Hi does anybody know any Brewers in Denmark near Copenhagen that would want any Brewing kit ? I am moving out of Denmark back to the UK so I have load of gear to get rid off. Good for a Beginner or brewer alike I have a temp controlled Chest freezer 5 X Tilt type electronic temp and gravity...

I took one liter of tap water and dissolved 100g of sugar, so (after googling what Plato is) suggests you are correct the scale must be plato even though there are no markings on the hydrometer, other than below, and there was no documentation with the hydrometer. But I translated the text on...

Hi Guys , this is the reading I took from 1 liter of tap water with 100g of dissolved table sugar at a temp of 20 C It look to be 1.095

So I had made a little mistake in that I thought it was calibrated at 15 C when it should have been 20 C (Room Temp ish ) would 5 C make such a difference ?

Hi Guys, apologies busy day at work. The way that Hydrometer works is that it read's 0 when in water. So as SG of water is 1..... when the density of the water increases the hydrometer rises. The next digit down is 1 whic I erad to understand is 1.010 and then 1.020. You can see my...

In that case ... that explains it ..... I have been using a finer grain size + longer fermentation period at optimal temp + double live starter for faster sugar conversion + I have been using boil in the bag without sparge wort dilution and accuratly keeping +/- 2% C to the mash tempritures at...

This is FG room temp now (not 15 C which read 0.25 ) for the Belgian Double which reads 0.02 at room temp approx 21 C

I am ignoring the iSpindle readings because the low battery voltage could throw the results and made them go mental (even though no dry hops) My Hydrometer read. SG 1.135 15 C FG 0.025 15 C The grain Bill was from as kit from Brew Monk (Sister Caramel Brown). An undisclosed mix of Pils...

Hi Guys, I am begining to question myself as to why this keeps happening. When brewing whole grain kits and my own recepies for double IPA's and Belgian Doubles ...... I end up for target ABV's according to the recepies of approx 7-9 % ABV actually getting 12 - 13 % ABV's !!! I...

Thanks for your help appreciated :thumbsup:

Correct, I was only planning to ferment it for 48hrs then pitch until the Fermentation chamber died. I only opened the freezer 4 times over 2 weeks.
