    Too high of a pressure?

    Just brewed my first lager over the weekend, which will hopefully come out as a good clone of Korbinian. It yields an OG of 1.078, calls for two packages of 34/70, and fermenting at 65°F under 15 psi for 14 days. I goofed setting my spunding valve, and by Monday morning the pressure was off...

    How Many Gallons Brewed in 2023

    2585.5 + 5.5 gal Korbinian clone (thanks to @kadozen for the recipe) = 2591.

    How long is your brew day?

    I figure a little under 4 hours, doing ~5-gal batches eBIAB on a system from brewhardware.com. Weigh out and mill the grains while the water is heating, which works out just about right time-wise (a 5.5KW heating element makes quick work of ~8 gal of water). I do usually leave the spent grain...

    I broke a lot of rules

    See no-chill, BIAB, and no-boil, just to name a few off the top of my head.

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    Flashed 1.3.0B2 this morning, I'll see how it goes. I never did have the problem of loss of data on 1.1.1A7 (I think that's the last version I was using), but I also set up a daily cron job to download the config files in case the data did get lost. Is this expected to have MQTT working?

    I broke a lot of rules

    Nonsense. Even if you discount your time (it is a hobby, after all), it costs money to brew beer, whether or not it comes out. And if a batch is ruined (e.g., infected), pouring $50 down the drain is a consequence in my book. Now, if it just doesn't come out quite the way I hoped, that's a...

    Tweaking kit advice please

    I assume you meant 250, 250, and 500 grams there, not milligrams.

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    Which breakout board? The six-way one which I designed is intended to use JST-XH connectors. I can't speak for the three-way board.

    Chilling wrap/jacket? Does this exist?

    So someone had thought of it before--makes sense. I'll have to check it out. I already have an Inkbird and a pump, so shouldn't need to add anything else.

    Chilling wrap/jacket? Does this exist?

    I was watching a review of the Brewbuilt X2 jacketed conical on YouTube the other day when I had a thought: Sure, a jacketed conical is the bee's knees, but they're pricey, and it isn't something you can incrementally upgrade to (i.e., it isn't a feature you can add on to a fermenter you already...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    I mean, sure, I'd rather not have to do it, but I'd downloaded them anyway (did you intend that people be able to just browse to /appconfig.json? Because you can--which makes it convenient to download that and flowconfig), and it's easy enough to get the necessary information out of it for this...

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    Just flashed to Alpha 7. Nice to see there's a link to /fs/ on the About page. Not so nice to see this when trying to upload the config files: Guess it's time to reenter manually. Fortunately, JSON isn't hard to read, and it isn't all that much to reenter.

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    It isn't (so I'll look forward to the next release), but I'm just using the KegCop display for now rather than rPints.

    ...and the MQTT password, and credentials for any other services you're publishing to. But agree that:

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    If you're concerned about security, "it uses telnet" should be pretty low on your list of concerns, given you can browse to kegcop.local/appconfig.json and download it--passwords and all--with no authentication.

    Keg Cop: Keg Monitoring and Control

    Somehow I'd missed that possibility earlier--that makes checking the logs a lot easier.
