It seems there has been a bit of discussion stirred up by the QLD yeast swap coming up. This topic is along the lines of making starters & yeast farming but I think it needs it's own thread as there may be quite a lot of different ideas of how to do this. The question is designed to get a bit of...

I am driving to Perth for Xmas holidays and will be there for a few weeks so I am keen to meet up with fellow AHB'ers and have a few beers and talk brewing stuff. As I'm driving through Adelaide a meet-up with some Adelaide brewers would be on the cards too. Looking at passing through Adelaide...

I am always low on fridge space especially when it comes to CCing and keg storage so I am thinking of a cold room. There was one recently for sale nearby for $1500 and I was considering buying a second hand cold room, then cutting the panels to make it fit onto a trailer so that I have a mobile...

Unfortunately with St Pats U$300 min order I would need to combine an order with another couple of people. I am looking at getting the following from St Pats & for an in keg carbonator + to hook up to a CFWC and hopefully end up with something like this in the future..... That's about U$100...

I would spend well over $1000 which I intend to do in a few years by geting a cold room. Also looking a few hundred for a stainless steel conical fermenter and everything else to go with it (temp control). However by far my best HB investment is my temp controlled fermenting fridge which I...

I am planning on doing an AG using a recipe from the Whitelabs recipe page. Does anyone know what grain is available in Australia that would be a good substitute? Is flaked corn available in Australia? If not are there any good substitutes? Thanks in advance Hoops Amigo Mexican Lager 5...

After the Brisbane get-together there is a few guys looking at getting a coil of 10mm x 1.6mm thick Stainless Steel tube (for CFWC's) It is going to cost $5 per metre plus $50 to roll it therefore the more tube done in one hit the cheaper it will work out. Anyone else interested? Hoops

I had a couple of these adaptors made up so that you can use Soda Stream bottles with a normal regulator. I can get some more made up if people want some. The guy charges $30 Still interested Trev Wedge GMK & Batz? Hoops

Slow day at work so I put this chart together using the info from BYO.com website. It is in A3 size. Hoops

Thought it would be a good idea for a thread for brew related e-bay items. Here's a soda stream CO2 bottle if anyone's looking for one near Wollongong/Illawarra . CO2 bottle

Wouldn't take long to bring the wort to a rolling boil with this baby!

Not sure if it is possible to use this for brewing or whether it would have any toxic residue? It's got me thinking though. Thought I'd post it in case anyone down south thinks they can put it to good use. Hoops LPG Gas Tank

Well I'm a happy man, I now have my Xmas present - 25kg bag of Joe White Traditional Ale Malt and a grain cracker! (Due to someone's cruel twisted tradition I'm not supposed to use them til Xmas Day!!! :angry: ) Already reading some posts and scheming up some recipes. :D I was looking at a...

I have seen a few of the 10Lt Cornelius kegs kicking around but no-one will sell them, "rare as hens teeth" they say (which seems to be true). I am curious if anyone has looked at getting some from the US? I am sure the freight would be too expensive for an individual but with a group like this...

I am keen to do some brewing in the couple of weeks and want to do a full mash. I have done one full mash before and it turned out great. :) I was thinking of buying a 25kg/50kg bag of grain, however I don't know what grain to buy or what a good price is. (I mainly brew light to medium coloured...

Gday eveyone, I have been brewing for a few years and have moved to Toowoomba QLD and I am looking for a homebrew club. I joined the Brisbane Brewing Club a few years ago when I was living in Brizzy and WOW did I learn a lot. I have found one club in Toowoomba but wasn't real impressed. My aim...
