    Any brewers in the Bristow/Manassas Va area?

    I'd say we typically have between 10-15 people at each meeting. This month, being a typical vacation month, will probably be pretty light.

    Show us your sculpture or brew rig

    My efficiency took a hit too... I'm still fiddling with it but I think I'm circulating too fast and the grain bed is coning (i.e. forming a whirlpool cone) leaving a little a bit of grain that doesn't rinse as well. I also think it is a switch from the 10 gallon round cooler and the 20 gallon...

    Finally... Light at the end of the tunnel

    Bob -- The unit has a 4" touch screen LED. Each stage (HLT heat, Mash, etc) has a visual indicator similar to an LED. The only additional adds I want at this point are manual overrides for a complete software failure -- and if that happens there'd be nothing controlling the LEDs anyway. Any...

    Finally... Light at the end of the tunnel

    I have two more hardware additions -- an audible alarm for manual attention (mash temp achieved -- ready for dough/in, etc) and manual override switches for the pumps and burners just in case there is a software failure. The touch screen UI has manual overrides but I want a hardware override...

    Finally... Light at the end of the tunnel

    Yesterday evening was my first brew where my controller handed the brewing process based on a recipe -- well everything except the plumbing; I still move hoses around. The Temps were kept within 1/10th of a degree and with the gas burners to subsidize ramping it took 12 minutes to achieve mash...

    3 children compared to 2

    The biggest issues I had in going from 2 to 3 was the inability to divide and conquer. You can't split 'em up and deal with issues without leaving one still running around. This transition was the hardest for us -- how do you control 3 runaway kids when there are only two of you? Get past that...

    NB's Dead Ringer IPA

    Did you brew this up man? I wouldn't worry too much about the Centennial "Type" hops; though if you want it to be a true "Dead Ringer" for the original you'll want to find some centennial and actually harvest some Bell's yeast.
