Chances are, theres more than a few dick heads on here that are real keyboard wantabes that know sweet FA. Well, no doubt I will get kicked off for thi...

If you don't like "Turbo yeasts" please don't post. Please return to ripping off your wife's bread making supplies If any one wants to post success story's about a new product, then go ahead. My favourite two to use are............. Alcotec Turbo 6, I buy it for $6.50 and the new one I hav...

??????????????? reflux is the way to go!

Hello West Islander!!!!

Its really hard to wrap all turbo yeasts all together guys. That would be like saying all cars are the same. Yes there are some rapid 24 hr. ones out there, but there's also some yeasts that can take two weeks. I suspect the quality of what the Americans are getting is lesser quality than what we ca...

Up date..... I distilled a flagon of corn spirit at 85% off 17 lts. Now for the interesting bit 1. I burnt down some Manuka, into charcoal and burnt chunks 2. I put the spirit through a filter containing the charcoal, which came out in a wonderful color. 3. I had cut the burnt bits of wood into chun...

I'm thinking of doing it, yet to try

That and I have run out of mash barrels.

and gissy!

no one ever said aussies were smart you know.......

I popped a sleeping pill and came up with this idea.

2 Pkts of instant coffee
5kg sugar
Good yeast

Desolve suger and coffee and make up 21 litres

add yeast and cap off with air lock


what do you think?

give it a go!, only going to cost you some yeast

if you have family in NZ you could get them to send over a reflux still!

you can vote all you like, but I suspect the real power Is with the big business

land of the free.... my ass! more like big business doesn't want you guys making your own so the general population has to buy brought stuff and pay taxes etc etc.

currently watching the motor cycle advantage's programme on sky TV. I didn't know SA was so beautiful

HI
Theres a heap of kiwis on here, and few aussies, so its good to have a south African on board too (plus a few poms). Were in SA are you from?

you poor poor souls....... the only hunting season in Nz is for ducks (2 months). All year hunting for every thing else. you can shoot as many Deer (5 species), Thar, chamois, or pigs as you can want. For the small game hunter theres Rabbits, Hares, two species of wallaby, Australian possums, and Ca...

Yep, you americans are just plain stuffed.......

I'm starting to wonder if the turbo yeast you blokes are getting in the states is rubbish. I get good results with mine.

UI hope every one is OK after the storms

Nightowl. Hello friend. First of all i understand your question and i will try and shed some light on your question. Please let me premise by saying this " There are quite a few people here whom i will not identify by name that are paranoid, shortsided and read too much crap into your type of ...

now rugby is a game. No padding, just a mouth guard. 80 minutes of full of sport. GO THE ALL BLACKS!

Is any one over 45 a old timer?

Any one had any experiences with it? I did my corn wash and the dummage was very sweet, so I put new boiled corn, boiled barley, enzyme, and the yeast in it. Its not sprinting, just a burst of CO2 every 20 seconds.

I make a tidy living cutting the stuff down for firewood, some people see it as a wonder plant, but as far as I'm concerned its a weed. I have a corn wash just about ready, so I'll do a flagon of manaka whisky.

I put some manaka honey into a bottle of rum (very nice)

Just remember, New Zealand is NOT part of Australia!!!! (we didn't want a West Island)

Here's a idea for the kiwis.... Manuka whisky. Age some spirit in manaka wood chips for a month and see how it comes out.

makes great sausage's, mix the meat up with spices etc

I find Hauraki has got a really good web site, next day drop offs etc
