The bro in law has this issue every time!

Haven't encountered that, although, to be fair, I fart loads anyway.

Now you have something to blame it on and science to back it up, if there are complaints.!!!

Oh, there are complaints!

Had a boxing day Brew

Dark Ale can
200g chocolate grains
170g caramunich type 2
Cascade hop tea
Brew enhancer 1kg
Saflager s23 yeast

Smelt amazing during fermentation.
Looks like it is ready to be bottled.
Took a reading today so if same again tomorrow I will bottle over weekend.

Today whacked down a white wine kit.

And a tooheys dark Ale
300g chocolate grains
1kg Malt.
23l

This kit cost me $21.
To purchase tooheys dark Ale at Dan Murphy's is $46.99. 23l is 2.875 cartons.

Will be putting down a brigalow Munich Lager, 230g caramunich type 2 grains and 1kg of light DME tomorrow arvo

Bottling my Interstellar Lager tomorrow ( Stella Artois ).

Nice day for a nice beer, looking forward to it.

Haven't got around to bottling my boxing day Brew, just giving the yeast some extra time to clean up.

My wine surprisingly still has a Krausen......so hopefully it calms down so I can add in the stabilisers etc.

Stella....! Steeelllaaaa!!

Yum, delicious, yum. ( As was the French chick bottling her pilsner at the same time I was bottling my lager ).

Bright, clear, with a little bit of a bitter tone, little bit of a crisp dry finish and a nice fresh after taste that gives you a little honey, sweet end. Not overly hoppy, but a classic lager style. Light and easy to drink. I can see these being quite an easy summer smasher.

Going to U Brew Here on Saturday at Lonsdale... Anyone else been there? or to places similar?

Are you describing the chick or the beer?

I've been doing mine as above ( Cisco Kid = Sierra Nevada Pale and Interstellar = Stella Artois ) at U Brew It at Kilburn.

It's cracking good fun and even better beer!

What are you looking at doing? ( PS - Read back through this thread for some of my tales )

The beer....

I recall seeing in last years Entertainment Book for vouchers for one of these places, and thought well it would be a shame to let it go to waste.......so I just check this years book and they don't appear in there!!!

Just been to U Brew It at Para Hills to buy my brother a voucher. Might have to join him and do my own at the same time.

What's the cost of doing a batch at U Brew It?

$180 for 50lt which = 6 cartons. Plus $50 for your first batch of bottles, which can obviously be reused. If you keep your own bottles ( pop tops only ) you can save the $50. But for $50, 150 brand new bottles, why would you?

So first lot is $230 for 6 cartons of 330ml stubbies, after that it's $180 for most of the range. The boutique beers and ciders are $220 per 6 cartons, I think.

I'm going tomorrow to lay down a Golden Ale.

I'll be doing mine into 19L kegs which I supply and they clean

Tomorrow is bottling day for my dark ales.

Looking forward to them this and next winter

Pot. Kettle. Black.

That's why I can say it. I'm not ashamed of my love and commitment to water with some added extras

Tonight will be getting into some blondes that were bottled in September.
However if it cools down, I might continue with the Coopers Euro Lager
