Oops. Had the incorrect website for info. Updated link getvessi.com

Decided to post up my Vessi system to see if any interest out there. Works great but I’m too heavily invested in my Ss chronicals/glycol setup to get enough use out of it. Since owning it I’ve replaced most lines and added a bigger CO2 tank. For those not familiar with Vessi, it’s a fully...

I like this idea. learn a new tip every day on this forum !!

I do BIAB (well really the COFI basket in a brew boss) and usually add 1 to 2 handfuls of rice hulls with wheat recipes. The most I’ve done is about a 30% wheat recipe and did an extra handful of hulls in that one. I don’t recall adjusting the water amount on any of my recipes for them. 3...

Just got this as a birthday gift. Hoping it’s as good as the first one

Read this one awhile back and really enjoyed. Actually just watched the Netflix version of it last night. good movie, but like just about all book adaptions it barely scratches the surface of the read. Enjoy it!!

don't dump it. give a few weeks to let that grassy/burn fade. typically my IPAs take 3 to 4 weeks (sometimes longer) to hit their peak in the keg. There may be some IPAs that the "drink fresh" holds true, but one of my favorite recipes which is heavily dry hopped doesn't hit it's stride until...

Not to be obtuse, but how do i calibrate my hydrometer? I get that i can read it how I want/consistently once i check it in distilled water, but unaware how to calibrate it like i can with my refractometer. Or is the "calibration" with the hydrometer, really just learning how to properly read...

Thank you for this. This is exactly where my thinking came from as this exact info was on my first hydrometer many years (hydros) ago and the basis for why I’ve been reading it like that since. My latest hydro has no info other than the graduation lines, so maybe it’s not the same. I guess the...

This was an incredibly detailed and produced post. Thank you @IslandLizard

Also, i know it's not scientific at all but my Tilt came in at 1.053 (i don't really use my Tilt readings for anything other than to watch the gravity drop for things like when to dry hop, diacetyl rest, etc.) One other data point - my refractometer read 1.050 from a sample pulled from that...

thank you for readings. so i've heard the meniscus mentioned a lot in other interpretations of reading volume. when i look at that pic, i see a meniscus that goes up in the middle onto the hydrometer, so reading from the meniscus is where i interpreted the 1.051 (maybe 1.052). is that not...

I have struggled with reading a hydrometer correctly since starting this hobby, and i'm sure there are even varying opinions on how to read it correctly. I know in the end it really doesn't matter as long as i use the same reading indicator at beginning & end, but unfortunately i was raised by...

I was homebrewing for about 2 years before i really even started liking IPAs. I was introduced to NEIPAs by a friend on a trip @ Treehouse which are good, but too me sometimes push too far with the overpowering late additions/dry hops. I really enjoy both styles of bitter IPAs & juicy NEIPAs...

one thing i did to better educate me was to continually weigh my tank (back when i was using a 5lb-er it was easier using my grain scale). - weigh it when i got it filled, then i know what it should be when "full" - weigh it before and after purging a full star san'd keg so i knew how much...

i;ve got a similar 6 tap setup, and average about 14 months with a 20lb tank. i have no knowledge if this is good or bad. i use it primarily for the tap kegs and have another 5lb tank for other non-tap related uses.

Please shoot me a code if still available. Have a lot of inkbird products and was just looking at a fermwrap. Thx

Thanks Inkbird - mine got delivered yesterday and excited to try it out this weekend sealing up some hop bags.

I’d love to get one if not too late. I’ve purchased a couple temp controllers and the new infrared thermometer and all working great. Please share a code if you can as want to try this.

Always had good experience with my Inkbird products so I bought one as I needed for my new coffee roast habit. Please count me in to the giveaway as i'd definitely put a second one to use if i win. .
