Hi All, Much too much diacytl on my latest lager. I did a rest for 3 days at 65F, but I'm assuming there was not enough yeast left to clean it up. It's now laggering in it's third week. Are there any options I have to clean the diacytl. Thanks in Advance, Frank

Hi Folks, Just switching from plate chiller to counter flow. For cleaning of it, I ran PBW and then clean water through it. Thinking about my brew day tomorrow and I'm wondering what's the best method to sanitize. If I run sanitizer through it on brew day won't I have up to 25' of...

Hi All, I looking few a number of posts and maybe I'm just being extra cautious, but wanted direct confirmation of a few things as I'm switching from CO2 to nitrogen on my stout faucet because I'm still not sure that I am sure. 1) It's called a nitrogen 'tank', but it's filled with Beer gas...

I finished my setup and justed wanted to say thanks to day_trippr and all the developers and comments on here. It's a great tool from a great beer community. To the question about use, I found a few taprooms actually using Rapsberry pints directly for their display. FWIW

This is weird. I also don't see the changes in the browser unless I close chromium and re-open it. For example, I made a change via the admin tool to the name of the browser and it didn't show up. I had to close chromium on the pi and relaunch it and then it read the change.

Also, I had one further question.....is there a way to trigger a refresh into chromium? For example, if I change the name of a beer, is there a way to get it to show up without relaunching chromium?

Thanks for the help. I was able to get a workaround working. I still don't know why the commands in the autostart file don't appear to be getting executed. Here's what I did in case anyone else has this same problem: To stop the screen blanking sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install...

Thanks. Do you think it's possible that the autostart is never running for some odd reason? The screen blanking is not getting turned off which I find odd, even if Chromium wasn't starting, it should turn off the blanking if the autostart is getting executed.

I posted this in the [Initial Release] folder, didn't realize there is a seperate thread for 2.0 which I have installed. My issue is I can't get chromium to run at launch and I can't get the screensaver blanking to turn off. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Here is my LXDE-pi...

I can't figure out why chromium isn't launching when I reboot and my screen blanking is still active. I've double and tripled checked the autostart file. I don't see any problems with this file after double and triple checking. Any ideas? I've searched the forum and it looks like most...

Hi, I'm sure this has likely been asked before (and I did try to search this thread). But I am about to start this project, and i was wondering if I could order the Model 3 Pi with WiFi built in instead of the Model 2 + USB Wifi? TIA.

Thanks for the response...my thoughts are that given the gravity had held constant for a few days, it might be a while to finish attenuating since it appears fermentation is slowing down, in which case its possible CO2 has been absorbed. But I dont get why the gauge would read, 0 unless the...

Hoping someone can help me with this...since Im new to using a spunding valve. I needed my fermentation chamber for an upcoming brew so I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to try out my spunding valve. I have 6pts of gravity left to go. Prior to this I tested out the empty keg...

Thanks for that tip. I really like the zesting+Vodka method you mention. I've always done fresh/frozen in a secondary, but for oranges this seems like a good method. I assume you've done this method before with success?

Doing a cascade orange ale and I was considering adding orange flesh to the boil at either at flameout (or maybe 5m). Will that work? Couldn't find much in a search. I was also going to add a small amount of sweet orange peel. Didn't want to bother with a secondary fruit addition.
