I'm no expert but I think ipswich rd annerly is the closet. If it is still there. Otherwise a supermarket that stocks hb gear

 

[Mattese]

Yep, the one at Annerley would be my pick there. I've only been there a couple of times but seemed to have the full range of that sort of thing.

Do a "scratch" ginger beer! Much nicer. Grab some ginger root from the supermarket and some LDME and Sugaz and use a nice ale yeast like US05.

I do this one occasionally:

24L
1kg LDME
1.5kg Dextrose
200g Grated Ginger Root
Teaspoon Chilli powder
Teaspoon Clove Powder
US05 @ 20C

I just bung it all in the fermenter and top up with cold tap water.

Jeez, that looks easy! Might have to have a crack at it. What sort of gravity should I be looking for?

I never take any readings with this kinda thing - I just chuck it all in and bottle it when through the gladwrap it's not fizzing anymore.

Beersmith or that spreadsheet should give you the numbers if you need them. It's a pretty chilled out ginger beer - low alc and mild ginger taste and slightly sweet. It's great cooled to about 2C and it's 35C outside.

Yeah been there a few times in the early days of my homebrewing. Good for cans etc... but wouldn't use the yeasts or hops. none of it is refrigerated and the hops look a little briwnish... but for K&K and water purifcation h34r: it i'd be ok

Craftbrewer is at Capalaba now. Probably 6 of one, half a dozen of the other but traffic wise for me I would head to Capalaba.

S189 @ 19c FTW

 

[Nick JD]

I've done it. It ain't "clean". Fruit city.

Run two brews from a split wort with no late hop additions (at 11C and 19C) and you'll taste the yeast's effect.

Ross has been chroming too many hops.
