Cubes & Buckets - No Chill & Grain Storage [MELBOURNE]

[buckerooni]

I ended up getting about a litre of golden syrup out of my 10 odd cubes last time. Hello saving of $5! ca-ching!

Might also be interested in some 20 litre buckets too if there are any.

And you have a pm

 

[Jeansy]

I'm interested in 20l buckets also if available

I just tipped RIS in on top of it for an extra level

The biscuits have been selling like hot cakes, that means it's CUBES GALORE!!!

Let's see how a super low price moves them, we've got HEAPS! Funds alcoholic camping brewers, what better cause is that?!

12L cubes
4 for $10
10 for $20

Got a bunch of cubes available again. Finding these HEAPS more manageable than 20L ones. Easier on your back, easier to pour into the FV and are thicker walled than the larger ones.

Sorry but buckets are less common now so mostly unavailable.

I really agree... I haven't moved them much, but when I have, the two smaller ones are much easier than the big 20L cube!

On another note, are there any beers in particular the golden syrup won't mix well with? I don't really want to clean any of the cubes before I use them!

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

Arguably none, but if it was me I'd tend towards more brown Ale and darker beers that really will benefit greatly from some Golden syrup flavour...

so if i am using these to condition i can expect a bit of a bump in the final ABV?

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

Yeah around +0.005 gravity points we've been finding per cube [emoji3][emoji106]

I filled up 4 of these on Friday and got 4 different IPA's. Good stuff

Does the golden syrup go off? I have a heap that I haven't filled yet, but got a while ago. Wonder if I should start dumping the wort on top instead of cleaning it out.

I don't find the 20L cubes too bad but the 25L ones I have are a bit of a PITA. I used to use taps on them to transfer the wort to the FV, but they don't fit properly on the new cubes I have because the threads are half a turn shallower than the old cubes

ever seen golden syrup go off in your pantry?
so long as its not sitting out in the open there's no reason for it to i would have though.

 

[Nullnvoid]

True, but it also doesn't stick around too long in our pantry hahaha

 

[homebrewnewb]

i thought it was that kinda thing that got pushed back and forgotten about for few years. i will find mine and report back with the best before date.

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

There's no best before date on them so can only assume no need to worry?
