Vic 2013 Xmas in July Swap - Recipe thread

[Whiteferret]

aah, I see... will you make up a measurement stick / sight stick so we know what volumes we are at?

Doing that right now at work.
Will do the chopping of the lid this arvo with it full of water to see if my stand is up to holding 200+ kg.

ps: tea tree oil is flammable.

So I guess that I am not bringing my 1V BM clone? OK, no problem...

I am trying to convince the Mrs to drive me. I think I can persuade her.

I might have a keg of something to bring, it depends on whether this amber (failed Red ale) I brewed is actually any good or not... If it's good it will be a conundrum (to keep or not to keep) if it's not then I would be too shy to let others taste it...

I think running two electric systems will be an issue mate, hence why we have gone large and gas fired.. personally I'd like to see it given a run,, just this weekend may not be the right time.. Maybe consider the (I hope they are still running it) Melbourne Brewers System Wars, I didnt get to go last time it was run but sounded like a hoot.

My Mosaic Hop Monster is in CC as of last night, will keg it Wednesday and Carb it up... it's gunna be green but should be ok... I hope, am running about a week behind schedule

If it's still well green, I have some fall back bottles.

Anybody interested in Maxi-taxi sharing back towards town later in the eve? Will be going at least as far as Brunswick, via fairfield depending on interest. Around 6 people I guess to make it worth it.

1. Manticle
2. Vitalstatistix

There's a chance also that vitalstatistix can take a few swaps and equipment across on Thursday or Friday in exchange for a small amount of petrol money. He's in Brunswick East, relatively small car

Well Said sir. Just had a glass of my 'failed' red, it needs to clear up a lot but is pretty nice. I had to confirm with a second pint and it's definitely drinkable.

Ah ****, there goes my day. Now I am snacking and thinking about the next beer....

What about Naked Oats? 4kg sound right or maybe a bit more?

Last post I could see was this, seems to be a few gaps in the bill still... if Ive missed one since this, apologies.. time is getting short peeps...

 

[manticle]

I put my hand up for the remaining spec malts. Are we doing oatmeal or not? Stout is great without but happy to get that too if the vote goes that way.

 

[meathead]

I'm bringing the 15kg maris

How much med crystal required? i can bring up to 500g of ECB 115-145. I've put down 400g but can easily do the extra 100g.

Edit: Just read manticle's post about him supplying all spec malts. So now i'm not sure if i need to bring the med crystal, but i'll probably bring it anyway, i guess.

Edit 2: re manticle below, fixed - updated to 350g (1/3rd)

 

[manticle]

If you've already got it, add your name to the list and I'll grab the rest. 1/3 light, 1/3 dark, 1/3 medium.

Mants,
I think it was decided to do the oatmeal. I put down 4kg in the list is this an alright amount? You said in an earlier post somewhere about toasting it. Is that whole
or crushed and at what temp? On a tray in the oven I presume.

 

[manticle]

Crushed in the oven works best. 500g per 25 L. Let me know final amount and put my name on the list for it. Still posting on phone so quoting in colour is a massive arse pain.

 

[Edak]

at least you can post on your phone. Dropped my phone last night from the van and got a chip in the glass, now I can't use the lower half of the screen.
