Dale said… - Hey Evan, yeah come along to the next swap we are all at different levels and just love the drinking of beers. I think it's the first weekend in September. I'm just changing my setup to single tier at the mo so when that's done you should come round to mine (Monaco) to watch a brew and have a beer. Ta Dale

Daniel Miller said… - Hey Evan
Yeah it was great to meet you as well, it was a real awesome day and I'm looking forward to the next meet! I have put down an IPA and a Pils so I should have a bit to swap!
Well all my brews so far have just been of my own invention, but I do have a few web sites I check out so I'll post them up for you. In the mean time I would just have a real good around Realbeer as I'm sure there will be plenty of real great recipes floating about on here!!
Glad you enjoyed my beer, I called that one 'The Nutter'

Hey mate. Al did a great job on the kegs - I picked them up earlier in the week. The brewstand is all done now too (minus attaching the final burner) so this weekend the mission is to get everything assembled so I can get everything cleaned and then run some tests, and calibration etc.
I put one keggle together last night, trying to get it water tight so I could soak it in PBW overnight (they were all pretty gross on the inside). My thread taping skills could do with some work, but otherwise it's looking good. However, I may need to talk with you about some new gaskets for the bulkheads - I think the ones you've given me are a bit too thin - even with two of them I've got a small leak. I'm going to pull this one apart again and reassemble it, so that could fix it, but I'll let you know.
Hopefully I'll have some photos to upload tomorrow.
