    Just wondering who is behind the bridge financing. ZVentures or any InBev companies? 🤔

    I wonder if one has to buy the whole lot. Like all the pico brew machines or you can bid on 1 or 2. With a way to brew without the their servers, I still like my S unit for a better manual brew.

    What to chose in 2020

    Thanks, looks good on paper. I would like to see a comparison with a Anvil Foundry. For new brewers, some automation to and monitoring like the BrewFather could be a good thing. For someone who want to learn manual brewing from the start, those are great. I would consider for myself for sure.

    What to chose in 2020

    Ah yes... BrewTools. Does this allow upload from Brewfather now? I recall there were talks about this. I love the fact they can replace any part without having to replace the whole thing. Thinking of this, the 150L model would be a great option for me as well. Thanks, forgot about these guys. I...

    I guess that would be correct. Easy through automation? Assuming the recipe you input is correct that is. Garbage in, garbage out.

    What to chose in 2020

    I am using a PicoBrew and traditional Ss brew tech 3 vessel types. The picobrew draw lots of attention because of the picopacks. The concept of inserting ingredients then press a button is attractive to friends/relatives and folks i know. I can’t be there to brew for them. I could teach some...

    Can a manual brew be adjusted for 1 gal? I'm wondering if there's an easy way for a newbie to use a Pico, post bankruptcy, using manual brew method, with online 1 Gal recipe packs. Would filling the step filter with the adjusted amount of water be sufficient?

    What to chose in 2020

    I have friends asking what I would recommend today, to get, that is as automated as possible, for all grain brewing. Batch size of 5 Gal. Newbies, so they would get my help, but to help them, they would need a way to program it for the proper mash schedule. Uploading of recipes is the preferred...

    well, some of the parts can be sourced. But one would have to understand the machine, and be willing to do the repair. I mean, it's possible, but not for everyone. If you had the machine since the kickstarter days, maybe you won't mind. But I get it if someone is pissed because they just got it...

    Yeah... AbInBev and they will only sell you CoorsLite picoPaks. I can buy these at WalMart... 5 Gallons of distilled water. Same thing. Well, crossing fingers someone picks up the company but makes minimal changes. If I can only do manual brews is fine, but I prefer keep the option of paks. I...

    Yeast life and aging

    Thank you. I will experiment with small batches.

    Yeast life and aging

    Providing that I start the fermentation in ideal conditions. If I were to keep feeding the yeast when activity is decreasing, could I feed it with fermentable sugars indefinitely ? How about priming sugar? Also, how does the yeast affect the taste when aging? Say I keep a fermenting vessel with...

    I'll believe it when I see it. I prefer knowing first hand.... unless you feel like sharing.

    Downloaded. Thx, I'll review and give it a try. And Bill is an ex-Misocroft guy, so M$ Azure ain't a surprise.

    is the dump available somewhere like pastebin github or elsewhere? He can obfuscate the UUIDs, as long as we know the field length. I could work on a fake server locally someone could run and track progress. Thinking of raspberry pi. A zero W, creates a Wi-Fi hotspot and redirects onto itself...

    Ahhh.... yeah,, I sent a whole bunch of email addresses their way then never heard back. I know my friends get the annoying ads. Don't know what happened there, but no surprise in light of the efforts to getting bought. On a side note, I wonder how the others are doing if PicoBrew, the most...

    Does the pico verify the cert signer? If not, a self signed cert could solve this.
