| Posted: 21 Jun 2021 07:44 PM PDT Ok I'll kick off with a couple. Did you hear about the masochist who loved to take cold showers so he didn't. .................................................................. Paddy and Seamus had missed the last bus and were walking home at midnight, when they passed the bus depot. A window was open so Paddy hopped in to steal a bus. After much banging and crashing Paddy came back out through the window. "We're out of luck, Seamus, there wasn't a number 153 in there" "Bloody... Continuing Jokes Thread |
| Posted: 21 Jun 2021 06:58 PM PDT Guys, I'm having another crack at a Bavarian Weissbier (such as Schofferhofer, Franziskaner etc) and to date I haven't been able to get it just how I like it, so I need your help! I like it a slightly leaning toward banana, cloudy, and a full mouthfeel. I do BIAB and usually no chill. I don't make water additions but my water is pretty good and balanced. I was thinking of trying Mangrove Jacks M20 yeast. What are people's thought on things such as:

| Posted: 21 Jun 2021 05:14 PM PDT Hey all, After some advice please.  Upgraded my SS brew bucket to a domed lid today to do pressurerised transfers. Put the lid on a new batch and pitched the yeast starter early arvo then checked it later - no airlock activity (complete equilibrium on an S shaped kind) but Tilt is showing a drop in gravity and the smell is obvious. (I know airlock activity is not the be all and end all) Anyway I noticed that when I took the lid off briefly to check the seal the airlock shows a build up... Pressure Relief Valve |
| Posted: 21 Jun 2021 12:50 AM PDT Hi guys, I've been mainly brewing Belgian beers so I have limited experience with anything else. I bought a fresh wort kit from my LHB labelled "Riwaka XPA" and suggests dry hopping with 50g of either Riwaka or Simcoe. I bought one of each thinking id do a 100g dry hop but am now wondering if the two will compliment each other or not? Also I plan on dry hopping during active fermentation do minimise o2 as I'm bottling. Will either of these produce grassy flavours if left in contact too... Simcoe with Riwaka DH? |
| Posted: 20 Jun 2021 11:08 PM PDT I've been trying to work something out this morning and thought I would see if anyone else has already solved this problem. I usually brew beer but lately I've enjoyed doing a mead or two. I like that they're relatively quick and easy to start and it's just a nice change from beer. The question I have is regarding good vessels for small batch primary and secondary fermentation. For my first batches I used 5 litre demijohns for both primary and secondary. I did about 4.2 litres for primary... Small batch mead vessels |
| Posted: 20 Jun 2021 11:00 PM PDT Hi everyone. Hugh here. New to Brewing. Step son bought me a Mangrove Jacks Ginger Bear kit a couple of years ago for fathers day, and it pretty much didn't get used after that first batch. But earlier this year, I decided to try cider from supermarket brand juice. 7 brews later, I've only had to toss a couple (so dry as to be undrinkable) and I've got my self an Apple and Pear cider from the last two batches that I'm happy to share around. Also have a few gallons of Mead on the go, but... Newbie from Melbourne/Geelong |
