    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    Well last night I was bored and just wiped the card and put a fresh image wheezy on the card. I manually set the region and time zone in advanced settings, reboot and well damn the time is still wrong. I must have faulty hardware. I guess I'll just use another pi I have laying around for...

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    It's a time zone issue. The internal clock is set 12 or so hours behind my time zone. I've tried manually setting it in the settings but it won't work. In the settings the time zone is displayed correctly CST. It's strange. Like I've said I tried multiple fixes short or wiping the card and...

    Dec 17 BYO response to Mash pH questions

    There was quite a storm in the new BYO that just dropped regarding mash pH measurements. Specifically weather the ideal mash pH is 5.2 - 5.6 @ mash temp or room temp. Starting on pg 21. It seems Ashton Lewis (Mr. Wizard) feels this ideal pH range refers to measurements taken mash temp and...

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    Having an issue with the time on my brewpi. The time in the graph is wrong. It's a little over 13 hours behind the time that is on the pi at the system level. If I open the gui on the OS the time is set correct. The weird thing is if I make a new profile and select "start now" the time is...

    Blackberry Sour Recipe Help

    Add your yeast and bacteria in primary and let it go as long as it needs. It will likely need more than 6 months. I taste my sours at 2 weeks to make sure something is not off. Then at three month intervals. Once you are happy with the beer rack it onto the fruit and let if referment for 2-3...

    One question I haven't seen answered about those sam's beverage coolers. Even though they aren't rated for this would they cool okay in a hot garage in south texas? Thanks

    For those that use a ten gallon pot: what is your typical preboil volume?

    maybe your boil time? i dunno. You for sure don't need 9 gallons preboil if you are doing a 60 min boil.

    Where to Place Temperature Probe in Kegerator

    I took a full can of beer and taped the probe to it insulated with bubble wrap. I place the can on the compressor hump. Works okay for me.

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    This happened to me once. I could never solve the issue so I wiped and reinstalled. Which reminds me... I need to image my sd card for a quick restore.

    Additions (coconut) to Primary/Secondary, sanitation?

    I did a coconut porter last year. 5 gal batch. I toasted 1 bag of shredded coconut and threw it in the secondary. It turned out good, but I think the flavor was too subtle. Will definitely double it or more next time. Just taste it along the way and package when you think its right.

    Yeast starter

    the problem if you didn't boil is you'll probably have some lacto or other bugs in your starter that you don't want in your beer.
