So... It's a good thing I bought the Arduino UNO R3 in 2017!

@LBussy Any "known" issues using the Arduino UNO R4 WiFi? https://store.arduino.cc/collections/boards-modules/products/uno-r4-wifi

Thanks @matt_m . Sounds like I should save that $19 while I can.. lol

I'm a little smarter than that. :P I go straight to the source and am not a "clicker"... Not to mention, I don't see too many ad's in the first place due to all the additional security I have on my systems. (uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, NextDNS etc..) But back to my question, does anyone...

Does anyone have any insight into a Black Friday deal for the EasyDens? Meaning, has anyone seen them do this every year? I've read that they have done it but have no idea if its a regular happening. Its (the Beer Combo) on sale for a whole $19 less than normal right now. My trigger finger...

Can you give be an example of what you mean by "wago connector"? Is this an alternate for the "Euro Style" wire connector blocks?

I have to say that this stuff makes my head hurt. Probably why I've just now pulled out the hardware I bought in 2017 :p My trusty STC-1000 temp controller has worked for me well. But, I think I'm going to trudge forward now. Wish me luck!

Hey folks... I'm finally dusting off and unboxing my RaspberryPi 3 that I bought in 2017 with intentions of building a BrewPi. Seems a lot has changed over the last 7 years. Any suggestions on how I pick back up on this? Can you save me hours of thread sorting and such by pointing me to...

I have a Milwaukee MA871(Digital Brix Refractometer). But its not very reliable during fermentation, very inconsistent. I'm thinking this may have something to do with the alcohol evaporating from the sample during the measurement. But I don't really know why and have stopped using it. I went...

So. y'all aren't doing a very good job of talking me out of buying this thing... ;)

I'd really like to know more about this. Isn't the SmartRef just another digital brix refractometer? How is it different than the Milwaukee?

One of the reasons I haven't already bought one is of possible Black Friday discounts. I think someone on this forum mentions that they got theirs at a Black Friday discounted price. There's no guarantee that this will happen but I'm thinking it could be worth waiting for. At least waiting...

I read somewhere on this forum that the Tilt Pro still has connectivity range issues that require the repeater. Can anyone comment on this? If I bought a Tilt Pro, it would be inside my Spike CF10 thats sitting inside an upright freezer I use as a fermentation chamber. (Not a glycol guy...

How long have you had yours? I don't think I've seen anyone say they didn't like it. But I'm wondering if that's stood the test of time. I can buy a few good refractometers for the price of an EasyDens. I like that it would give me a more confirmed brix/SG or Plato (I don't use Plato...

I've been considering picking up an EasyDens. And I've read mostly positive things from this forum but most are a little old. I've used a normal brix refractometer for years and have had great results. And I've even found the resulting calculations that are needed when alcohol is present to...

Can anyone tell me the overall height of this thing including a 4" to 3" TC adapter? Also, is it really worth getting one of there as opposed to just dumping hops in the top port when there a few gravity points left until FG? FWIW, I don't brew NEIPA's but I do brew a lot of other dry-hopped...

I hadn't considered just pressurizing the sealed CF10 instead of leaving the CO2 attached and under pressure. According to Spike Brewing, the CF10 is rated for a working pressure of 15 psi. So I could pressurize to say ~8-10 psi, disconnect the gas and start the cold crash. This would...

Hey HBT! I recently picked up a Spike All-In-One PRV for my CF10. I'm wanting to use it during a cold crash with a CO2 bottle attached so that it can provide gas during this process with the fermenter sealed off. I don't use glycol so my conical sits inside an upright freezer as a...

Average brew size is ~12G. Range is 6 - 17. I always brew more than goes into the keg to account for losses whether its from trub left behind in the kettle to losses from dumping yeast from the conical!

I have an offset stick-burner in addition to my Pit-Boss pellet grill. The quality of the finished meat is waayyy better off the stick-burner but you really have to commit to tending a ~12-18 hour smoke for a brisket or pork butt. Quality of the finished product aside, its way easier to fill...
