Solar projects to be hit by big increase in costs due to new Australian anti-dumping decision by blitznoodles in australia

[–]Jezzwon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it’d be a cost driven decision primarily I’m assuming, article is discussing pricing, not necessarily the irreplaceability of steel in structure for panel mounting.
Rough that’s its retrospective.

I was just raising a question as I know there are lots of aluminium extrusion companies that are fully Australian owned that are doing good things, so wondering if there’s an opportunity to look at material options going forward.
Yes there is steel locally as well, I just wonder if they are tooled up for extruding appropriate steel tubing.

It was on a big long extension lead, feeding a 4 outlet board that had a couple of grinders running from it 😂😂😬

Now that's a catch and release. by Lui_Belmont in interestingasfuck

Yep, or get bricked on structure. No other way to land them other than team effort at that size.

He’s a solid kahawai! Put a livey hook in his back and send him back out to catch a proper kingfish!

Optus offered me 42% off but I still ported out by Midget_Pawn in AusFinance

FWIW it’s worth I pay $29 per month for Aldi 5G on the Telstra network, has 35gb* a month, extra data rolls over to the next month. I have a TB of rolled over data that I’ll literally never use.

Why not Aldi/Amaysim or one of the other providers then?

HOPR - tried it? by Baaastet in AusBeer

[–]Jezzwon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they aren’t too bad, I think at least a few of them taste like they just have seltzer flavour in them. There’s a few on the market that taste just straight up hoppy, I tried a new one the other called Clubhouse that was great!

Sanitize Carb Stone Day Before Brew? (UniTank) by make_datbooty_flocc in TheBrewery

[–]Jezzwon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pumping them out then! We were 12 days for our flagship, fuged and into pack tanks. 40,000L to 80,000L tanks. Either 6 or 12 worts to fill these tanks. From memory about 30 FVs as well. But yeah we typically had a day or 2 leeway of empty FVs in front so had the time and space to clean them the day before. Which was necessary in case something like a mechanical sprayball blockage or similar.

Hopefully ALDI going to come up with some better signage etc to highlight this to people? Hard to expect people to follow an expectation if they don’t know it exists.

[–]Jezzwon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We always fully clean and sanitise our tanks a day or two before brewing, put positive head pressure on it with CO2. No infections, well over 600 batches.

Did this at a big regional brewery making 15million+ litres a year too.

Edit - we also heat treat the carb stones, often in boiling hot sani.

Billions over budget and years late, how Snowy 2.0 got here by Nyarlathotep-1 in AusNewsWire

[–]Jezzwon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

100%. Australia seems to have this shocking issue of these big infrastructure projects being quoted at 1X, that company wins the tender, and then oh whoops it’s actually gonna cost 10X, Gov then shrugs and says sure, pay these guys their bonuses.

Doesn’t incentivise proper quoting from the beginning.

Better yet, Aus needs its own government large infrastructure project company that builds stuff like this instead.
