Hi Stefan, ROs’, where to start? To answer your question first, not exactly but there are issues with cheap Chinese membranes and what they wont stop and how low they can get the ppm. you want your RO to be 1 or 2 ppm max, not 10 or 20 and you want it to stop the ammonia part of any chloramine.

I have one of these its very good, don't rush in, I will give you some RO and you can give it a try I will be in Vic for a week I’l pmu when I get back. Now you will have to read Brun Water and work out what minerals you need (I have them np) or ask here its a very good knowledge base :-}

Your not Stefan who flys r/c down the beach in HH?

ps check your water pressure RO units have min operating requirements but.

Looks like I need to upgrade my RO system. I have a PSI countertop RO system which I use for brewing. The filters are getting a bit over 12 months old now and PPM came back at 9 for the batch I did yesterday. Should I be looking at upgrading to the unit you've linked scomet?

My initial answer to that is how does your beer taste and have you checked your filters I haven't had a look at mine yet but the (low) volume I'm putting through I'm expecting them to last a *t lot longer than 1 year (they have), I'd give Peter a ring at psi and chat him about it, did your ppm start low and creep up to 9?

Good sale on at the moment for Triple J Homebrew @ eBay - 20% with no price-jacking. I have no association but have bought a lot of stuff off them over the years and found them to be great. Basic Fermentasaurus $107.99 + delivery is pretty cheap if you are in the market... I just picked up a nitro set I have been eyeing off for a while.

Good find, also if buying items make sure you select ones with + postage costs and just request a total before paying, that will save on the postage costs.

Cant seem to find anything that mentions 20% discount on the ebay store or the site
 
Thats exacly what im looking at getting, few packets of yeast also. Been wondering whether to stock up on hallertau , centennial and citra. Work out to be about $27 for 500g. Bargain!
Don't suppose the code means you need to "Pick it up" from the store? Anyone successfully used the code and got their order shipped?

Yep, I asked for Express shipping. The t&c of the code dont require pickup. I dont believe trippleJ does pickup TBH.
