New(ish) brewer in Melbourne

[thebeerzilla]

Hi all,

I've been homebrewing for a couple of years now (after getting hooked on brewing at Barleycorn in Oakleigh) and I figured it was time to join the wider community.

I currently BIAB with a 30 litre pot, turning out 15 litre batches.

My temperature control is a blanket when the weather is cold and a swamp cooler when it's hot.

I have around 10 brews under my belt.
My last was a rum and oak aged chocolate stout, which I've just entered in my first competition, and I'm about to bottle a bourbon and oak aged double IPA.

Good luck in the comp, sounds delish!

Plenty of like minds about here so welcome to the fray

My mate in the UK bought me a gig at Barleycorn too, for my 30th.

It was bottled the weekend of the replayed Grand final...whenever that was? A Redback copy called Whitetail.

Looks like you're getting stuck into the big stuff, good work !

Brew strong, brew often brother !

Thanks for the welcome, guys!
