Hi all, So I cant get my head around this!! I am getting a HUGE amount of what I assume must be CO2 in my beer line (as I dont see any beer where it shouldn't be!) Its got to the point that if I leave it for a day or two there is more gass than beer. If I manage to actually...

Hows it team, So I know that in the past these have used a straight up relay and not a SSR output. . . . . . . . So what is the deal with this?? Scroll down, it has "SSR" printed as output?!?!?! Is this just straight up porkies? Or has something changed?

So this isn't a freak out, it's a geek out. A exercise in mental exploration haha. I decided that the bottles I had conditioning were too cold (11c) but the fermenting fridge was full. Aka being impatient. Came up with a plan to put a fan heater on supper low and face it down into the crate...

So I brewed a fairly standard AG best bitter. But for some strange reason decided to throw in a touch of roasted barely. I just tried it for the first time tonight, although it wasn't really carbonated i think I have a good grasp on what it's going to taste like. Question is what category...

So I had a brew day planned this weekend when I realised I dont have enough dark crystal for the oatmeal stout in brewing clasic styles. I do have some, but I'm about 100g short (so I have a little over half of what is called for). How much is that going to effect the final out come...

So need to use some random left over stuff up!! Here is what I have at the moment. . . . . thoughts? It is a loose attempt at a English bitter. Not really worried about WHAT it is . . .more that it will be tasty! haha Mostly concerned with the malt to biter ratio and if it is around correct...

Hi all, So I have two objectives. 1 brew a tasty beer ( dont really care about the style being supper close) 2 use up some of the grain on hand! So I i k I'm going to base this on the special bitter in brewing clasic styles. It calls for special roast. I'm thinking of swapping that out...

I have attempted to google these things. But I cant find specific answers for these questions and software version combination. I currently use ibrewmaster. I have started the beeralchemy trial though. I plan on using the two together ( guess thats another topic!). A few questions before I...

Hello all, I'm looking for some help in trying to move to electric brewing. I'm hoping to do it very differently to most of you, we are in the process of buying our first home and getting ready for baby number 1. Let's just say funds are tight! Right now I am doing BIAB on the kitchen stove...

I opened another bottle of my latest brew today and got a surprise. A bottle cap to the teeth and a very loud POP! It was going fast enough to hurt like mad. I looked down expecting to see a gusher, but to my surprise just a normally carbonated beer. Completely consistent with the rest of the...

I messed up my first BIAB batch and mashed at a really high temp. I am almost certain I know what went wrong and how to fix it. Now I am looking for information on how to make THIS BATCH the most drinkable. This was going to be a cascade APA, based on Edwort's recipe ( can post the full...

Hi all, So I just put down my first AG BIAB brew. I have done a few beers from kits that have gone really well but im a NOOOOOOOOOOOB for AG. A few things went fairly bad, so I was looking to get a bit of help trouble shooting. Also deciding what really is a problem and what to not...

Hi all, So first off I couldn't find anything quiet the same as this, but if I just did a s%#t google and failed miserably kindly inform me that I am a muppet and direct me in the right direction :) But I just wanted to see if anyone else in this community is using the software. In my...

So round 1 kicks off today! I get the feeling that a lot of home brew is going to be sunk, and a lot of TVs are going to be yelled at! What's your playoff beer? And who are you backing? Sent from my iPad using Home Brew
