That's a decent pre-boil gravity, Geoff!
 
Pretty sure I've got the right volume too Ben.

Must do something about that after this brew, pretty sure I have a piece of stainless flat bar around here somewhere. Some cold water, a etching bit on my dremel and I'll get that fixed.

Oh yeah, and I just found my new hop screen sitting on my desk - DOH!
 
67 liters in the kettle, almost boiling and 45 min before it sees any hops :)
 
And in with the flavour hops.

Time to rinse out the No Chill drum.

Oh, and have another ESB ;)
 
Flameout hops added, a quick stir (jeez I hope I didn't oxygenate it) with the f'n hot spoon that's been sterilising in the boil the last ten minutes and the lids on.

20 minutes of waiting drinking time and it'll be into the no chill drum.
 
Hallertau in 10 min ago....... 30 min to go then will be chilling it and pitching this arvo.

What a great way to spend a wet cool boxing day. Its about 20 deg and thats great cause its made the brew day very comfortable..... didnt even break a sweat.

cheers
 
Lucky ba$tard, it's been pissing down most of the morning on and off, it's humid as all hell >70%, it's nudging 29 degrees and I sweated up a storm just watching the kettle.

Still beats going shopping with the missus and in-laws ;)
 
And cubed.

Bugger me if I didn't over do the boil again. I got about 18L of 1.058 into the cube.

That'll make for an interesting % alcohol in the final product of about 6% or so.
 
Was going to brew today but couldnt drag myself out of bed in time. Finished a book instead
Will get more organised tommorow :p

Wish I had some damned Vienna.. :(
 
Just put this IPA down using a new hop to Oz courtesy of MHB, maaate, up here in QLD the humidity is running about 99% and its about 33C, around the brewery I reckon it was more like 38.

I was going to do a basic hefe-weizen (50% BB Wheat, 50% BB Pils), but just moving fermenters in and out of the fermenting fridge left me covered in sweat. Bloody 99% humidity, I'll do it tomorrow and watch cricket instead today whilst rehydrating B) .

Brewing a Brown ale...... trying to get close to a Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale. Im not using any sugar though.
