Brewing Classic Styles and Water

Just thinking that maybe these changes/improvements should have been implemented prior to such an increase so that people could then judge on the value of the increase. You would possibly not have the questions/concerns if members see the reason and value behind the increase. \\\\\bit like...

Mate, when they charge you 7.50 a kilo locally for it it's worthwhile buying a full bag for 2.90 a kilo and share it around. I have another brewer locall who I am sure will take some off me if needed.

Similar thing happened to my son. I visited him last week and he said that he had a bottled filled for his sodastream and could not drink it, He said it had the taste of bitters or acetone. He had to ditch it.

Like you mate I live too far away from a decent HBS so took the opportunity while in Brisbane and got a bag of Gladfields US Malt a bag of Gladfields Medium Crystal a bag of Gladfields Wheat a bag of MO 5 kg Vienna 5 kg Munich 5 kg Carared 5 kg Carapils 500g Citra 500 g Columbus 500 g...

Trialben, I picked up a saison from Steve at Hoppydays while I was in Brisbane. I will try a saison in the next couple of brews. I also picked up my bulk buys, a bag each of Gladfields US Ale, Wheat and Crystal and a bag of MO. Some specialties, and a few other odds and ends including hops. I...

Yes the link located you but another search didn't

Welcome mate. Just down the road at Macksville.

Thanks Ozark. Trialben must have his to private.

I am just trying the hop combination from Ozaeks Sierra. I have run out of grain and specialties so just using Maris and Carapils. I have stock waiting for me in Brisbane next week and will have a big shopping spree to last for another 6 months.

Must be just your name mate it comes up with no find. Searched Ozarks and it worked.

Ever since I joined this group my Search Function for Members has not worked or I am doing something wrong. I have gone to members pages by other means but it is getting a pain in the ..... Any assistance Admin? Thanks

I agree Trialben I just bought three bags of Gladfield through the AHb Brisbane bulk buy.. I just tapped a Fat Yak I brewed with Gladfield and like it the best of those I have brewed.

My 6.5 kg cost $50

Yesterday I did my first double batch in my newly constructed Electric BIAB setup. I put through a Fat Yak. By the calculators on Brewers Friend I had a 86.67% conversion factor. Just being new to this is that good, bad or indifferent. I recirculated,at 68.9C then ramped to 75.6c then sparged...

I'd like to get Sundays paper on Saturday (just once) and then all my brewing problems would be sorted.

Thanks guys. It a rough diamond at the moment but will get polished when the couplings I have ordered arrive.

I was fortunate to pick up a couple of double kettles, a plate chiller and a few odds and ends when I was in Brisbane the other day. I have installed a herms in one tower and I am waiting for some fittings to get the whole system up and running but I did a double brew tonight in one vessel. The...

By the way I am dirnking your S & W at the moment and its a very pleasant drop. Iy was my first tru all grain. I will put up a couple of photos of my new brew station shortly.

That's alright Trialben. They are starting another bulk buy on AHB and I will be getting a few bags.
