Reset didn't work. Looks like it's on the Picobrew side. If you get on the Facebook groups there's a bunch of workarounds people have come up with. Some are more technical than others, but I haven't had time to do it yet to confirm.

I'm getting that error as well today. I'm getting it when I try and pull up the recipes. Every once in a while it works, but when I click to brew that recipe it gives me the server error message again. I'm going to try resetting the system and see what it does.

Hello, I am trying to adapt a standard beer shank thread, which is as I understand it 7/8-14 UNF thread. I am trying to adapt it to a 3/4" Female NPT as well as a portable co2 dispenser, which is believe is a 1/4" MFL. I am looking to get all of this in stainless, so that is making it more...

Great Prizes! Thanks Sponsors

I just picked up one of winexpert's new kit's with the grape skins included and wanted to get some ideas on what the best way to add the skins would be. Now I know the easiest way is to add them to an plastic bucket during primary fermentation, but I really hate using plastic bucket fermenters...

So i just finished my collared keezer and noticed how much dead space there was in there. I have a 15 cf freezer i found on craigslist, and only have a 4 keg system, but do plan on using the ledge when I make a lager. Still, I have a bunch of room. I am particularly curious about utilizing the...

Nope, unfortunately I never did. I cant remember if there is a way to calibrate. I don't think so.

I just did this build this past weekend and it was a breeze. The youtube video makes it very simple, and he shows you all the parts you'll need. I believe they are a project box from radio shack, an electrical cord with bare ends, I bought some 16 gauge wire to do the wiring inside the box...

JonGrafto, Thanks for the link. Looks much easier than i anticipated. I think it'll give this a shot after all.

Ok, I see that it says on heating. I guess i was confused by the 2 outlets. It would be nice to have something off the shelf like this.

Sorry if this has already been discussed, but I couldnt find a thread on it. I am designing my fermentation chamber and found this controller on ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-Socket-Temperature-Controller-Thermostat-Aquarium-50C-/190631799179?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c628a698b Has...

I have not replaced any of the o rings. I have some extras so i will try that. The degreaser formula is good to know as well. Thanks!

So, I used 2 ounces of crushed star anise in my holiday beer, but since then I have yet to completely remove the flavor! After my beer ran out I cleaned with one step and filled the keg with my doppelbock. It quickly came to my attention that i did not sufficiently clean the keg, as the flavor...

yeah, i tried both ways, which both give different but the wrong temperatures
