I'll add to the appreciation for hosting... what a top spot and great hospitality!

Apologies i couldn't stay for the full tilt, as i succumbed to the pressure to return home with at least some dignity.

Thankfully Ralph i had left before the cleanup and only used the gloves for the bag.
Here i am talking shit about people using skyhooks to lift the bag, busting a nut holding 12+kg of wet grain above a firing pot while it drained... me thinks a skyhook is not such a bad idea now
As for the brewing, all i can say is i'm pleased i was brewing a Brown Ale

I see a pube!!!!

I reckon you put it there.

Actually your suggestion of a water filter has much merit after seeing the colour of the tap water initally (Lukes batch had reasonably clear water compaired to ours)

The seller is the 'water filter factory' based on the sunny coast. Got my sediment and carbon filter, bracket, actual filter inserts and all associated fittings for $77 delivered in 2 days.
Good service and amazing result considering the quality before...

THIS seems to be the place Dan.
I'll be going over there for a carbon filter sometime this week.

Ta mate, good to meet you, I'll post up the recipe tonight.

There must have been some work on the water mains locally, judging by the brown tinge to the tap water we used. (Well that or Kilcoy are dumping thier raw sewage into Sommerset Dam again h34r: ).

You get used to that after a while and not that many side effects really.Plus! you can get a job at the circus when you grow up.
