LOL! Can you source those easy screw up hose clamps for me please?

I am seriously thinking about not turning up tomorrow. I'm totally buggered but my mind is still racing with ideas. Phone beer?

Sorry Katie, we are turning this into a QLD Case Swap thread.

Wonder if we can hit 1000 posts?

Stop the serious drinking Katie and Lloyd. Remember you are meant to be bringing over here tomorrow what you don't drink tonight. :angry:

I'm finding it hard to keep track of who brewed today as I have to keep doing brewing stuff.

I think so far today we have had... (fill in your own numbers if I have missed them )

SATURDAY BREWERS

Yeastie Beastie - 23+23+?

Well done to all, especially Katie and Chappo for organising the whole thing!

After a crazy couple of weeks I have finally had a chance to follow up on this big brewday! I did two brews in the end, each a little smaller in volume but adding up to more than a regular 150L batch on my big system. I did 80L of Bright Ale (Galaxy and US Cascade) and 90L of Mild, so a total of 170L.

Katie I will be in touch re payment etc, I haven't forgotten!

Here are some pics...

Same here KT. Not great on this spreadsheet. Might help if you can do the following for me ...

1. Remove my contribution on the spreadsheet (#7 - didn't get to brew in my name)
2. Edit the NSW Case Swap effort (# 41 on spreadsheet) we brewed (we think) 140 litres (no one accurately measured anything on the day). I'll go $0.50 per litre and will chase up the swappers to make contributions.
3. Where do we deposit the money ? Can't find it - I know its there but well, can't find it.

Well done you and your fellow conspirators - I'm proud to be associated with you !

 

[Katherine]

wow you both sound like you being slaking off only 320 litres of beer between the both of you...

charities

so either breast cancer foundation or rspca... cheers
