Thanks RM-MN!

The mash will be in my fancy new SS Brewtech mash tun and it holds temp well. Pretty excited about mashing with this by the way. It has a sloped floor with a bottom drain, etched volume marking, and I've installed a Blichmann Brewvision thermometer that talks to my phone. So That's pretty much a...

I would like to brew next weekend but I'm going to be very busy. On Sunday I could start the mash around 12:30PM but I wouldn't be able to get back to it until around 4PM at which point I'll be free to mash out, sparge, and boil. Is there any problem with an extended mash? Will it start to sour...

Brewed this beer late in November of 2015 and I loved it. I did this same this year so I've pretty much decided it will be my annual Christmas brew. I was out of town during the fermentation this year and didn't remember the sugar until I was kegging (I was planning to add during fermentation...

I'm BrewNanny "customer" who "purchased" one about two years ago and of course never received it (did anyone actually get theirs?) I was hesitant to purchase the Tilt after being burned by BrewNanny but in October I pulled the trigger. My Tilt arrived in less than a week despite being told it...

I'll let you know about the opening when they arrive in a few days.

Not that I know of. I do think that I'll be cleaning for a while this evening. I work close to home and drove home to let the dogs out. One of the dogs ended up in the laundry room licking the floor and that was a spot I thought I had gotten fairly clean already...Really looking forward to the...

Here you are. I'm glad I didn't take one of the full horror. I just stood there for a moment not believing what had happened. These are the larger pieces but there are many small ones in the trash.

So after reading the horror stories and knowing it would never happen to me, yesterday I managed to drop a carboy with about 4.5 gallons of what I think was really good wort. I got a late start and while I missed my target mash temp by two degrees (so the brown would have been a little drier, no...

I'm considering fermenting in corny kegs. I don't really mind not having a full five gallons on draft and I would rather brew more often. I've ordered two modified keg lids from Adventures in Homebrewing (they are set up to use an airlock). I plan on fermenting just enough to avoid blowoff...

No, I don't have an extra $250 lying around; I spent it back in November, remember? I've got several multimeters but thank you for the suggestion.

I only feel ripped off because I haven't received a working product. If this thing works as promised, it would be worth the $250 to ME, perhaps not you. I'm an engineer and I love geeky stuff like this. There are certainly more essential gear like the items you mention. But I'd really love to be...

I've given up on ever receiving my Brewnanny. I would advise anyone following this thread and considering making a purchase to wait until you start reading that orders have been filled with working units. Also, if they ever to start shipping, I'm sure that one of the brewing magazine will review...

I bought one of these cool looking toys back in November when you could purchase them for half-price. I think it would have been a fun tool for $250 if it were not a scam. I was promised my Brewnanny at the beginning of December but it never arrived. My emails have not been returned and to the...

I'm starting to think it's a scam.
