Just tried our first Apple cider. Wow! I'm really impressed. Gunna do more of that in the future. Not too sweet, Slight dry after taste, very bubble'y , just over 6% alc/vol . Very very nice, glad we did another one before even tasting the first. The second one is ready to try on 21/10/07...

Thanks to everyone for your kind replies and the beer you tipped up in thought for my dad. I'm from south Australia, Australia. A long way away, but somehow, your replies have made me feel welcome, and not so alone in this big wide world. Haven't got a brew going at the moment, but I've sure...

Hi people. been away for some time because of work.,,,, and a short holiday interstate to visit me dear ole mum after the death of my dad. Still I have to work for a living and that has taken up most of my time. Unfortunately I'm born to brew, & fish, but forced to work. I don't seem to find...

Tried the hairspray on my lables tonight. Schwarzkopf , taft. Long lasting holds in all conditions. STYLING LACQUER. I only gave them one coat, but a good soaking, both sides. Does anyone think this will work? Half a can on only six lables. It didn't leave them with any gloss, and they don't...

Checked out the better bottle site that Beerrific posted. Didn't mean to sound frightening, after all I use plastic PET bottles. You may find it interesting though to check out what they say. Go to tech support, Purity, then click on urban myths. They go to some extreme to assure that PET...

I assume we are talking plastic pet bottle's. In any event let me put you in the know about plastic bottles. Ever wonder why coke a cola or other soft drinks have a use by date. One of the reasons is that the inside of the bottle is coated with a protected film. Age , damage , and or dents...

Home cooked are the best,,,,, if you can still stand. Don't fall asleep while cooking though. done that once, gut full of smoke, belly full of piss... NOT GOOD, trust me. Can't drink after I've eaten. Good idea is to have a designated cooker for the night. Or as I often do,,,,, drink till...

Some of the best things need time to aquire taste. ah, drink it anyway. ..... If it was any good you probaly won't remember how to reproduce it......If it was no good , you'll probaly want to forget how to reproduce it anyway.

Was drunk one night, found myself rolling around in the scrub. Didn't like the smell, but the bush bunny's couldn't keep their hands off me. Not fond of some of my creations, but by golly, you can please all of the people some of the time.

Thanks for your advice and experience. Feel I've learnt something. Cheers mate's.;; Welcome your knowlage.

My fermenter is just a single primary fermentation barrel with a tap at the bottom. The instructions, and all the books I have read tell me about taking FG readings. Now I believe that the air lock is there to stop contamenated air and bacteria from entering the wort. However when nearing...

Cheers, that was easy.

I've been on the forum a few times now and made a couple of posts. Just realized I've not posted an introduction. Done some brews a couple of years ago and only recently got back into it. Was looking for some advice, and an avenue of help as I go along , thats what lead me to this forum. Already...
