    CraftBeerPi - Raspberry Pi Software

    Fair enough. I guess I should rephrase my question then. Why have resistors, transistors, and diodes at all then? Why not just have the GIPO pins connect directly to the block terminals?

    CraftBeerPi - Raspberry Pi Software

    I'm putting the final components on my Terragady 4.2 board and I was wondering if anyone could help by explaining what each component is doing? I some basic understanding of the hardware involved, but I'd love to learn more. Some simple like the GIPO send the 3.3v signal through the resistors...

    CraftBeerPi - Raspberry Pi Software

    @SHvanBommel Are there any boards left to purchase? Or is there a link to buy a board? I just stumbled across this thread and want to start a build.

    Pinner IPA Clone Recipe

    I've fallen for Pinner too! It's so good! I've been searching for clone as well. I think the crystal has to be really light, maybe C15 or C20. For the hops, I found an article that mentions the hops: "Pinner is dry-hopped with Mosaic, Citra, Eldorado and Azsaca hops, for aroma and flavor...

    Anyone clone 3F's Robert the Bruce?

    Had my brew day on last Sat and the only change i made was I used crystal 60L instead of 55. I used the Saaz as a first wort hop and Fuggles all at 90 mins. Brew day went smooth. I nailed my pre boil gravity and my post boil OG was 1.062, a few points off the recipe, but good enough. Pitched a...

    Anyone clone 3F's Robert the Bruce?

    Yup, I'm going off of that grist % amounts. My LHBS is pretty good on stocking lots of malts, but I'm not sure about the 40 and the 55. Might have to go with the cara you mentioned and crystal 60.

    Anyone clone 3F's Robert the Bruce?

    I too have been searching for a Robert clone and probably have pulled up the same old threads you have. I got the opportunity to have a few pints last week when I was in Chicago and would love to clone in here on the west coast. The recipe does sound about right, but I question the mash temp...

    First Sour Mash - Cheater's Framboise

    Any word on how it turned out? Was 9lbs of raspberries enough/too much? How about the overall sourness and the bitterness?

    Autumn Seasonal Beer Samhain Pumpkin Ale

    Thanks! It tasted about the same in the pumpkin. It actually went flat pretty quick, so it tasted flat... When I drilled the hole for the tap I intentionally made it smaller and was able to screw the tap in. I tested it with water first and no leaks. It did absorb a ton of the water so that's...

    Autumn Seasonal Beer Samhain Pumpkin Ale

    I hollowed out a pumpkin, drilled a small hole, and shoved the tap from my 5 gallon cooler mash tun. Filled it up with this pumpkin beer and brought it to a party. I think people were excited it was a pumpkin keg and loved the beer! Filling it up! The final pumpkin keg

    It's still a little rough. Maybe a couple of weeks out still but I'm be tracking its progress closely :)

    Autumn Seasonal Beer Samhain Pumpkin Ale

    Just made some pumpkin beer floats with vanilla ice cream and this beer. So awesome! Talk about a SWMBO killer!
