James Millar replied to James Millar's discussion 60L stainless steel conical fermenter"Yeah it sucks to have to sell it!
44cm diameter x 100cm high to the top of the triclamp at the top for the blowoff tube. I fitted it in a slightly modified fridge from trademe (now gone) easily enough.
Haven't done any pressure ferments but…"
David R replied to Richard Deeble's discussion Unfashionable NZ Hops"Both beers I mentioned earlier are on tap now, the ESB is fantastic but I wish I'd added a good whirlpool of the Fuggles (I was trying to show some restraint, not usually my forte when it comes to hops!) even though it would have made it more…"
Tilt replied to James Millar's discussion 60L stainless steel conical fermenter"Imagine you'll be sorry to let this go.
What are the dimensions? - total height including blow off tube and width at widest point?
Does it manage pressure ferments and transfers?
Also what does the inside look like?
Thanks"
Chig replied to Scott H's discussion Electric Brewery's"No worries Nathan.
I use weldless bulkheads; I've found them easy to work with since I have zero welding experience. In my experience the smaller ports are easy to fit, but the larger ones for the element are more tricky and require a bit more…"
Nathan Hough replied to Scott H's discussion Electric Brewery's"Hey Chig,
Thanks for the reply, and tips.
Did you weld ports onto the pots or just use weldless bulkheads?
Great to hear about the still dragon housing, seems like a worthwhile investment.
Where did you get your RTD probes from?
Cheers"

NZ limits to annual home brew production?
Posted by BeerBill on August 20, 2017 at 11:30pm 5 Comments 0 Likes
I am wondering if there is a legal annual limit for home brewed beer production in NZ. USA is often about 200 gallons per year. That's about 30 to 40 brews at 19 to 23 litres. Are we limitless or limited in NZ and where is the law to be found?

I'm fairly new to the hobby with about 7 extract kit brews and through the second lot of them I spent my spare time collecting parts for and building an eHERMS system out of 50l pots.
I finally finished and did preliminary tests on the eHERMS before xmas and this brew was just after xmas.
Today I cracked open one of the PET bottles of my first batch of all grain beer since it was firm although it had only been in the bottles about 2 days after putting it in the fridge…

Us cascade vs nz cascade
Posted by Kroydon on October 16, 2016 at 5:22pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
So I have gotten a hold of a "us cascade" hop plant which is doing great. Question is what separates the nz and us strains. Is it the plant it's self or is it the country/climate it grows in. Google hasn't helped me on this one. I'm not phased just wondering what to expect
