    How To: BrewPi LCD Add-On

    Anyway we could get a full recap posted somewhere with all the design changes and tweeks? I saw this project and I am very interested, been through about a dozen pages and I am getting a little lost as to what is going on in terms of changes being made. Also, those prebuilt boards look great...

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    It was a question. I literally have all the other parts around me and was eager to try it out. Saving money is saving money haha especially when I still need to get through college... I was planning on cannibalizing my STC temp controller anyway so if I can just use it all then why not...

    Noobe Lager Fermentation Question

    Geez thanks guys, turns out I never knew about this. Guess thats what makes me the noob huh? Well with the calculations shown, I have reached terminal! So I think I will let it sit for a day or two at 62 for the d-rest, then put it in secondary later this week and cold crash it for lagering...

    Noobe Lager Fermentation Question

    Thanks for the replies. I think I'll check the gravity later in the week and make a determination from there. I've been slowly ramping up the temp from 52 to about 58 now and I'll let it sit here for a few more days. If it's not a terminal gravity, I'll just let it sit for the week I'm gone then...

    Noobe Lager Fermentation Question

    So this will probably fall under that whole "patience is a virtue young padawan" but I will ask anyway. I am currently brewing my first lager, a "Bitburger" extract clone using the flowing recipe: http://byo.com/malt/item/1798-bitburger-premium-clone The only thing I changed is the yeast, I...

    Gathering water quality data

    Hello everyone, So I have 6 brews under my belt and have nailed down my process for brewing and fermentation. I have been very fortunate to not have any infected batches thus far (knock on wood) and have made some rather decent brews. It's time to step up my game. I already have a chest...

    DIY Tap for Mini Keg

    From my experience, I couldn't find a barb that small... Checked both home depot a d Lowe's. They didn't step down that far. It is a really large step down if you think about it...

    DIY Tap for Mini Keg

    I did some research because I saw that party tap system but all the reviews came out quite negative... So I figured why waste the money when I could just build one myself at a cheaper price? Also, audioa84, how did you step up your hose so that it fit the picnic line?

    DIY Tap for Mini Keg

    Sorry it's been so long guys! Basically, I found that instructable and used the parts that Revvy mentioned. The only part I changed was for my gas in line, which I chance to a .5" male threaded to .25" barbed. Otherwise, I attached my picnic faucet by just running the .25" OD tube into some .25"...

    DIY Tap for Mini Keg

    DIY Tap for Mini Keg

    Sorry, I mean the 5 L ones like what you would get Bitburger in. Most of the stuff that I find lead to broken links or dead fourms. I think I finally pieced it together, but help would be great.

    DIY Tap for Mini Keg

    Hey everyone! I'm looking for help in creating a tap for my mini keg (5 liter). I found some info on the net but a lot of the pics and links seem to be broken. I found an instructable as well as a YouTube video, but I guess I'm a bit confused on just how to assemble the tap. I was hoping to...
