Have just been informed by SWMBO that we are at a wedding in Singleton on the weekend of the 10th :angry:

May be able to make it there on the 11th depending on time, on the way back to the gong

If not I'll have to rely on beer karma to get the bottles there

Cheers
 
I must admit I've done nothing yet. I have a brewday planned in Feb, but at the moment my garage is just too hot and stuff.
Anyway I WILL have a AG Dry, or Foreign Extra Stout brewed in time for the swap, even if it's a bit young.
Sorry guys.
 
Guys,

Due to stuff going on at home and work I might need to pull out of this one, are either of the 2 reserves listed able to step in, if so I'll happily step aside. If not I'll somehow manage to get them done.

thanks

Stu
 
Spent this arvo weighing up the hops for my IPA...

Half a kilo will do
 
Dang! :eek:

I hadn't done the numbers for my IPA. Looks like I'll be needing to order some hops.
 
Half a Kilo? Lordy! :icon_drool2:

I made the Belgian Tripel yesterday, will get started on the yeast starter for it later tonight. The wheatwine is still in secondary, has a kick like a mule at the moment. I'm thinking it might take some time to mellow.

cheers

Just happened to have EXACTLY half a kilo of various (12!) NZ hop varieties open in the freezer. Any excuse to empty the freezer will do!
 
I put down my IPA on Monday. Ive only used 200gms of hops so far. Looks like I might have under done it B) . Gotta start looking at a replacement for my Old Ale.

Belgian Dark Strong is leaping out of the fermenter at the moment. Wyeast 1388 in a 3L starter.

I have a Fruit Salad Pale Ale* in the other fermenter right now. Will be top cropping the Pacman yeast when I get home so that I can brew my IPA with that next week.



* Nelson Sauvin and Citra hopped - Simpsons Pale 95%, CaraRed 5% - OG 1.052 - Pacman
 
Grain is cracked, hops are measured. Just have to prepare my yeast in time.
Brew day is scheduled for Friday 5th Feb.
 
Depending on the date I could put up the camper trailer as o'night accomodation for those coming up from down south (or even up the road!!!), make a decent show of it, what ya reckon.


Cheers,


bags not being in the camper trailer with anyone from down south!

We all know that no date will suit all. Where's the wedding Gino? A sunday swap? Maybe even a Saturday night somewhere in Sydney then a Sunday swap?Think outside the square brewers!


ps - am pulling my finger out as we speak - also haven't anything in the fermenter yet!
 
It looks like I will bottle some IIPA I have here anyway and brewing a Belgian blonde, thinking of the Schelde yeast, this weekend.
 
Hey Ian

It's in Singleton we usually head up on the friday arvo and stay with my wife's parents

May be able to drop the beers off on the way up an collect on the way back through

Will work it out closer to the date

Cheers
 
OK then, now it looks like we'll be in Mildura from Easter through to the 10th.

It's a bit earlier but does the 20th March suit better???? You've been riding this show ctk, would be great if you were able to be there.

I can't promise anything with these dates. But I'll get my case to the location somehow.
 
Just finished the brewday. My foreign Extra Stout is in the fermenter and trying to chill.

Friday night brewing rocks :icon_chickcheers: (unless you dont have kids, then you should be out doing stuff). Looking forward to trying your stout, Pete. Just finished my Old Ale II, its in the ice bucket now.

Cheers
Andrew.
