I recently put an entire recent batch into the fridge and neglected to make sure that it was fully carbonated. After sampling a couple, they are not fully carbonated. I assumed they were since they were at room temp for 4 weeks but room temp is only in the mid-60's these days. They've been in...

Great ideas, but I don't see anything on the capper that's adjustable. There are no screws, everything is riveted together, including the bell.

Damn, guess the Colonna can create a dent/dimple as well: http://forum.northernbrewer.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=87257 https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/colonna-capper-corker-creating-indentations-92306/ https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/capper-choice-agata-vs-colonna-69923/#post726271 Looks...

I'm still dialing in my all-grain process so my efficiency has varied quite a bit. I'd like to use beeralchemy to adjust my gravity pre-boil so I end up hitting my target OG post-boil. I want to see how much malt extract I need to have if I am under or how much water to add if I'm over, in...
