A quick post to thank Mr & Mrs Chap chap for their excellent hospitality yesterday & this morning with thanks also going to browndog (Barbecue duties) & Brucey & Renae for the excellent tucker their smoker produces.
Good to meet up with a lot of brewers I had previously never met & also good to see all the familiar faces once again.

Great time, great company & great entertainment! What more could a bloke ask for. :beer:

just did a brew, I think around 50% I should have taken the opportunity to go as a "training" excercise, can't wait to see the photo's getting sick of looking at redtube :)
 
Hell what a brew day' Bogan beer and boobs,'
The $100 Craftbrewer chinese hopaward for the best Bogan had to go to Ross with his 'nutter'footy shorts old 'ranga rug'from the Nineties and snug fitting Queenslander footy shirt complete will accentuated beer gut , sorry I am told it was real. Rossses carefull plaited Viking 'ranga'moustache and' mo' was delicately gluedto his upper and lower lips the heat of the mashtun made the 'face fungus'fall off repeatedly in freshly mashed wort on the high tech launch of the
'BrewMagic brewing sculptor' attracted the attention of a Curious brewer hoping to get a discount.

Excitement was raised as the anticipation of strippers arrives, only to find it was Squire and two nervous looking goats arrived, the dissapointment changed to excitement again ,as home brewers hopes were raised there may be 'audience participation 'of a Bestiality show ,the goats, just scampered off down to the river and things returned to normal.

Whilst there was no boobies I was sleeping in the room with Schooey and Franko and saw enough Man boobies to put me off the real ones for life.

Chappo was awesome as. Brewers started up therbrewrigs with the power drain on Chappos garage was such that he the power went off and he became the 'human fusebox'that electric personality running around satisfying stessing mashers, with General power outlets coming from all his spare orfices.

Towards the end of the evening the liberated brewers ran towards the river, shedding there clothing stopping dead by the edge of the bank when it was casually mentioned ,the last Seen crocadile attack on a human in the same river,was only in 1906 ,was enough for them to sheepishly gather their clothes, an listen around the camp fire to characters of 'Yoda' 'The little Chinese lady','Anthony Banderos' and the excess profanity coming from the' two Russians,' courtesy of Franko and Schooey.

Special thanks to Missus Chappo whose patience was tested at times ,with brewers bringing muddy footprints
onto her just cleaned floor,Fusing the box ,and depriving her of all those apliances electrical and givingpreference to beer over the food she had kindley cooked. And leaving her house in a general state of turmoil.

Also thanks to Mr and Missus Squire who in the 'Smokin Stephensons Rocket'. Cooked smoked pizzas and succulet chiken wings .
Guest appearances by Zizzle Aka the John Butler trio.
Les the Wiezman with new 'Richard Crainium' haircut but Tidal Pete took out the honours of' Golem' look a like. from' Lord of the rings.'

The fallen brewers on the Sunday morning were scattered everywhere ,but amazingly came to life like the Michael Jackson Zombie short 'Thriller'
With no real headache, but probably a little sleep deprived ,after hugging there 20 liters of warm wort in a 'No Chill cube 'all night long.

'Eternal enthusiasm' went to Doug Chappo's scrumming partner who nearly set fire to next door due to his low slung burner on the biggest kettle ever. Everyone who passed by touched his hop sock sack dangling from the tent leaching green matter into the kettle, Dougs claim to not brewing to style had brewers only guessing what was the green matter.

Our IT specalist Bonj who tried live webcam streaming was defeated as Chappo was so pissed he could not remember his password which he too late eventually remembered was BEER.

Tommy brewed an awesome memorable Dark Munich beer .

Glad too see Screwtop vertical and in form with a pleasent greeting on his beer glass, f%k off your making no sense at all.

Brown dogs atttention to MasterChef on Tv this year avoided him burning the Snags on the BBQ

Likable eccentric this year goes to 'Battered Sav' he is totally Bonkers,but brews an awesome beer.

Thanks Chappo and everyone for making us feel so welcome

Pumpy:)
 
Once again a big thanks to Chap chap and his family for letting us invade his home. Had a great brewday despite Geoff, Gavo and Winkle giving me a hard time at the end of the brew <_< . Sorry i had too sneak at at dawn but had family commitments.

Did anyone find an electric cord that I left behind its for my HLT :( .

Thanks to all involved with food prep and serving...Fantastic


Cheers Brad
 
My mobile phone rang this afterneen while i was brewing. I looked at it, a mobile number and thought...... :( a break down in a mine i will have to try and fix.

It was Pumpy :)

Do you mind if we drop in this arvo.......... See you then i said.

Pumpy, Franko and Hogan dropped by for a couple beers and a laugh. It really caped off a great day for me!

Frank...... cook a big pork chop on the grill and layer it with that sauce mate !!!!! its sooo good with pork!

had a laugh as they were reversing out the driveway......... had to pull a dead maggie out of the grill....... my kids were horified. Is it ok dad?

such is the result of a long road trip.

cheers
 
Mate i reckon a 9 to 9.30 mash in and this is the recipe after adjustment for a 69L batch....i just hope it balances out as well as the original.

Well the recipe changed a little bit and for some reason I was thinking I was only aiming for 60L. Just done the calcs and ended with around 55L @ 1061 for an efficiency of 84%.............not bad for brewing "In the ghetto" :D thanks bonj I will be singing that tune each time I set up the brewery.

Another great do! Thanks to Chappo and Mrs Chappo, lot of frikken work goes into organising and hosting these days, top effort from the Chappo's thanks for hosting and your hospitality. And also to the Sqyres, Bruce and Rene for backing up the Chappo's. The smoked foods were fantastic, pizza is soooo good out of the wood fired oven.

Hope we left the place in a reasonable condition, with the exception of the BBQ, PaulWolf buggered off when it caught fire, Browndog stepped in and cooked on undaunted, burning everything to a crisp, but at least he didn't give in, not even when Chappo turned off the gas, no, he moved seamlessly to the second BBQ and continued on. You need a big glass of HTFU Paul :lol:

Honestly when I saw this bloke in Ross' store I didn't know it was Ross without my glasses, was thinking who the f#^k is this yobbo.

Huge thanks to Mr and Mrs Chappo for another cracker of an evening!

The dad and bro both enjoyed festivities, and whilst a little tired, both them and myself pulled up almost perfect.

The Sqyres' smoker produced some amazing food - big thanks to Mr and Mrs Sqyre for their hard work yet again!

Awesome to catch up with some of you derelict bastards again, and fantastic to meet some new brewers!

And great to see Screwtop up and about too!

Cheers
