You should be able to check for continuity with a multi-meter. If the thermostat failed open you would get no continuity. Check all the wires and the thermostat. My wires were already in pieces when I opened it up.

Could be a failed thermostat, you should be able to test it with a voltage meter. It's the little circular thing next to the heater. It's job is to turn off the heater when it gets too hot. Links to the part on Digikey are in BrewieForum thread.

Not sure if this has been mentioned before but the University of Wisconsin sequenced close to 200 strains of brewing yeasts and published their results. S-04, T-58 and WB-06 are in there. Study Now we just need access to a sequencer.

Since the cleaning cycles are all separate files you could just copy it from a 3.1.1 card if there is an issue in 3.1.2. I can't remember but I think they are editable routines. **Actually I just compared 3.1.2 and 3.1.1 and the Full Clean files are exactly the same. There must be a bug in the...

We are in the process of moving the FB group to a forum. The guides can be found here. http://www.brewieforum.net

I just use Win SCP to connect. 16gb Micro SD, speed shouldn't matter.

If anybody has the Brewie+ 3.1.2 beta I would love to get a copy to load on my machine. You can just strip out your serial from the config file to make a clean copy. I pulled my card and created a clean copy of 3.1.1 if anybody needs it. BTW You can SCP into the machine to see the whole file...

I calculated using the S04/T58/WB06:92%/5%/3% ratios. I did a 5 gallon batch. 1 full packet of S04(11.5g) .625g of T58 .375g of WB06. Total of 12.5g of dry yeast. I made a huge rookie mistake though. I stupidly poured all the yeasts in one bowl on the gram scale. On the WB-06 I tapped the...

I'll be testing the 600 micron for the first time this weekend. I'm using 65% efficiency in my calculations until I hit better numbers. I never liked the bags. I remember doing a bigger grain bill and finding dry malt balls in the bag. I bought a Stir Mate that I have been using with the...

I went to Tree House on Friday and Nate was busy brewing. The guy is a machine. I bought a few cases to compare to my first brew. I quickly realized I definitely over pitched the WB-06, as its notes easily take over. I did see giant bags of Weyermann grain on the shelves. Not sure if that is...

I am so glad I found this thread. I only keep my FB account for the Brewie group on there. I wish it was somewhere else... First off I really like my Brewie. I was an original Brewie backer, and wound up upgrading to a Brewie+ when they made the upgrade offer. I graduated from the Brewie Pads...
