7143 + 5 gallons tasty IPA = 7148

I have never had the gaskets stretch on me. Pics may help us diagnose the problem.

+5 gal Oatmeal Stout (5/28/18) +5 gal Session IPA. (6/17/18) = 5544.5 gallons

I aerate immediately before pitching, mostly because I don't want yeast getting in the diffusion stone and finding its way to future batches. I do sanitize the wand and stone before use but why take chances?

+1 on the Speidels. In the past I have used Better Bottle, Big Mouth Bubbler, glass, buckets, and most recently SS BrewBucket. While I like the BrewBucket the valve is finicky and prone to leaks, as is the weldless thermowell. The Speidels are reasonably priced, durable, super easy to...

3762 + 6 gallons Session APA "jam Session" ==== 3768

The Hops Boss for Brew Boss systems is similar to OP's design. It's got a chute that drops the hops into the spider. Seems to work completely off gravity. Have not heard about problems sticking, but do not recall any reviews specifically on this accessory...

I tried reversing the supply wires to no avail, and asked williams support. Was told it cant be reversed, that it is hard wired for their mill. Perhaps it is the wires between the switch and the motor that need to be reversed? At any rate, the bottom mount provided a more elegant solution so...

Finally pulled the trigger and purchased the Williams Brewing mill motorizing kit. No regrets, but my setup took a bit more work than anticipated. The motor only turns clockwise, and my mill only turns counter-clockwise with no way to reverse the drive roller. So I was going to buy a new mill...

2765 + 5 gal Belgian Tripel = 2770

5 gallons session IPA "Dank obSession" = 2185

Holy Sprits... Man, verses, beer...

During the cooling cycle the fridge already has a fan that should create decent air movement. But a small fan certainly helps, especially if you have a heater in the chamber. I use a PC fan rigged up in a plastic box that sits on the shelf next to the fermenter. There are no hard and fast...

For basic top freezer models with separate temp controls for Freezer and Refrigerator, my understanding is that the Fridge setting controls the thermostat, and the Freezer setting controls a damper that determines how much of the cold air moves from freezer to fridge when the compressor/fan are...

zoro.com also a good source

Toobly, I think the point is to use the calculators to determine the best mineral content of your mash water to achieve acceptable mash ph. Calculate additions based on mash volume and sparge volume if sparging. After mash and boil the mineral concentration of your wort will be different...

Gas going in to the keg should stop once the keg pressurizes fully. If you still hear hissing then you likely have a leak somewhere, but most of my leaks have been so small you can't hear them. Check the o-ring on the keg post, and make sure it is the right one for your posts. Are all of...

+1 for star-san solution in the airlock and blow off tank, sometimes Vodka in the airlock.

Thanks alexlark. I have tried that reflashing the arduino and resetting the EEPROM several times to no avail. Everything seems to be functioning otherwise. The only log file showing errors is Fermentrack (Web Application), with many errors that seem to trace back to 'query.py'. I'll see...

Yes, I tried that, but all of the fields remain blank even after the reset. To change one setting I have to place values in every field in order to submit the changes.
