Heh. So it is.

I think I saw it in the thread earlier, can't find it now though... What's the bottle preference? I've got the PET 700's I normally use, as well as the glass 650's & glass 750's (recycled longnecks).

1. Yob - APA
2. Mardoo - Two Takes on Three Cascades
3. Idzy - California Common Steam Ale
4. Technobabble66 - probably a Fat Yak style PA done w kolsch yeast.
5. GrumpyPaul - "Grumpy's Scottish Litter" (Scottish 80 to be aged on bourbon soaked oak)
6. Grainer - Robust Porter.. plus some top up of something else..not enough bottles as it is going in a comp
7. Mick (mofox1) - Citra APA
8. Relaxed brewer
9. MartinOC
10. Midnight Brew

Hey mate you can take my spot. I've been overseas and was on the reserves when I left so I don't have anything ready.
 
I know I'm cutting it fine, but I finally brewed my swap beer last weekend & bought the yeast for it today

It's a Chai spiced Milk Stout & I went with some WLP004 Irish Ale Yeast

I'll pitch it tomorrow & bottle in 10 - 14 days, should be ready to drink a week or so after the swap

:beerbang:
 
I know I'm not in the swap, but I bottled a batch today. Thankfully it will be ready to drink by the 19th July.

I think I will have run out of supply by then. Can't brew it quick enough. And it would be very embarrassing turning up to my first swap with bought beer :(

Lol... I'm watching my dwindling stocks right now... 50L about to be bottled, but nothing on the shelves!

Edit: Or is that "stocks dwindling"... as I'm affecting that result right now?

I showed up to my first swap with bought beer (tipped out 100 longnecks due to infection a couple weeks prior), and now I'm showing up to my second swap with bought beer (haven't brewed for two years). Both swaps at the same address. What a sad c^#t... lol
 
Yob said:
Didn't you brew the other week? Tell me you did!!
Yep, knocked out an IPA last Sunday on the old brew rig that I sold to a mate. First time I've brewed in 2 years and still managed to hit the targets ;-) First time the system has been used in 2 years also.

Popped into Grain and Grape today and bought a couple of fermenters and some other bits and bobs. Called into The Good Guys after that and bought a new 120L Westinghouse fridge, after a small mod to the freezer box the fermenter fits perfectly. Going back to pick up another fridge tomorrow.
Got the Braumeister rundown by the young bloke at G&G today, and looked at a Kegorator, might have to take the trailer with me on the next trip there in a few weeks time....... ;-)
 
Just sampled my 2nd stubbie....I thinks its good to go. I hope its up to your standards guys. Lucky I brewed a double batch, lovin it in fact.

Just moved myself to the non swap list to free up a spot if anyone wants to grab it. Im waiting on parts for a fermentation fridge build that are still expected to arrive sometime in the next 2 weeks. I just feel its not going to arrive in enough time. If it comes in time I'll set it up ferment and be a drinking date added to the list. Alternatively if no one takes the spot I do have a batch of foreign extra stout to swap but will need a few months before drinking. Just not happy where it is at currently and needs a little more time to condition.

I'm going to blend out the Belgian triple IPA monster, had a glass yesterday and while killer, it's a bit on the syrupy side, a very deceptive %15 (ish) flavour and aroma were not affected by the blended glass I had yesterday but made it a bit more quaffable.. Just about time for the keg hop addition :)
 
Hi Guys,

I'm new here but was just sent over because I hear about this swap/meetup. I'd love to come along if it's open.

I'm pretty new to homebrewing but I have some homebrew to swap but I'm not sure if I have enough. I have 19 bottles of Almond Chocolate Stout.

If this isn't enough it would be good to come along and meet up with people anyway and maybe get some tips.

Meats - it appears spot no.10 has been vacated by Midnight Brew. However as the are 24 swappers you need 24 bottles.

So you can either add yourself to the swappers or non swappers list.

Simply copy the full list above, edit accordingly and repost.

Yob - You might need to add Meats tot he mailing list so he gets the details
 
Thanks for letting me know. I'll come along as a non-swapper this time but I'll bring some of my beer to share anyway. Would be good to get some informed feedback!
