Sticky Wicket Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Ok, a bit about myself. Name: Richard Age: 43 Married with two kids. Originally from the Northern Beaches of Sydney and relocated to the Central Coast December 2010. I work in commercial property and have done for the last 8 years, prior to that I owned smash repair business in Brookvale, I know strange change of profession. I love beer, drinking it, making it and just staring at it. I am into Golf, Cricket, Rugby League (mighty Manly Sea Eagles), Fishing and Punk music. I have just started adding specialty grains to my kit beers, and are working towards putting together an AG system, that will be interesting. I have brewed on and off for 25 years, and joining this forum I have learnt all the reasons I was making some good and bad beers from time to time, all that is fixed now, no turning back. I believe beer-a-clock is whenever I feel like it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilboBaggins Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I am into Golf' date=' Cricket, Rugby League (mighty Manly Sea Eagles), Fishing and Punk music.[/quote'] Nice to meet you Richard. I'm a bit of a metal head, but I've been known to throw some Minor Threat or Subhumans into the mix. I'm really happy with my current AG setup, but I got into it with far less equipment and made some GREAT beer from the get go. I'm far from an expert but if you need help designing a 'next-to-nothing' setup I'd be happy to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticky Wicket Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Hi Phil, Ah, Minor Threat Out of Step won of the all time great records. I appreciate the offer, I recently got a pub keg and have designed as per Yobs Slaughter House Brewery, however after looking at Kelsey's brew day thread I am starting to lean towards urn and brew in a bag. Haven't made my mind up yet, pros and cons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilboBaggins Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 One of the BIG cons for gas is having to refill the cylinder at the exorbitant prices they ask. Another one is that you have to brew outside, okay on days like this, terrible in 40 degree heat. [crying] I really like the look of BIAB in an urn. The only reason I went with gas was because I already had a kettle, and couldn't afford the urn upfront TBH. [bandit][ninja] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
