I can't because the probe always reads 7.03. When I try calibrating it using 4.01, my MW102 gives me Ec error code, which is wrong calibration solution, because the probe is always reading 7.03

My old probe for my MW-102 died. Bought a new SE220. Tried testing it out this morning but it reads nothing but 7.03 no matter what I test. If I put it in 4.01 solution, it reads Ec, telling me the solution is not correct. If I put it in my tap water, it reads 7.03 as well. Is there...

Typically, 5.4 is a great middle ground for beta and alpha. For higher gel temp grains (which I've been finding a lot lately with Weyermann), a higher mash pH might help with attenuation, 5.5 to 5.6. There are a couple things I'd change in the recipe... 1) I'd skip carapils. Go pils and...

Esters and clove will be from the acid rest. Banana will come from under pitching your yeast. No starter, one packet right in. Ferment high 60s

Are you referring to their warm lager fermentation? If so, I would not recommend this for any lager. This does not produce the same type of lager that cold fermentation does. The example I always use is, I find the warm lager fermentation technique to produce a blonde ale instead of a...

I think you have it all backwards. You are blaming the low oxygen guys for the thread turning this way simply because low oxygen was mentioned. I know this is cliche but that is like blaming the woman for being raped because she was wearing a bikini. When did it turn negative? When Bilsch...

Yup that's it. From my recollection, it looked just like an American Bud bottle. I was way off. I just looked it up on Untapp'd. That's too bad. I was really hoping they brewed that beer just for Germany and it really tasted that much better than American Bud. Either way, it was still a...

My brother in law works for a Germany based company and goes about once a year. He brought back a Bud from one of his trips. I wish that was what they made from Americans. It was such a great beer

You can get kegs of commercial beer for your kegerator Let's look at this logically... 7.75 gallon keg of Lagunitas IPA is $116, 5 gallons would be about $75. Brewing that at home would cost about $35. That is a 215% more to buy commercial. 5 gallons of vodka with seltzer water would take...

There's no reason to ferment beer. You can go buy a 6 pack and pour a pint in your glass

That makes sense. Or maybe even just two additions. Half at pitch and half around 1.020 since it seems a lot of people stale out there. I normally don't rehydrate dry yeast so I was going to skip go-ferm and go with wyeast nutrient and direct pitch. I've never used wine or champagne yeast so...

So if I'm using this correctly, for 5 gallons of 1.036 seltzer using Fermaid O and EC-1118, I'd need 5 grams of yeast 1.7 grams of Fermaid O each at 24, 48 and 72 hours after pitch then when gravity gets to 1.024. Would I still use some Wyeast beer nutrient at pitch? And would you still...

I'd put money on it being oxygen. I was having a very similar issue with both AG and extract. Started looking into low oxygen and my first AG batch with those processes was 100 times better. Been doing that for over 2 years now and my beers have never been better. I recently made an extract...

Seasonal influenza caused flu has an R value of 1.3, which is how many people catch the virus from 1 single infected person. Covid19 R value is close to 3. It is much more contagious. Symptoms also may not show for up to 2 weeks after being infected where as flu symptoms come on very quickly...

From the Draught Beer Quality Manual, there are four independent factors that determine cleaning effectiveness. Time, temp, mechanical and chemical actions. Cleaning should always include all four factors. If you can't, you will need to increase the other 3 factors to make up for the missing...

Just measured mine doing 3 taps in line. I got exactly half gallon per minute.

Bringing back an old thread. I'm finishing up a 6 month long 8 tap keezer build and I'm thinking about going this way. I was running 3 kegs in line and the flow was super slow. I'd probably have to run it for 45 minutes or more to get the proper cleaning. What kind of flow are you seeing...

Yeah no state income tax in FL but he still pays tax in all the other states he plays. He's probably saving 2% of his salary by moving to FL. It isn't about the money. It is about having more control and being without BB.

Florida would have been the last place I thought he would want to be but here we are. Very confused about this signing. Maybe the only team willing to give him the money he wants and he just really wants to play without BB??

Most of my ales are right around the same schedule but I've never seen them go that crazy. Though most ales I just use us-05 and I don't aerate, which may be an issue. Even though fermentis says their yeast don't need added oxygen, not using oxygen for us means sulfites are still in the beer...
