Same for me. Google. Every time I googled a question about HB I ended up here. So I joined. Glad I did too 'cause I haven't even been here a week and the advice I've received so far has been a huge help.

I think that might be what I'll do for my second brew. Fun times ahead!!!

Ah that answers my next question perfectly. I was going to ask if there will be a time when I have left it in the fermenter too long. So the decision is made. It'll stay in there for at least another week. I knew you guys would help. Thanks a million.

Thanks guys.

Hey Guys. I have a lager brewing from a kit that went into the fermenter on the 20th of January. My og was 1038. The weather was definitely too warm for a lager but we have all made rookie mistakes and I know next time I'll have better means of keeping it cool. But within two days my gravity...

Coopers pale ale is a bloody good beer.

You know I don't think I've ever had a Foster's. Is that unAustralian? Infact I'm not sure even if they sell it here haha. Is it a nice beer? We have some bloody good local beers here anyway. I'm brewing from kits at the moment but I hope to graduate to brewing from scratch within the coming...

Not sure what I'll brew next. Going to keep an open mind and go with what grabs me when I see what's available. Having said that I am thinking about a pale ale at present but nothing set in concrete. As I mentioned in a previous post I may even go a pilsner. A second fermenter is now on the...

Hey mate, thanks for the post. I like the idea of have a couple of fermenters on the go at once. Might brew a pilsner. I read somewhere that it's a good brew for warmer months. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Our average daily temp at the moment is around 20-25c, 68-77f.

Hey buddy, thanks for the reply. Great idea with the container and pop bottles too. I've managed to keep it at a good temp so far and we've had a change come through today so it's cooled down nicely. Will keep your idea in mind for the future though. Thanks again!

Hello All, I have been researching a lot prior to getting my first brew going, I think maybe the ocd is kicking in, and with every question I had it seemed to lead me here. So I thought I'd better join! My first brew went into the fermenter on the 20th of Jan and is doing fine. I know it's a...
