On order..yipeee

 

[Yob]

Um ... Dry yeasts go in the fridge too. They my be a bit on the dead side if you've frozen them.

Thanks Yeast Nerd. :lol:
I stand corrected
(though in my defense I s'pose I was quoting the technical data correctly - only they haven't corrected their tech data) B)

 

[mofox1]

Well ya learn something new every day... Dontcha.

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

Hows it work for Safale who have a protective gas atmosphere inside with the yeast as opposed to Danstar who vacuum seal?

 

[takai]

Yeah, i have always frozen my dry yeasts. Never had an issue with it at all.

 

[Yob]

think about it..

dehydrated....

Its the water in the cell wall that crystallizes when freezing.. no water, no rupture..

Its what Glycerine does, displaces the water in the cell wall..

 

[technobabble66]

Yeah, I've always thought they should've been ok to freeze for the reason you said; but just went by what the producers said was ok. Just assumed there must still be water in the cells or something.
Obviously adds fuel to the idea that what they advise isn't always the full truth.

Rehydrate, anybody?!

 

[2much2spend]

A lot of what i grabbed was dry yeasts, the liquids are in the fridge.

got ya!

Also, with our latest WL shipment we got some of the Whiskey yeasts that are proving popular in the USA in high gravity beers.

Rehydrate, anybody?!

Ah, that is an entirely different kettle of fish.

Rehydrating in tap water (not distilled or wort) has to do with the yeast not being able to control what crosses their cell membranes when dried and the issue of the osmotic forces associated with hypertonic (wort) and hypotonic (distilled water) on the dry yeast cells.

[technobabble66]

True.
It was more just a light-hearted reference to the debate around rehydrating yeast, where much of the pro-rehydrating argument seems to rest on the premise that the companies recommending to rehydrate are experts in the field and know what they're talking about, and pass their best advice onto us. Well, that plus the science you mention above. :lol:

Do you guys stock individual tail piece barbs for faucet shanks? Can't seem to spot them on the website.

Just placed an online order and would like to tack it on if you do.

 

[Cocko]

To 'push In' on order, should be tomorrow or Thursday.

To barb, have new full shanks including to barb, will be listed tomorrow morning.

Sorry, still catching up from holiday... As far as re- stocks go.

New products every day ATM!

Cheers

So you don't sell tailpieces individually?

 

[Cocko]

So you don't sell tailpieces individually?

No individually at the moment, sorry.

 

[meathead]

Are you getting grainfather upgrade kits?

 

[Cocko]

Are you getting grainfather upgrade kits?

Will be on our next order with that supplier - Probably about 2 weeks away....

Cheers

 

[welly2]

Do you need one? I've got one spare you can have for the price of a beer.

 

[MastersBrewery]

Ordered some shanks, fingers crossed they fit.

G'day guys, what's the normal shipping time for an interstate order (i'm in WA)? Ordered some yeast on Tuesday and looks like it hasn't come yet, bit worried about it sitting with Aus Post over the weekend.

I don't want to sound like a pain, as I had the same issue last time I ordered yeast - in future should I just make sure I place the order early Monday morning?

Hey Mate,

We generally ship orders received by 2pm same day, but hold off posting yeast/hops on a Friday - Simply because you will not receive for weekend brewing and it will sit in an AusPost shed for the weekend - not desirable.

So to answer your question, our shipping time is pretty much same day - AusPost, obviously beyond control can vary a bit.

Can you please shoot me a PM or email Andrew@ fullpint dot com dot au and I will follow up your order for you.

Have you been receiving tracking emails? - please mention in PM if so.

Cheers
Andrew

Apparently you can't receive any new messages - just sent through an email.

 

[takai]

Another order through, perhaps i just need to start having a courier on the books to pick up orders

 

[OneEye]

Has anyone given the fresh wort kits a go? Thoughts? I need 4 kegs to fill and can only brew 2 batches

[Nullnvoid]

Could be me but looks like the fullpint app for iPhone isn't working. Can't bring up anything in the store. Comes up with a big long error message. Can't screen shot it because of my f$$ked phone.

Just in case it is a problem with everyone and you don't know.

 

[Cocko]

Thanks mate, we are having app problems, will have it sorted ASAP.

Cheers, again, free hops for you!
