It comes with new functionalities like mash schedule memory (10) and network connectivity. The software will be upgradable by the user. - Niels

Wow, those look sexy! I'm waiting for the SS Brewtech ones to become available in Europe. - Niels

Thanks! It looks like Jaycar stuff isn't easily available in Europe, so I've ordered some similar (less sexy) indicators. - Niels

Very neat build! Are these LEDs 240VAC? If so, can you tell me a part number or a reference? I would like to add these to my BrewPi build... :mug: - Niels

Thanks you all for the replies. I'm sorry to be late responding but I was busy brewing ;) Well, I was almost sure that I had it correct, but I just wanted confirmation. Brewing in the US is done a bit different than here, so I wouldn't be suprised that the way a recipe is stated is a bit...

This is a real n00b question, but I struggle with the recipes in BYO magazine. It might be the fact that English isn't my native language, but I'm not sure how to interpret the hop times given in the BYO recipes. E.g. boil time is 90 minutes and 2 hops are listed. One with 60 min and one...
