Anyone else having problems with app resetting itself? Mine keeps resetting to the first brew I ever put in the thing.....

In honesty, this one on Amazon is so cheap, it is what I have and with our water temp, it works great. Not sure if the hassle of build is worth it,. http://amzn.to/2hzT7Hh

Big crush of mine too. She will be missed. RIP Prince Leia.

So what is the secret to shipping beers? Since I am sending you from Georgia, will be a trick finding something you can't get down there....

You are just lucky you beat me by less than half a point last week...... Victory would have been mine..... hahahahahahah Good job.

Got it. That makes the most sense.

One other question, as I have never done a sparge before, what temp is the sparge water supposed to be?

Thanks all. My grain bill is 23.5 and 6 ounces of hops. Beersmith is telling me with my equipment profile and that grain bill I need 14.2 I do have a second kettle 12.5 gallons. That is what I was thinking of using for the dunk sparge.

Question: I am doing my first 10 gallon batch. I have a 16 gallon kettle, Beersmith says my total mash with grains will 15.92. That is too close to the top for my comfort level. Thinking of doing a dunk sparge, and I have never done one. Volume of water for the mash is supposed to be 14.12...

No worries, it's a fermentable. Although, you do have to add it in Beersmith. :)

I live in Atlanta, we have some humidity. I brew in my basement without a hood. But, like 303Dan, I have a fan pushing the air from my kettle to another box fan in my window pushing the air outside. I have had no problem with condensation. Like most people in Atlanta I have a dehumidifier in...

Are you stirring your grains during mash? I stir my grains every 15 minutes during the mash.

You don't have to crush by hand, look at my post two or three above with the mill in the bucket.

The Mill in a Bucket idea goes to Mike of Wilser Bags. He has a whole thread on the subject, you can find it here https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showpost.php?p=1308996&postcount=144

It is screwed in. Yes, the mill stays in place when you dump out the grain. I have a second bucket that I pour the grain into after grinding. A socket fits perfectly on the handle post and I use a power drill. Goes through 15+ lbs of grain in less than 2 minutes. The first time I used it...

You seriously need to go for the Corona Mill in the bucket like many have suggested. So easy to do and fairly cheap. $20-$30 on Amazon http://amzn.to/2hVwXM3

Use Beersmith. It is worth the $25 investment. You can set up your system in the equipment profiles.

Hey, I am looking to buy a 525ss. I have three want to add a fourth. Let me know if you have one for sale.

Since I now have this recipe in Beersmith, might have to due this one next, I am on a Belgian kick right now....
