The swap bottles, having been left inside where it's a bit warmer are carbed but could probably do with another month or so to mature...

also looking forward to the day.

[insane_rosenberg]

Anyone got a grimwood? I have one but we may need a second if we are going to step mash with Fents' system. The HERMS will obviously be fine in that regard.

I also have a OTS element that I can bring. Let me know.

best to bring it in case something goes bang on the day, better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it

It has been a while since I have brewed or been a part of any homebrew related activities. Time to get back amongst it I reckon. I would love to be a Non Swap Attendee if there are no objections.

 

[Fents]

Are we really doing the same beer across two systems? guess it would be good for comparisons.....

So who's got what?

 

[manticle]

I'm up for two different ones - just depends what people want in cubes and how many. Two the same is fine if that's what people want too.

There's a list in the brewday article of things people are happy to contribute. I've got 6 packs of biere de garde yeast, 25 kg dingemans malt available as well as hops, biscuit and munich.

Think vitalstatistix had some Dingemans pilsner too, yob had some weyermann and some munich from memory.

Im not fussed either, my mashy can hold 14kg max so just work around that.

 

[Fents]

so who's going to take this by the nuts and make lists and suggest stuff?

Cheers mate, i will have some tarps and the garage/breweries will be under cover. If your going to drop your beers earlier maybe you could drop that as well and we can have it setup. Better to be safe than wet! Thanks for the offer buddy!

 

[manticle]

The list is here: http://www.aussiehomebrewer.com/forum/inde...showarticle=199

I'll wack it in my signature too so it's easily accessible.

As for the beer - Popular vote and if people don't pipe up we'll assume biere de garde is the king of the day.

I'll tally up the total ingredients when I get home tonight and re-do the list so we can tick each one off.

How about a Belgian Pale ale and the Bier degarde?
A beer like that allows us to make as many cubes as possible being 5% ish
and would match with a few of the ingredients being thrown around...just a thought
