    This would be interesting, turn some brews around within a week or two finished product. Let me know if you try this and how it goes.

    Perks are shipping now, several people have gotten theirs. I have tracking number for mine, should be here next week. Rebate is still up in the air though.

    I do agree with all the acknowledgements that are required. I get sick of clicking yes all the time.

    PicoPaks - REUSABLE?

    If you have the option for another type of serving vessel leave their serving keg alone. I found it was a waste of time. I tried them a couple times and had trouble with keeping pressure and foaming. Moved to ball lock kegs and have not looked back.

    PicoPaks - REUSABLE?

    I had been using a stainless steel mesh in the bottom of my Pro/S for some time now. I started using the filter when paks started tearing open to keep the grain contained. It worked really well. I had thought about modifying it to resemble the Z2 screens and make it fit snuggly in the step...

    I have ran a couple brews through my Z2 with no issues. From what Ron as said on the Picobrewers Facebook group he has done like 60+ brews with no issues now.

    PicoPaks - REUSABLE?

    Utah Diesel makes a grain cage for the Zy, but not for the pico Pro/S/C. I am sure they will make whatever you want them to for a price..

    PicoPaks - REUSABLE?

    I have posted this on the facebook group some time back. It is a stainless box modeled after the picopak. I have used it on paks that have been questionable on if they will bust. It has worked well. I have also used it to BYOI through some other methods. I dont have a picture of it and it has...

    PicoPaks - REUSABLE?

    This has been a long time coming. Not quite what I thought the BYO would end up being but it works. I have my Z2 now so the Pro is almost not used at all. Once the Z picopak adapter comes out I probably wont use the Pro at all. Then again the stock of paks I have may be gone by then. LOL.

    So the Zs are shipping, several Z2s in the wild and now they announce BYO for the Pico S/Pro/C. Interesting turn of events there. I knew it was coming but I figured it would be announced after the Zs were finished shipping.

    Ran my first brew through the Z2 this weekend. Everything went smoothly and I had no issues. Numbers were close but not exact, I believe that is my fault since this is the first brew through the units. As I use it more I am sure I will get the numbers very close. Brew should have been 1.059, my...

    If you use a single vessel you would need to make sure the brews are running at the same time, otherwise you will have Hops running outside of the time frame they should be in. The larger step filter is an idea but you will need to control the flow of the liquid better. I am sure the single...

    BTW I have received tracking number for my Z2. Should be here in the next week. I will try and put at least a brew through it by then. Posts with pics or video will follow.

    Never thought of it that way but you are correct. I can see how it makes things easier with just a few setup recipes that cover the bulk of everything. I will start to redo my recipe database... thank you for pointing that out!

    Anyone have any updates on a Z2 Shipping?

    Picobrew Z

    So from what I am hearing from other locations, it looks like the Z2s will start shipping the end of this week at some point. We are all hoping that is accurate, Mine is scheduled to ship in 2 weeks so hopefully we will start to hear and see more about the larger units soon.... Not holding my...
