Theres about half a tonne of grain in the shed right now, could we wait at least until I deliver Droids grain. The shed looks like a home brew shop, and we don't have one here.

Your mill motor had a lot of energy! It was also quite loud, you might need to oil him

I’ll put the recipe up MJ and I did a few comps years ago but quickly realised that I needed to brew more often and I didn’t want to brew that often (I would have drunk too much, if there is such a thing!)

Was a really great brew razz, and has given me some pointers for where I need to move some brews. @techonbabble66 Your westy sits in flavour same as mine, though with less head, I did had one blow it's top after considerable travel; seems the Belgian yeast needs some work to get down to fg.

Just grabbed some of these for $12 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/80-L-Fo...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649, need cleaning as they still have olives bits and oil in them. But great storage for the price, nice old bloke to deal with too. Should have ordered more grain, half way through my Pilsner already

I must say, I have looked at the prices of the recent Sydney and Brisbane bulk buys, and far out, Clever Brewing really looked after us! The prices those guys are getting look good, but wow. Is grain just cheaper in Victoria?

That's all.

 

[DU99]

think it's called buying power

 

[Jordie_tackles]

And as a result I bought hops and yeast from clever to return favour!

 

[peekaboo_jones]

Me too, and my first corny keg and other bits to boot.
Looking forward to using that clever bloke again, great service and products

 

[EastVicLad]

Im in for the next one...
