Sorry guys I made a large purchase this week and the grain bins are all full. So I will have to take myself of the list. If it ends up being late January or Feb I would be interested again though.

Thanks
JJJ

I'm going to be overseas from New Years Eve to Australia Day. Hoping that if it gets delivered between those dates someone near me will be able to hold on to my sack for me until I get back. I live in East Brisbane.
Cheers
 
I am going to drop back to 1 bag from the 2 I had previously had listed, as I had to run out of some grain & need to buy some this week.

I will update the list & put Chubby in for a bag.

Hey guys, getting back into the build now that the christmas break is over.
A few of the people that I have been using have been extra busy in the lead up to christmas which has delayed things again.
I guess it's a good sign that tradies in Tas are busy though yeah?

The kiln is both simple and complex at the same time.
It's basically a small room with a perforated floor that the grain sits in and hot air is blown through.
The heat exchanger is something of my of my own design and is being built in house.
All the steel plates in the photos have been laser cut locally by probably the coolest machine I have ever seen.
The guy fabricating this is a friend of mine that is also in the process of setting up his own workshop here in Launceston. He's a real gun and just knows how to get stuff done.
The gas fitter that is building the valve train and control system is also a local guy, based in the Tamar Valley. He is ridiculously knowledgeable and has been a huge help in the design process. This guy sits on the accreditation board for gas fitters in SA and works on all kinds of gas powered everything in the Asia Pacific region. Not bad for a Tasmanian.
So at this stage, I've got a mostly built heat exchanger, all the pieces for the kiln itself, a rather large pressure blower, a bunch of ducting and bits and I'm just waiting on the burner and control system to be finished so it can be bolted on.
Here is a couple pics from the heat exchanger build so far:




 
Hey Guys, Relocated to Victoria so will need to sort local buy.
Good Luck Not For Horses eagerly awaiting the finished product.

NFH,

Any update on how your setup is going? I am still interested in getting some of this malt as my brew schedule is starting to ramp up.

Cheers

Hi Everyone
I've been spending a bit of time in the malthouse in the last few weeks with a couple of different welders. Unfortunately both these guys have been really busy and are only available on weekends at the moment. We are also having a minor annoyance with insurance and hot work permits but I can work around that.
The kiln is taking shape nicely now and is really starting to look like something finally.
I have what I consider to be a very large gas burner (35kW) but what I am told is actually quite tiny in the scheme of things.
I have a pressure blower that will be used to dry the green malt and recirculate the hot air during the final kilning stage.
I have ducting sitting all lonely in a box.
Everything is basically ready to go, just need the time to get in and get it all put together.
Designing and building something like this has been one of the biggest challenges I've come up against in a long time and I grossly underestimated the time it was going to take.
I am still marching on, just a wee bit slower than I had always imagined.

Any idea when the malt will be ready? I may be going travelling soon.
 
NFH,

Another month goes by and I have to ask again, how is going down there in Tassie. Any progress with the malthouse?

Cheers

Hey guys, haven't posted in here for a while.
I have had a less than desirable start to the year so far, personally and financially.
Not the least of my problems being a nightmare tenant in my rental property who just decided to stop paying rent but still live there.
That kinda dented my finances as well as occupying a lot of time outside of working hours so things kinda slowed as a result.
The lesson there, if you're going to rent privately do more homework than I did.
However, I'm getting back on track now and things are progressing again.
I still think that it will be a month or so before things are looking like being ready.

Once again I must apologise for the delay. I seriously can't wait to have this thing up and running!
I appreciate the patience that everyone has shown thus far.

Gents ... Going to have to bail on this one ...
Just made a purchase with the local brew club - cant seem to get to the brewery lately as I have pulled up my deck where I normally brew.
Bearer timbers were rotten so I have to redo the whole thing.

Will look back here when I am more financial

Totals adjusted accordingly

Cheers
