Just the time to be trying to hold a lager at 10 in a suss fermentation fridge. <_<

Warren -

Bah!! She's creeping up to 13 degrees.

Looks like I'm going from a CAP to a CACA.

Just hope the S189 doesn't throw too much stinky stuff. I'm just hoping the 8 degree pitch saves the day diacetyl-wise.

Warren, i ferment mine at 12c with no problm. A local brewer here has been brewing with S189 at ale temps & the beers have still been super clean with no fruitiness. I'm not recommending high temps, but I reckon you'll be fine.

cheers Ross

The SA gumbyment should reimburse us home brewers for lack of supply of beer for the coming months due to not been able to brew with atleast 3 ctns of Coopers Sparkling. Oh thay should make that Long necks aswell

Oh I gave up on the lawn ages ago...I'm more concerned about my roses, vegs and herbs.

I heard somebody say the other day that Roses are pretty close to drought tolerant. :unsure:

I got a rose bush down the backyard and "never" water the bugger. Grows out of control.

The words Acid rest spring to mind here. In my brewery it is about 44c at present and foolishly I have a yeast waiting in the wings for tomorrow.

Here in Adelaide they are still talking another 4 days of near 40c. Who said we didn't get summer this year !!

I fixed mine with a lawn mower. Took a couple of "accidental" attempts but it no longer needs any water

So we all turn our aircons up and hope that burning all that extra coal doesn't add to next years heat wave?

We haven't turned our AC on yet. Here's hoping we don't have to. Its 28 in the house right now and I hope we get a cool night because last night it hardly went below 30 outside.
Wednesday! Wednesday! Bring on Wednesday!
