My output can maybe stretch to 100L (depending on gravity) so we'll be looking for another 200L system by the looks of it..

No effing oats!!
 
If we can get RelaxedBrewer to attend (peer pressure!), & whiteferret brings his gear, I think they both have 200L kettles, so we could probably handle the volume.
That's boil though. Not sure how we do the mash...
 
I just had a flash of brilliance... (then the boss said Paul put your pants back on.)

Given that we are 5 months away and already have 20 swappers - rather than cap it what if we split it into two swap groups.

Say we get 30 swappers - we have group A 1 to 15 and group B16 to 30.

If you where keen you could go in both groups and offer up 2 beers and come home with all 30.

To add to the fun on the day attneding swappers from group a and b could "trade" if they wanted a particulr beer out of the other group....

Or am I just being silly???
 
People will drop out Paul. Just have a reserves list - if that blows out to 20-30 as well then maybe two groups but I reckon that idea looks logistically fraught.
 
Edit: leave pass obtained.

Okay guys, with doubts at this stage about whether RB will be around with his system, I have been having a look around for a big kettle solution for us. I know this only solves part of the equation, but managed to pick this up really cheap.

Should be able to have a frame welded up for it (with the help of my brother), but have no idea what size burner it will need. It holds 600 litres, so it should be more than enough for a 260 litre batch, which is our current requirement.

Cheers,
Idzy

Right guys. Managed to pick this up at a local flea market the other day and the price was too good to deny.

Looks like we've got that burner sorted Idzy. :blink:

Hahaha! I fell off my chair, you legend, that was a pissa!
 
You'll be right mate, well cap at 24, then as it draws near there will inevitably be a few drop off.

;)
 
I don't know if I am ready for this, I probably won't ever be.
 
Or dance pole. Either way we're winning.
