I just sat down with my new ESP32 TTGO and tried flashing it with TiltBridge. Unfortunately, every time I try to do so, I get the error in the screen shot attached. Any thoughts?
I bought myself a LILYGO ESP32 T-Display Module for Arduino Development Board TTGO LCD Wi-Fi BLE CH9102F Chip
that worked great for one lager fermentation. I left it plugged in far a week or two after fermentation was done and, when I finally went to unplug it, I noticed the display wasn't...
That's almost exactly it!
Rather than having it doubled over on itself, mine is flat - it was easier for me to solder that way and also tucks up under the tabletop nicely.
I will dig into my BrewSmith settings when I get a chance. I noticed this thread from years ago and it sounds similar to...
Oops, I corrected that - my counterflow chiller is made from four pieces of copper tube, each one 5' long. There are three short pieces of silicone hose that connect the copper tubes. This is mounted flat underneath my brew table. It is connected to a pump that draws wort from the bottom corner...
Yes, "what's left" is wort.
I whirlpool at the end of the boil and try not to get greedy when pulling the wort out of the boil kettle so I don't get a lot of crap in the fermenter.
My counterflow chiller is 20' long plus the hoses that connect the pump to the chiller and the chiller to the...
I calculated the pre-boil volume needed based on how much gets left behind in the brew kettle, my counterflow chiller, and my fermenter so that Im guaranteed to have plenty to fill a 5 gallon keg (I'm greedy and want it full LOL).
According to BeerSmith, my pre-boil gravity should have been...
Update: I followed the advice you folks suggested and I have NEVER had a better boil!
As soon as the wort started to boil, I backed off on the power percentage and let it boil for about 5 minutes before putting the lid with Steam Slayer on. I then knocked the power down to about 30% and enjoyed...
I guess knowing the recipe might help. I'm attempting to brew Revvy's Leffe clone. I used BeerSmith to adjust the recipe for my equipment. The results of the adjustments are as follows:
10 lbs. 12.5 oz. Pilsner (81.6%)
1 lb. 1.6 oz. Munich Malt (8.3%)
5.8 oz. Biscuit Malt (2.8%)
3.9 oz...
I'm using a 15 gallon stainless steel pot, cycling the wort through a HERMS coil for the duration of the mash. The HERMS coil is mounted in another 15 gallon pot that I kept at a constant temperature (3 degrees warmer than the desired mash temperature) on the second brew attempt.
Here’s a quick update for anyone following along (also, thanks for all the tips and insight):
Saturday’s brew day really went well in retrospect. I had fermentation activity by early evening (maybe 6hours after pitching) and darn good fermentation up until yesterday morning. When I got home...
I definitely think this was the issue with my first batch. It was fermenting a long with no problem at all when it just hit a wall at 1.022 and stopped dead. I figured I had gotten a bunch of unfermentable sugars from my high mash temp.
It's going to be interesting to see where today's batch...
My grain is... well... a little old. It's probably about two and a half years old at this point; maybe even three. I bought a sack and put it in a Vittles Vault, expecting to use it in rather short order. Then we moved.
I had my doubts about it, but it looked, smelled, and tasted fine, so I...
