I flashed a D1 Mini pro with the ModeMCU flasher (16m flash size) and BrewPiLess.v4.1r4.d1pro.newui.16m14m.bin. It appears to have flashed OK and the LED on the board flashes about every 2 seconds but the brewpiless network never shows up on my wifi. Idea why?

Duh My mistake, I've got the wrong thread. Thanks for the info.

I'm in the process of building a BrewPiLess using a D1 Mini Pro and was thinking of installing Fermentrack but all the install instruction I can find have you flashing it from a Rpi which I don't have. Is there a way to flash it directly?

Just make sure the beer is organic, you composted the grains and used pure water from your own spring in the backyard.

I know the Foundry hasn't been out for that long but has anyone had any problems with it? I really like the idea of these but the one thing that bothers me is if something breaks it's scrap unless you can get parts. Since they're made in China I doubt there are any available. At least if...

Where are you getting dried kveik? The only place I've been able to find has been promising to have it for home brewers for about a year.

I've had a plastic milk jug of Star San develop a leak after a year or so and know of two other people that this has happened to.

I did that at our previous house for years. Wisconsin winters were too cold to mash outdoors. I made an electric HLT so I could safely mash in the basement. I'd carry the wort out to boil in two batches to make it easier.

BeerSmith calculated the cell count at 464 billion and the OG was 1.052 so I guess underpitching probably isn't the problem. The water profile (first time I've tried adjusting this too) Ca 118 Mg 17 Sodium 11.5 Sulfate 184 Chloride 140 Bicarb 0 It's been lagering at about 34º for two weeks now...

Brewed a German Pils my first lager. I know Imperial yeasts are supposed have enough cells to direct pitch but I figured this being a lager I'd make a 2 liter starter. It was on the stir plate about 24 hours and then cold crashed overnight, decanted and pitched with the wort at 57º. Fermentation...

May all your new years brews be tasty.

Gives a whole new meaning to "bottle bombs".

+1 but if you have camlock fittings on the hoses make sure ALL of them have hose clamps on them. Almost took out a windshield because I didn't. :oops:

Anything that makes it through your regime deserves to live. ;) +1 on everything mentioned above especially the Vinator. Saves a lot of time and sanitizer. If you want to make sure your bottles are squeaky clean a bottle brush with the little loop on the handle cut off in a cordless drill and...

They also have a home brew recipe I've been thinking of trying. https://www.toastale.com/homebrew-recipe/

+1 on the Bev-seal ultra. Just make sure you get the quick disconnect fittings to go with it. Getting the tubing on to regular barbed fittings is a *****. It's not the easiest stuff to work with as it's stiffer than standard line but definitely worth it. You'll need a few more feet than regular...

Until recently (I got one of those SS mesh hop baskets, jury's still out on it) I've always just tossed the hops into the kettle and fermenter. I do use gelatin but that's more to remove haze causing proteins than hops. Even before I had a way to cold crash the hops settled out with time. You...

Do you go around poking wasps nest too? ;) You'll probably going to get as many answers as there are people on here. I've tried both ways sprinkling gently and running it in with just a hose with no noticeable difference in efficiency. IMHO if you keep about an inch of water above the grain bed...

I have a 1 gallon water jug that I mix up Starsan in and it lasts for several brews. Some goes in a spray bottle and the stuff that gets used to sanitize the fermenter and smaller things gets returned for reuse. 10+ years of brewing and I'm half way through my second bottle of Starsan.
