    Pretty sure I under pitched...

    I am actually having the same issue right now. Brewed a smoked porter and used wyeast 1056 American ale. Made a 2L starter and pitched at 69 then brought it down to 67. OG was 1.062 and has stalled for the last 4 days at 1.022. Need to get this sucker down to 1.012 ish. Even tried upping the...

    First brew on new control panel...

    I actually went a lot off your build, my Dad was the one that talked me into the Raspberry Pi set up. I used your DC pumps idea and ordered like 6 and modified the plugs so just in case one went out during a brew it is a quick fix. I am more of a hardware guy, my Dad loves the Pi setups. I...

    First brew on new control panel...

    Merry Christmas everyone! So all the high voltage 50 amp components are in a separate enclosure. The Pi unit has an intake and exhaust fan, pulls in air directly underneath the 40 amp SSRs. This unit does not get hot at all. I’ve got my dad compiling a list of everything in the unit so I can...

    First brew on new control panel...

    I went ahead and brewed a porter, I had the ingredients lying around and needed to use it. I am not very versed in RasberryPi, but that’s what he built for me. Running RasberryPi 3 with craftbeer pi 2.2. Using it to control 3 24v dc pumps and 2 5500w heaters on my eHerms setup. Set up for 50amp...

    First brew on new control panel...

    My Dad decided to give me my Christmas present early. So I brewed a test batch today, still some kinks to work out but went very well.

    Keg conditioning time...

    Ok, was just getting worried. What temp are you conditioning at?

    Keg conditioning time...

    About 3 weeks ago I kegged my holiday ale. My OG was 1.081 and final was 1.021. It didn’t finish out as low as I wanted but oh well, it definitely stalled there. So I kegged it and 3 weeks later it taste the exact same as the day I kegged it. How long is everyone keg conditioning their beer...

    What do I need for my first keezer build?

    I have been trying to steer clear of Northern Brewer as of late, but they have a great deal on faucet kits. It includes the faucet, shank and line for 50.00. https://www.northernbrewer.com/draft-brewer-build-a-keezer I actually just ordered 3 not to long ago because you can't beat the price...

    Starting my eHERMS build!!!!

    So I have decided to go a different route than originally planned. I was going to go with a modified clone of Kal's setup using DC pumps and PIDS. Well things change. Now using RasberryPi 2.0 (my Dad talked me into it) with DC pumps. Trying the inaugural batch today. Brewing a Christmas beer...

    Starting my eHERMS build!!!!

    Well I finally started getting stuff delivered for my build. Going with 24V DC pumps instead of bigger pumps, mainly because I be on a tight budget. Most of the kettle plumbing and set up will be similar to Kal's build (thank you for the informational threads you put out). I will put more pics...

    Facelift for my control panel

    My 24v DC pumps came in... these suckers are tiny! My wife say them and called them cute :drunk: Just need everything else to come in off the slow boat from China.
