    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Sorry, what I meant was I thought I'd read that there was an issue with the ethernet shield for the MEGA having connection issues. When I said timing, I meant that there'd probably be script timing issues if the ethernet connection was spotty. Just trying to make sure I plan well, having two...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Hi, I just wanted to follow up on the issues I've seen mentioned regarding using the ethernet shield on the MEGA 2560. Is it correct to say that you believe the timing is unreliable to the point of system instability if I'm trying to coordinate timing between a USB interface and an ethernet...

    Pressure Fermentation vs. Blow-off Cane in Unitank

    Hello, I just preordered 2 of the new 14 gallon Unitanks coming out from SS Brewtech next month. The fermenters can be pressurized up to 15 psi recommended (30 psi max). I've been reading about the virtues of pressure fermentation and I'd imagine it'll take some time to figure out if I like...

    At what point do you stop upgrading your gear?

    I have the same problem, probably around $30k in recording studio, only $5k in brewing, brewing has some catching up to do!

    The worst beer I have ever had in my life...

    Mine was definitely this swill I had in a hotel in Beijing when I got stuck there after missing a connecting flight to Bangkok. Just for perspective, my GF and I had been flying for 12 hrs, were pissed at the airline, and got put up in a crappy hotel, and these were the only beers we could...

    Anywhere to buy brand new green beer bottles?

    Hmm, yeah, I'm just doing 5 gallons, so that would be extreme overkill. Hmmm. I wouldn't mind buying beer and drinking it so much if it wasn't Heineken. Rolling Rock is even worse. Anyway, thanks for the tips.

    Anywhere to buy brand new green beer bottles?

    I know most prefer brown bottles to prevent skunk, but I'm making a batch that I want to be green bottled since it seems appropriate for the "special ingredient" batch that I'm making. I don't intend to expose the beers to sunlight. But, I've been having a hard time finding them anywhere new...
