I got my first stuck mash today. I tried blowing in the hose and cutting slits in the mash bed. Neither one worked. It has been dribbling out for about an hour and a half now. I guess I will just wait and see how it turns out. I'm making a pumpkin ale and I forgot to add a lb of rice hulls...

I'm going out of town on another snowboarding trip, so I do not think I will be working on this anytime soon. Therefore, I am releasing BrewCalc Version 1.0.2 for Windows Mobile. I did not have time to finish the save and open functions yet, but I did get the export to html function working...

Just a screenshot: http://www.thehotfire.net/brew/ Send me some feedback. What other calculations do you want? Post it here or send me an email at: [email protected] P.S. Looking at my 5 empty kegs and my 3 empty fermenters makes me sad :(

I made some real progress the last couple of days. The app now has a results page. It estimates OG, color and IBUs. Im in the process of rewriting the open, save and export functions. Hopefully I will have it ready in the next couple of days.

Thanks for the feedback. There was a bug in the abv calculator. I changed the equation to ABV = (OG-FG)*131.25. I posted the new version (1.0.1) at http://www.thehotfire.net/brew/

Sure. Please send me some feedback and any bug reports to [email protected]

I have not had much time to work on this lately. It still needs a little work but this should give you something to play around with. Get it at: http://www.thehotfire.net/brew/

I should have kept my mouth shut until I was done with it. Now I have pressure to get it done. Anyway my test platform is my old Samsung which runs WM5 (my app should run on WM6 too). I am also testing it on an emulator on my computer. My app will require the .NET compact framework which...

I got sick and didn't work on it as much as I had hoped. I am making some progress though. I just finished entering the 2008 BJCP Style Guidelines for the target style part of the app. Now I'm working on the ingredients section.

I recently started coding a win mobile brewing app. I will post it in a few days, after I make some more progress.

I agree. Let it go!

My last batch I didnt strain my wort but the hops settled to the bottom of my primary. I just racked to secondary a few days ago, and I dont see any hops in it any more. Next time I am going to make one of these. Check out The Hop Hanger at the bottom of this page...

It is the West coast pale ale. The room is about 70-75 degrees. I went the the homebrew shop but they were out of a lot of equiptment. I plan on getting a real kit when I get back to denver in a few months. But until then Mr. Beer is all I have.

I recently got a Mr. Beer kit and started brewing a beer. I used the normal instructions but added 1/2 cup of honey. It has been in the fermenter for 8 days now. I thought it looked like it was done so I poured a shot and tasted it. It is still sweet and cloudy. Is my yeast dead? Can I...
