    That was it! I'm a Substation Electrian, I got a handle on hardware side stuff, but all the software code side is new. Thanks!

    [Version 2 Release] RaspberryPints - Digital Taplist Solution

    Trying to edit Style.css file to accommodate a square image for tap number (I dont know if this is even right) and I cannot chmod file permissions to write. What am I missing or better yet, how have some of you gone about making changes to RaspberryPints? Thanks!

    CraftBeerPi - Raspberry Pi Software

    I just did an install of CBPi on RPi 3 Buster. I cant access the GUI, is this because I also have RasperryPints installed? I'm probably doing something dumb, brand new to RPi. Thanks.

    Took 3rd for the People's Choice (also 3rd BOS, 1st in 28A). Once again, good call, thanks.

    Thanks for the voice of reason, going for the glory.

    Filling Growler from Bottles

    I already know this seems like a situation nobody would encounter, hear me out. I have a bottled Brett Stout that I entered in a comp and it scored high enough that I was invited to a People's Choice Round where attendees will judge the beer. You're supposed to bring 2-4 growlers. All my beer...

    Is a 90 min boil neccessary with only 5.5lbs of Pilsner malt

    Do the 90 minute. Make the best beer you can, I would rather sacrifice the extra 30 min than risk cream corn in a beer that has weeks of investment. Then again, for learning sake, drop down to 60 min and you may find that its all good.

    Gravity after adding honey

    I made an addition of red wine grape-must in a saison once (here). My not-so-educated idea was to take SG reading right before the addition and then again 12-24 hrs after (allow it to disperse) and calculate the delta between the two. I figured (and gravity readings showed) grape-must to be...

    blonde ale recipe (feedback)

    Looks pretty standard for a Blonde. Sidenote: You may have already heard this, when brewing a light extract beer, add 2/3 of the DME late, even at flameout. You may get more noticeable bitterness, but not so much to be out of style. The main thing you gain is reduced chance of scorching...

    Starsan back flow onto hops while dryhopping

    I guess I should've asked if you had more homegrown. I assumed, I still have a freezer full. Agreed on not adding more hops, I wouldn't use commercial if I was trying to showcase the fruits of my labor. Thanks for checking out the site, figure I should share my f-ups with someone! Good luck yo.

    Starsan back flow onto hops while dryhopping

    Lots of people have gotten Star San into their beer (like me) with no problems, it can actually turn into a benefit in fermentation, becoming food for the yeast. But it sounds like you're concerned about the reaction to hops. I can't imagine Star San affecting aroma noticeably, possibly AA...

    Mixed Cultures - 1 Gallon Test Batches

    Sounds like a solid plan. I'm pretty sure I'll opt for drinking over some head retention this time around, still working on that patience thing. Thanks again, let ya know how it all shakes out!
