    The 500 club

    My next brew will be #122. I started brewing in 2010, and all but the first 10 or 12 were all-grain 10-gallon batches that were kegged.

    English Ales - What's your favorite recipe?

    I think it was imported by Shelton Brothers, and they went belly-up a few years ago. I was in Edinburgh for a few days last week, and the pub next to my hotel had Landlord on cask. It was superb, and I probably had 20 pints of the stuff at various pubs. I have brewed a few different recipes...

    Corn Syrup

    Your math is off by a factor of 100. It's actually .12%.

    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    Did you ever have a chance to look at the screenshots you requested? https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/fermentrack-fermentation-monitoring-brewpi-www-replacement-for-raspberry-pi.649303/post-10267044 My Fermentrack Pi was unreachable yesterday (seems to happen a lot), so I rebooted it. It...

    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    I saw the "Unable to load device with ID 1" error at the top at when I rebooted the Pi, but it's gone now. I also have the "Cannot receive LCD text from Controller/Script" message. I also see multiple instances of the following in syslog. Is this normal? Jun 11 23:17:17 fermentrack kernel...

    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    I do, but I deleted the screenshot because I assumed it was referring to the Tilt device I'd powered off after fermentation was complete, and didn't want to muddy the waters.

    Thorrak, Did you see the images I posted here? https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/fermentrack-fermentation-monitoring-brewpi-www-replacement-for-raspberry-pi.649303/post-10261987 Any suggestions?

    English Ales - What's your favorite recipe?

    Sorry to butt in, but it's here: Recipe: Machine House Dark Mild – Machine House Brewery Very, very tasty. Can't wait for my next visit to Seattle; I assume they'll be in their new location by then.

    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    Shouldn't the whole second row show the beer temp, fridge temp, control mode, and log interval?

    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    Any idea what would cause the values in the second row to be empty? I have my chamber set to 40F (fridge constant), and it's maintaining the temperature, and the log data and LCD display show the correct temperatures. After doing a fresh install after several years of rock-solid service, things...

    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    My beer still wasn't cooling to the proper temperatures, so I took another look. Believe it or not, my chamber temperature sensor also seems to have gone bad. Like the beer sensor, it read about 10F lower than the actual temperature. When I stripped the original sensor wires, I noticed a little...

    Finally got around to splicing the new sensor, and everything seems to have gone smoothly. Thanks for your help!

    [OT] HAM Radio Folks?

    I've spent a lot more time brewing beer over the last few years than fooling around with my radios, but I figured I'd say howdy. I had just started studying for the Extra exam, but then I started a new job that has given me 90 days to get an IT certification, so I'll get back to the exam when I...

    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    Yeah, the freezer works/cools. A rundown: After brewing on Saturday, I put about 12 gallons of bitter in a Speidel fermenter inside the freezer. I'm in south Texas, so my counterflow chiller only got the wort down to 73 degrees. I keep the freezer near freezing when I'm not fermenting anything...

    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    Thanks for the quick reply. It's too dark to fool around in my garage after a few pints, so I will try offsetting the beer setpoint by the number of degrees the fridge sensor is off, then see where I am in the morning. I'll start cutting wires tomorrow.

    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    I've been running Fermentrack for several years, but I have a fermenting beer, and the temperature is 4 or 5 degrees above the set point, but my chest freezer isn't cooling. I suspect the fridge temperature probe is faulty, as it shows a temperature several degrees below the actual value. I have...

    Texas San Antonio CO2 source?

    Sorry for the late response, but I get mine filled at A-1 Fire & Safety on Rhapsody (roughly on the other side of 281 from the old Home Brew Party location). They fill my tanks within 10 or 15 minutes. Be aware that they are sticklers for ensuring that your tanks have current hydrostatic...

    Sharing Nostalgia with the Beginners: What Was The First Beer Your Brewed?

    I had to look it up in BeerSmith: MoreBeer ESB, brewed on May 25th, 2010. I've since brewed 113 batches of much better beer.
