hi i'm mike from hervey bay. I Have just started all grain brewing and have found i'm brewing more beer than i drink cause i enjoy it so much (due to a three month course on antibiotics) i am just loving the smells and aromas of dunkelwiezens to american ipa's and am looking forward to giving and receiving valuable knowledge we all aquire on our quest for the perfect brew. Thanks for all the recipe's and information i looked up going through my extract and partial stage of brewing though not being a member was very helpful in making my beers and look forward to months ahead.
2 brews so far a.g ironstein weizen (became bitterwheat symphony) after long long boil (ready to drink 12/8)
three legg-ed goat american ipa (just bottled) galaxy cascade 6.9%

Oh I have just put down a borage ale with 1kg fresh borage
1 kg raw sugar
12ltr water
200g honey
then i dumped it on top of us 05 pale ale slurry after i bottled that.
Has anyone made borage ale before any comments?

Gday Mike and welcome. My outlaws are in Toogoom mate so might bump into you some time lol.. Love to hear the follow up on the borage as it grows super wild here as i'm guessing it does down there. Cheers
