Hey all, Haven't brewed all year and am looking to fill the kegs again for christmas. I've got a 60L fermenter and 3 x 30L fermenters. Earlier in the year they were left with fermenter crud, i have since pressure washed them, but they are a little stained. Is there a recommended procedure to...

Hey all, Been brewing for a while now and am finally pretty happy with my all grain setup. With the exception my kegging setup & undercarbed beer. I cant see what im doing wrong but my beer always seems flat. I've replaced my regulator and refilled my Co2 bottle. Running on 15 psi. Using...

Hey all, Have got myself a 100L craftbrewer pot braumeister. Great for double/single batches. Due to its size, its a fixed setup, works great and id rather use it for big batches. I want to make a 1v electric setup for single batches only. Something with good repeatable efficiency. Something...

Hey all, Recently done a double batch of golden ale and a single batch of little fellas pale ale. They were all fermented in a fridge setup to ferment running a Brewpi controller. Heat pad for heating. I got keen to brew and pumped out the batches in a big session and realised i forgot to get...

Hey all, As i brew more and get a bit more knowledge and practice under my belt, im slowly working on refining my processes to make my beer a little better each time. The next thing I want to tackle is my fermenting process. I've read a lot about raising temps for a few days and cold crashing...

Hey all, Im having trouble with my keezer setup and having mould/mildew on the tops of the kegs. Obviously beeing a keezer, the bottom of the kegs will be colder than the tops. I got mould developing on the rubber of the tops of the kegs. Any way i can stop this? Surely if i have the problem...

Hey all, Trying to work out a second brew rig, purely for single batches. I Currently have a keggle which i can use, but it has a big socket welded in it and in that is the dreaded keg king element. It is currently setup with a little brown pump to recirc the wort and has a stainless mesh...

Hey all, Have done a few brews of late, Golden Ale, Mornington pale ale clone, Little creatures bright ale, all from the recipe DB. They all have different hops, different grain bills, All used US05, and they all seem very similar. The pale ale I wasnt overly happy with as it didnt have that...

Hey all, Kegged a few batches over the last few months and the carbonation just doesnt seem right. The first few brews i had kegged and left at serving pressure for a few weeks to carb up. The latest few i have done the CO2 through the beer disconnect and a 70 sec rock at 300kpa then left it...

Hey all, Doing double batches in a brau clone, the malt pipe is fairly heavy to lift. Has anyone come across a cheap little electric winch type setup for lifting the grain bag/malt pipe from the roof? All i can seem to find is big stuff, like what would go on a car. Any advice would be great

Hey all, I have been force carbing by leaving my kegs at serving temp for a week or so which has been fine for me. I have been away and have a golden ale thats finished fermenting and it would be nice to drink for new years. Can someone let me know of the safest method to get it carbed up for...

Hey all, Got 2 x perlick 650ss taps today from cheeky peak brewery, didnt have enough beer disconnects to hook both up, but i hooked one up and it wont stop leaking. Not sure about the other one yet. It drips probably every second. Is there something i should look at tightening? Anyone had...

Hey all, Just put a new 4 tap tee font on my keezer. Made up a project box with 90mm fan in it to blow cool air from the bottom of the freezer into the font. I know thats a fairly normal way to do it, but it doesnt seem very effective in my setup. The beer in the lines seems to warm up...

Hey All, Have got my BM clone up and running doing single batches without a problem. I use a Bigw 19l malt pipe. I want to modify the setup to do double batches. I have another Bigw 19l pot and was thinking of cutting the bottom off it, drilling some holes in the sides of both pots to slip...
