2015 Vic Christmas in July Case Swap

[Grainer]

True, but I'd rather not be taking the finished beer for a drive to the barrel though.

I should be making up a frame for them in the cellar tonight

Pics to follow

How are you making it..>? I got to do one as well

 

[Yob]

If love to do it out of fancy steel but it's going to be timber

 

[Grainer]

Yeah.. I have a welder ..but I think wood will be a lot cheaper for now. I could probably ferment out 60-70L at my house then cube it for transport ??? depends how you want to do it?? and how quick you want it??

 

[droid]

rice paper!

as long as it does its job on the day it'll all be good

 

[MartinOC]

You're joking, right??? :wacko:

 

[droid]

ok it's not rice paper

 

[MartinOC]

OK then! I was going to ask you if you knew that the word "Gullible" has been removed from the OED.... :lol:

 

[idzy]

Im in and happy to do whatever.

Thinking of welding up a frame to allow my barrel to be lifted with a fork lift / pallet jack

 

[Danscraftbeer]

Please someone make a youtube of all this. B)

 

[MartinOC]

Bigger than the Baddaginnie Bowls-club annual raffle, that's for sure!

Mate, you're in Melbourne - COME UP!

Edit: I've got a plan to time-lapse record the whole thing & I'm sure others will record it in other ways....

 

[DU99]

don't just pop in..

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

Looks like ill need my cocktail tux!

 

[MartinOC]

There will be prizes for the most sartorially splendid attendant ('though I reckon Cocko will win it for the mankini, just for sheer audacity... -_- ).

 

[droid]

don't just pop in..

i give pop-inners a big dose of nudity at this household, it should be transferrable

I have been travelling a lot with work lately so I am miles behind schedule. I got mine brewed and cubed - but I need to throw some yeast at it soon if it is going to be ready. At this stage I'll be sending my swap bottles along if the ferment all goes well, but I doubt I will be in attendance.
