    Hello All, Just finished my new kegerator and intend to install RaspberryPints in the near future (just want to do some more research on the flow meters and decide if some of the cheaper options are worth it) Quick question: would it be possible to use a table as a display instead of a...

    Someone has to make a corny keg dip tube thermowell

    Are you planing to use it for fermenting or for kegging? I use my kegs to ferment and got myself one of those keg tops with a hole drilled into it and a bung. I have a 16 in and 12 in thermowell that I put through the bung, into the keg. I then use a gas out post with tubing into some sanitizer...

    Lager Stalled at 1.025

    Thanks for the reply. Totally forgot to think about the mash temp. Based my recipe off of Brewing Classic Styles so I figured it would be safe. Do you think adding amylase enzyme or pumping over to secondary and adding some champagne yeast could help me out?

    Hop Bombs

    I dont think this would be an issue at all. One solution to prevent getting as much hops into your fermenter is to start putting your hop addition into a muslin bag or some kind of strainer bag. If the yeast is fermenting, then I would say you dont have a problem. There are many people that will...

    Will Yeast Capture and Step Up

    So I decided to give this whole wild yeast capturing thing a try. I went back into the woods and found some wild raspberries that I plucked and put into some wort and let sit for a week. I got a nice layer of some creamy looking stuff that looked very much like yeast. So I decided to stick it...

    Overnight mashing in a pot

    What is the purpose of mashing this long? Only time I have heard of someone trying to mash that long would be for souring a mash. I mean its even debatable if a full hour mash is necessary. In terms of holding temp, no, it will not hold it for 8 hours. I cant tell you how much it will drop...

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    I will get a picture up after work. I read that I could try to install a bootloader and get it working, but then I noticed I need another board to do it. I just decided it wasn't worth the time or effort to source out another board and hope it works when I could return this one and by an...
