    Off flavour? Woody, oak flavour in beer

    Damn I have to add oak chips for that... verily interesting problem. Everything sounds right. FWIW I have never used Canadian 6 row. I would try to limit my variables. If it were me I would try not sparging next time. The beer will be just fine, and it will limit a big variable. GL...

    Not sure what Brewie says but PBW and rubber gaskets and plastic pieces are not good bed mates.

    Mash tun size vs grain

    Thanks, I tried it before and it said I could use 50# o grain. So I was not sure. But this actually is consistent with another source. So it must be true! Lol. Thanks for the quick reply

    Mash tun size vs grain

    ok my brain is tired. Between grain absorption, water volume within the grain and the grain volume itself my brain is tired. Did I just say that? Ok here is my word math problem for those of you who like them. Assuming all the above plays into it. I have a 20 gal tun arriving. I want...

    .Being disappointed and complaining like an adult is fine. I like both of your last two posts, they were excellent, well stated and useful. It’s the posters who lash out like petulant entitled children who feel they been slighted or have an axe to grind that doesn’t add anything here. But I’m...

    I would expect so. It would be nice to hear the incremental changes, but it’s not a deal breaker for me.

    Well I can’t disagree with anything you have said. Sorry bout my post. There is just so much entitled bitching going on here I am growing weary and took it out on your post. That said I didn’t read your “let you be the judge” comments to be a neutral as you claim. But that was my...

    Seriously who gives a shizzle. My guess is they want to deliver a quality product faster than you want to receive it. Sheesh.

    Haha, there are a few idiots on this thread that apparently you are responding to. I am just guessing because I have ignored their content as to why everything PICO is a national disaster and why they are maybe the worst kickstarter that ever existed; no matter what they do.. Simply said it is...

    Good on you for thinking things through. . The Z is, from the onset, about automation. If full automation is not at the top of your list there are many other directions to go and all with more flexibility. . The WiFi issue can be a pain if you have a weak signal. I do, and yet it has never...

    My beliefs on how it appears to work. YMMV. I think what you ended up doing is exactly what would happen if Kickstarter people gave long lead time dates for production. Many Kickstarter followers are looking for something new and unique and will (and do) wait seemingly forever. Many people...

    And that is why they, and most every Kickstarter, give ‘optimistic’ timelines.

    Won’t be perfect, but no reason it should be very close for Home brew purposes.

    Yuk. No guarantees here just some thoughts on limiting the variables. . -You can check the filter plugs by putting the step filter in the sink and filling it up until they are covered. Leaks will be apparent. . -run water mash to eliminate the possibility of a plugged mash and leaking drain...

    Funny but I am looking forward to my new Z even tho, outside of self updating firmware and a step filter without holes, the current one works perfectly for me. (Edit, but I really dont like the WiFi requirement) With the Z I doubt my final product will be any better. I guess it is similar to...

    I suspect that, as with others who were banned that blabber on here, there was much said offline with customer service. Based on what I have read here, it all starts to make sense. Apparently, mis-information, spreading falsehoods, and lashing out is becoming the new norm of entertainment...

    Doubt it. But being a belligerent bully or cursing and swearing at customer service reps will.

    I understand an internet connection to transfer rfid codes, recipes etc, but the machines requiring the constant connection to run is problematic.
