Article in the Sydney Mornng Herald today, featuring Dave Gumm's ugly mug.

Nice one Insight. My Old man only uses his show and every time we talk brewing, he says in a Yorkshire accent: "Dave Gumm, by Gum!"

Good Day
A good article for home brewing.
However I did like this bit;

"Known as "full mash" or "all-grain brewing", this requires more expensive equipment and greater skill. In this method, the home brewer produces the raw mash by cracking the grain in hot water in a mash tun. The liquid is then drained off and transferred to a fermenter for primary fermentation, when the yeast goes through its growth stage."

The "No Boil Method"?

Will save 60 to 90 minutes and no need for boilers, gas/electricity or chilling.

Well spotted there, Barry

Can't wait to read the pros and cons of the "no boil" method on this site, ad nauseum... <_<

:lol:

I noticed this too Barry. I guess they have to dumb things down a bit though. When I am banging on to some poor unsuspecting individual about the process of AG brewing I can see their eyes glaze over well before I get to the boil stage! And if not, I know their just humouring me :lol:

I don't know whether achieving "pub-like results" is a compliment - or an insult!

 

[SpillsMostOfIt]

The No Boil method is preferred by home brewers looking for a less-refined flavour profile which some describe as 'crap'. Mistakenly compared to both No Chill methods and the use of wild yeast, this technique died out as quickly as it began.

A source close to AHB decried the technique pointing to the recent popularity of the Slow Booze movement.

ESB (Eastern Suburbs Brewmaker) in Peakhurst sells a kit containing fresh wort for $85

It's good to see that craft brewing and good beers are becoming more prevelant

When I am banging on to some poor unsuspecting individual ...

I thought there was a law against that

Probably includes fermenter, capper, sanitizer, et al.... starter kit with fresh wort rather than a can of goop.

all depends on the pub and the beers they stock. Regularly churning out beers like the wig and pen would keep me pretty happy .
