Having said that Muzzy, there is nothing wrong with the NE suburbs, my first landing in Adelaide about 1968 was Magill followed by Hectorville just of St Barny's but then I saw the light & moved to the Bay area, been there ever since. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Coast Pale Ale, he sent it to me to post on the forum so why not I say. @MUZZY@Classic Brewing Co, not sure of any other South Aussies on here, I’m sure there are, apologies. Very nice drop. I have it on tap at my local. Very tasty. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSands Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 14 hours ago, Marty_G said: @BlackSands that is not far off what some pay here. Cost starts at about $10/100g and then goes up depending on the store. Citra is expensive over here. As a comparison we sell Galaxy for $10/100g or $75/kg and Citra $13.20/100g and $95/kg. Interesting. I pay between $6 - $10 for most hops, both NZ and imported - with just a handful of varieties like Riwaka, Citra, Moasic etc that are somewhat more expensive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you chill straight after flameout or just let it cool down naturally? Generally I let it sit for 20 mins then into an ice bath before I strain it into the FV. Just on another matter I have an ESB fermenting at the moment and I’m going to try your gelatin fining method on this one for the first time. cheers Tone 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky Micky Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 16 hours ago, BlackSands said: Galaxy Pale Ale. Galaxy hops have always been hard to get hold of here so I was quite excited when I finally, for the first time after all these years actually manged to get my hands on some. It's THE most expensive hop I've ever purchased but for me galaxy is the best hop in the history of the hop universe that I've ever experienced! Just 50g added late to flavour up this beer and I gotta it's just great. Absolutely love it! Another great looking beer BS and another ripping pic too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidM Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Exchanged a beer with @Classic Brewing Co few weeks ago, tasted it late last week just as visitors arrived. I can't describe beer as some of you do but this was the best brew I've tasted. A wheat beer, full of flavour and such a pleasure to drink. Shows how good a K&K can be. Can't wait to see how good a @Classic Brewing Co All Grain will be. Thanks Phil (I have a lot to learn about brewing) 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just on another matter I have an ESB fermenting at the moment and I’m going to try your gelatin fining method on this one for the first time. cheers Tone Because I brew a concentrated wort (around 10 litres) my 'chill' only involves about 15 min in a tub of cold water. That, AND because I use kveik voss yeast I only need to get the final temp down into the 30º - 40ºC range after I've added the 10 litres of top-up water. In Winter the tap water is much colder so during those months I can pretty much get away with no 'chill' at all - 10 litres of winter-time cold water is enough to bring the temp down into to a kevik-friendly range. Speaking of finings, I forgot to add whirlfloc to this brew! I've had a suspicion for a while now, from past occasions where I forgot the kettle finings that it's not really needed. I think this pretty much confims it for me. It seems a cold-crash plus gelatin (or other) is all that is needed for a nice clear beer! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
