Just checked and I dont think I need to be anywhere so saturday would be great! What time are you free saturday? (if you still are) and do you have an email I can send my address too?
Cheers

grab it may be worth taking one of your carbonated kegs to check the lines, connectors and tap with. Will help to rule out where the problem is. That is if you want to give up the beer. You may need a designated driver if you lot get it worked out, or leb will need to roll out the spare beds .

Hi Lebowski and Grab,

Please post back how you go with the kegs. I've got the first brews for our kegs in the fermenters as we speak and I'm really keen to hear how you sort this out. Might help save us a bit of grief.

For what it's worth, good luck getting things sorted.

Cheers

TBH

Yeah, good luck with it Grab and Lebowski. I know what the keg setup dramas are like.

Wish I had you grab to give me a hand seting up a while back.

ok lebowski and hillbilly, just back from day at Feral brewery,! Feeling very happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (take as pissed, started at b11.30, just got home is now 10.30pm!!!!!)

call me on ############# to set up the session, ask for Simon, yeah I know risky giving ph no here but sh! happens!!!

tomorrow after 9am perth time is fine to call!!

Put the number in my phone so u can edit the post and delete it now if you want. Will probably call about 10/11 if thats ok.

All will be fine, everyone have a nice day.

And Grab, If someone with a Canadian accent calls at 0 dark thirty and asks if you have Prince Albert in a can, Its not me OK.... just wanted to set that straight

Dogger

me and my aching head, not to mention empty wallet will be waiting!

HIllbilly are you joining us as well?

Yeah I'm in, just wanted to give you a buzz but ya numbers gone!

sorry hillbilly, it's oops gone again!


had to remove it in case Dogger was trying to get through!

Thanks for the visit guys. Was good to have a chat and get a few tips as well as sorting the keg system.

no worries Nick, hopefully you get it sorted, let us know how you get on swapping the tap!

thanks for the brews! will sit back and enjoy them later

oh yeah, the passionfruit beer wasn't bad after all, big on aroma with subtle flavours!

Have to get the Perth boys all together somtime for a few beers

Hey Grab,

We have something here in Canada we call pen and paper, you can write things with it

So, sounds like........ the tap? maybe

Don't keep us in suspense

Cheers for the beers Nick, hope all goes well with the kegs, keeps us posted. Getting the Perth boys together sounds like a great idea, Grab keep us posted when the local HB shop has the brew day, that would be tops.
Hillbilly

yeah Dogger, tap might be part of the problem. Hope you don't mind me filling Dogger in Nick!

Tap appeared to have a leak from around the top of handle, is an EK style swing tap not a lever. WE suggested that as system is still new, only two weeks old, that taps should be returned to HBS for replacement. Other than that we adjusted pressures and all seems well. Nick will keep us posted on how it goes!

And yes Hillbilly I'll let you know when the brew day is on. Also next all- grain will probably be weekend after Bathurst if you are interested.

Grab

Good Work Guys

I will have a couple of wets for you just to show my support to this venture Damn near had my bag and was on my way to stick in my 2 cents.


And as the little ditty goes

"Glorious........ Glorious
1 Keg of beer for the 4 of Us"


Dogger

Sounds great Grab, Ill give you a call 2 c what day and time, cheers.

Good to hear you got it sorted could have taken a long time via this means to find a leaking tape. At worst the HBS should put a new seal kit in the tap, at best replace it.

From memory Dogger was the closest to the problem blaming the right angle of the tap, the rest of us were not even close . Goes to show you can not always trust everything from the HBS to be apples.

how are you chilling the beer sounds like the beer is getting warm before it gets to the tap this causes the gas to come out of the beer causeing it to foam trust me i know i have had this problem and its all around temp if you have played with pressure i have at times found around 20-30 psi works well too

20-30 psi

Holy Crap Batman

How far are you taking it and how warm is it?
