    Brewtarget 2.3.0 First Wort Hops

    Perfect, thanks!

    Brewtarget 2.3.0 First Wort Hops

    How? The only thing I've found is dividing the alpha acid by 100. For example, instead of 6.2%, 0.062.

    Brewtarget 2.3.0 First Wort Hops

    The github thread on this issue with First Wort Hops is closed, https://github.com/Brewtarget/brewtarget/issues/177 There seems to be some confusion about when or if this issue is fixed. According to the thread, it's fixed in 2.3.1, but on the download page...

    Brewtarget 2.0 Update

    I think I know what is the cause of this. There are probably two separate issues here. 1) The confirmation dialog is at the lowest Z-order for some reason. This is an easy fix on my Ubuntu system as it has a fixed monitor configuration (see #2). If I just minimize other windows, I can...

    Brewtarget 2.0 Update

    I use ubuntu 14.04 on one system and Windows 8.1 on my other system and they share a database for brewtarget using the "directory" option and Dropbox. Works well on both, even on my hidpi monitor (which a lot of other java programs do NOT handle very well). I suspect your issue is...

    Brewtarget 2.0 Update

    Using 2.1.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 and Windows 8.1 (dropbox shared database). Works great, imported settings are spot on (hit target temps, volumes and gravities on first attempt). Very pleased. A couple of minor issues: On Windows, sometimes, I don't get the "do you want to save" window on exit...

    Brewtarget 2.0 Update

    No worries, now that I understand it, I can at least edit the output. Unfortunately, most of the non-escaped characters are in the style notes :(

    Brewtarget 2.0 Update

    When I export to beer.xml, to add an entry to a competition, it says invalid xml. In the past, I just ignored it and manually entered my entries, but this time, I walked through the errors until I got an entry to submit and the issue is that the contents of many of the fields are using non xml...

    Colorado Springs - looking for a scoby

    On the west side. Found one clear down in Security but would rather not make the drive. I have a house guest who is a Kombucha connoisseur and would like to see if I can get one going in the next day or two.

    Star san consistency of maple syrup

    Yeah, it is normally a bit viscous, but not like this. This is really thick and sticks together in a clump when I pour it into a vessel, but it seems to behave normally once I add the appropriate amount of water. It is hard to get it through the fill tube to the built in measuring cup. I thought...

    Star san consistency of maple syrup

    I recently picked up some star san from the lhbs and it's consistency is like maple syrup. I imagine the warehouse was not heated and it was frozen at some point, but I expected it to soften up when stored at room temp, but a month later and it's still like honey. I've been using it but wondered...

    brewing Indoors with Propane

    Of couse, but I guess the real question is, if your home was safe for indoor natural gas or propane, why wouldn't it be safe for indoor camp stoves (strictly with respect to ventilation)? I'm not asking for you to sign off on it :)

    brewing Indoors with Propane

    So since my home is heated with natural gas and has a natural gas stove (both of which could be converted to propane if I wanted to go "off the grid"), I can safely use my banjo burner indoors (with respect to carbon monoxide)?

    brewing Indoors with Propane

    I have been searching on the internet for an hour and cannot seem to find the answer to why some homes use propane for heating, hot water heaters and indoor stoves, yet a camp stove indoors is so dangerous. There are 4 burners and a fifth on the stove on a propane range. Surely that would...

    improving efficiency

    According to the wiki, depending on temperature, the mash is "generally converted" after 15-30 minutes, depending on rest temperature. According to the chart it looks like 65 minutes or so. Perhaps I've been reading that wrong. Further down it also mentions, I typically do 60 for most beers...
