I just finished a 100% wheat with H Mittlefreuh plugs. They smelt fantastic in the boil. First time I have used plugs and can see why people love them. Can't wait to taste this one.

Congrats amita (and all recent others) on your first AG! You're going to love that kolsch amita. (I wiped out the no-chill beside your brew seeing as that one was actually chilled.)

Had a lovely brew of maltycultural's too on Saturday. Top stuff and I'm going to steal his recipe.

Just updated Harry's figures and mine though I may have missed a brew here or there.

Cheers,
Pat

My longest brewday ever - started at 08:45 and just finished the cleanup (minus putting away) in time to watch MASH with a glass of Fents' Kolsch.

This batch of a kinda Austramerican pale ale was my first with BB Ale as the base malt (purchased in the most recent bulk buy and crushed with Thirsty Boy's Marga mill). I also borrowed Thirsty Boy's immersion chiller as a test and I have to say that if, like me, you do not have the luxury of a dedicated brewing space, I cannot recommend highly enough that you do *not* bother with it - go NoChill. It was just a nightmare.

I've recently been contemplating the differences between the beers from my big and small systems and thought that chilling might be the issue. If it is, then my quaffers will have to taste the way they do until I can shoehorn the flavour I am looking for out of the plastic jerry.

I think I am able to now add my name to the register. My IPA brew in a bag is boiling away as I type. It's a big relief to have finally had a go at all grain.
 
Well done 65b. Must be a big day for new brewers today. Katie and Lloyd are over here right now and have also just mashed in their first all-grain. Looks like a top day for the register. Best of luck 65b!!!
 
Pistol thanks for the good wishes. Well I started off with two mates 1 who started off k+k with me 10 years ago and will never change (he made it very clear today) and a non brewer (he thinks Melbourne bitter is Gods gift), and at flame out they both shook my hand thanked me for my hospitality and took off to drink at the pub. At the end of the day it was SWMBO holding the funnel and helping out and telling me how good the brew smelled. Boy does it smell good.

Here is a piccy of my current brew in a bag Pale Ale in my new 23 ltr Carboy and the Demijohn of BIAB sampler I got from the Vic Case Swap the other week.
