Made my first two beers in 1979 with kits. One was John Bull, one was Boots (Americans- Boots is a large drug store chain) own brand I think. They were horrible, disgusting. Made my next couple with malt extract and hops from the local homebrew shop. Better, but I didn't like the malt extract...

This has happened to me as well, only been using fermentrack a couple of weeks. I have two home-made controllers running two fridges. Usually happens when I adjust or power down a controller, the other loses connection and the only way to get it to work again is to re-flash the board. I put it...

Filled 41 half-litre bottles with Czech style lager. Got everything ready for brewing an Altbier tomorrow.

I have made invert a couple of times but I decided it was more effort than it was worth. It's much easier, and works reasonably well, to make an approximation with mixes of light brown, dark brown and granulated sugar. It isn't inverted but the yeast doesn't mind. If you do want it inverted it's...

Yes, I should think that would work well. I should see if I can find any of that for another time. I've used treacle a couple of times, once overdone it and made something totally undrinkable 🤮 I'd usually use dark muscovado but I've used it a lot recently so I felt like I wanted to leave it out.

Meh! Annoying! Should send them a strongly worded missive!

Also, apparently new on the market according to an email off PiHut, an ESP32-C6 Mini Development Board. https://thepihut.com/products/esp32-c6-mini-development-board?mc_cid=a9abdf7f5f

Looks great. Should be a better prospect for pressure fermenting if nothing else. Will definitely have a go when you finalise the PCB.

Bit late but thought I'd better make a beer for Christmas/winter. Brewing this tomorrow. The plan is to ferment it out, cold crash a few days, transfer to secondary, add some oak chips, leave at cellar temp (approx 13C) until mid-December, bottle. Hoping the oak chips and a bit of oxygenation...

I feel your pain. I live in Scottish Islands so it is for me as well. Most of the suppliers send to the mainland without charge if you spend enough (£65/£100, depending on supplier & delivery company) but the same parcel would cost me £15 - £20 for delivery, which adds quite a bit to the cost/Kg...

Includes tax, which I understand isnt necessarily the case in US. Malt Miller are pretty pricey too (not intended as a criticism, they're value for money - freshness, packaging). I paid £2.30/Kg, rather than their £2.64. By my calculations $1.33/lb 😁

Haha. Thought it would be easy. You next, almost playing on your own.

I almost always fail this. It hasn't hurt me yet.
