing it for my next brew, did you stick to the same recipe? Promash gives me about 93 IBU!, I'm afraid, very afraid. Cheers Hawkesy

Irish Red in CC, hopefully bottling this weekend, Jury is out on the nest one, I was thinking an IPA maybe.

Yeah I was considering a Herms, however the temp changes take longer, probably not an issue. lots to think about

G'day all, I am thinking of building a RIMS system and I am not sure what sort of heating element to look for. I know the Yanks tend to use 240V elements and run them at 110V to improve the watt density. I guess we could acheive the same with some sort of voltage control to regulate the heat...
