craig rothwell replied to Duncan's discussion NZ Stainless Steel Fitting Suppliers"I ended up getting cam lock fittings from graham at inz hydro, he was great to deal with and I'm happy with the couplings, also got my 2 piece ball valves from him as well.

craig rothwell replied to Dougal's discussion Silicone hose supply?"I got the heavy duty silicone hose from craftbrewer.co.au; it is reasonably priced and doesn't collapse under suction pressure. "
craig rothwell replied to Duncan's discussion NZ Stainless Steel Fitting Suppliers"Hi Evan, Proflowdynamics are selling male and female cam lock fittings for about $5.2NZD and $7.90NZD each. Even with the delivery cost that Otto mentions above, it's still cheap. Who else can do this kind of a deal? Proflow…"
craig rothwell replied to Duncan's discussion NZ Stainless Steel Fitting Suppliers"Thanks Hamish. Is it the female coupling that is a two piece unit that is screwed together? I'm imagining that the female has a sleeve that you pull back to connect and disconnect to the male, is that right?
Cheers."
craig rothwell replied to Duncan's discussion NZ Stainless Steel Fitting Suppliers"From this thread it looks like most people have gone with cam lock fittings for quick disconnects.

craig rothwell left a comment for Reuben Rowntree"Hi Reuben, hope you brewing has been going well. I recall you purchased a Bilchmann conical fermenter. Are you happy with it? And do you mind telling me where and how much you payed for it? I was looking at getting the 14.5Gal one…"

Looks like a good alternative to a March pump. "
craig rothwell replied to Geoff Griggs's discussion Radler - the story unfolds"Think you'll find it's a similar test; is the consumer likely to be misled? Since the average consumer doesn't know Radler is meant to be 2.5% the average consumer can't be misled when they get a 5% one. I think the…"
craig rothwell replied to Geoff Griggs's discussion Radler - the story unfolds"I would have thought Tui East Indian Pale Ale was more misleading than Radler. Radler was registered by IPONZ because the average consumer in NZ didn't know what Radler means (at least that’s what the…"

The biggest issue will be clogging the out post of your keg. I used to dry hop that way and it can be a massive pain. Options are to cold condition for a few days as close to 0 as you can without freezing the beer. Or filter on the way out of the fermenter. Or leave it, give it time and it will settle out. Good luck mate, you really want to minimise the hop cludge into the keg.

Yeah that's what I paid, and where I got it from. I think it was like an extra $40 or something like that to get it up to Auckland. I've been very happy with it actually. Easy to clean and great features. It can't take a lot of pressure, but it isn't meant to. Just enough to transfer beer out of it. Liam has been building some cheapish plastic ones which might become available soon - on this thread here.
Hope all is well with you. Brewing has been developing really well here. You having a go at the Belgian Tripel competition coming up? I'm hopeful that I might get one ready in time.
