I've been doing 1318 at a start of 72 with an immediate cool down to 65. It never has off flavors, and creates the typical esters with this yeast which are subtle. I have held at 65 until kegging and also ramped it back up to 72 after a few days to "finish it off" and can tell no difference...

I'd like to thank a lot of you in this thread. My last batch of London Ale III fermented NEIPA didn't have hop burn once it was carbonated. 10 days in the fermenter, 24 hours of cold, pressurized dry hopping, and 4 days of carbonation. One of the best batches I've done. Keeping hop additions...

and by "hazy" I'd say "barely." That's cleared up quite a bit.

Does this apply to flaked vs. malted oats as well?

Galaxy is back in stock at Yakima Valley. 155 pounders available right now

Do you have the report interval adjusted in the web interface? I've had issues with mine where it reports out 0 degrees but it's usually fixed with reboots of the device.

My apologies- I just rechecked and I had a severe brain fart- it's 4.144V. IIRC I think the ideal charged voltage is 4.2v on the battery. I may have broken the gyro somehow. I'm recharging it as the krausen hasn't formed yet so at least I can see if it's a voltage issue. and before I gum up...

I'm glad I asked. I thought it seemed low. That's probably my issue.

has anyone had issues where their device starts to not report tilt? I've brewed a few times successfully with my iSpindel, but now it appears to not report the angle (it reports 0 degrees). I did manage to plug in the Wemos D1 to my USB charger before properly connecting it to the USB...

Something went south on my build. I can no longer view the portal to control it. Fermentrack shows up on my router client list but I can't see anything when I navigate to its ip address. The temp proves work fine too. And resetting the unit does nothing. Any ideas what went wrong? I've got a...

that picture makes me so damn happy. What a set up!

Your wort looks dark. And your boil looked intense. In addition to pbtimmons suggestions, try to keep a rolling boil. Don't rip it full throttle- heat can burn it up and darken your wort. I actually used bottled spring water from the grocery store on my NEIPAs. It hasn't failed me yet.

I try to keep dryhopping "entries" into the fermentation vessel to a minimum. I'll dry hop after 4-5 days when the fermentation has slowed. Using 1318, this is typically after 4 days at 67F, then I slowly raise the temp to 70 over the next 3 days. The way I see it- if active fermentation is...

care to elaborate?

After all of my n00b mistakes, I've finally gotten a build going with a iSpindel device calibrated and communicating. Beyond basic common sense like "if you're flashing something through the Raspberry pi- you need it connected to the raspberry pi via usb" sort of stuff, the only things that...

good question- I'll try different combinations of ports AND probes and see what's up. it did end up being a bad probe. I'll re-solder it to the 3.5mm lines I'm using but I have a feeling it's just a faulty sensor.

is it possible to have three temperature probes on the one-wire bus? I've got three set up on the pin, and for some reason when I have 3 probes plugged in the one-wire bus crashes. I've verified that the probes are wired properly so I know it's not my soldering work with the sensors themselves.

Good question. They are thermal well probes with black white and red wires. I may take one apart to see if the VCC is grounded. This would reset the controller I'd think

I've been trying to debug my ds18b20 set up- I have the PCBA with the RJ-11 connector. For reasons unknown to me, the DS18b20's aren't showing up on the controller. I've chased everything through the wiring with a voltmeter, and have found that D6 on my wemos is outputting 3.3v. I pulled the...
