Beers Gone Wild 148 Posted January 8, 2019 Never thought to use a pencil, bit easier than shaslick stick. After the first worked so good I did every glass in the house Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elLachlano 354 Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) My hack isn't too extreme... Continuing my ghetto themed kits and bits brewery, I haven't gotten around to purchasing a grain mill. I think I need to get one before leaping for an urn and BIAB AG. So still using the zip-lock bag method, I just upgraded my bags to PVC A4 document wallets from Officeworks. I bought 5 of them for around $5 and the first one lasted 20 batches or so. Much stronger than the glad zip-locks. This one is only about 5 brews in. The poor old roller is copping some dents though.

Titan 1,734 Posted January 10, 2019 Im a gadget freak. Ordered one collect tomorrow. Will trial this with the plaato airlock and see how they compare. Still waiting on the replacement plaato, hoping it shows tomorrow. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norris! 2,259 Posted March 7, 2019 My LHBS just posted this great video for cleaning your kettle. It depends if you have a pump or not but for under $10 it is a good hack. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
