New yeast... One day Washed yeast... Two days

So, update... I went down to my chamber, opened the door to feel the carboy and move the chamber temperature probe about 2 inches (where you see the sudden drop in chamber temperature from 85F). Now the chamber temperature seems to be at a more appropriate level. Very odd, I cannot explain this.

Hi all, so I have been using my Brewpi fermentation chamber for almost a year now with little to no issues. I am not going to say this is an issue, but rather an odd notable. So I brewed a APA (1.053 OG) and cooled to 70F and pitched one packet of US-05. Everything started off normal, but as...

5 gallons for session IPA 5 gallons for APA 940.5

Just tap the keg to my Grapefruit Session IPA. Very refreshing. I only brew sub-6% beers.

Notes from beersmith... Kiln dried malt darker than Pale Malt, but not as dark as Munich Malt Imparts a golden to orange color to the beer. I would try it. May get different malt flavor due to the kiln process.

Picked up an ounce of Citra hops. Also found a brand new ball lock keg with a minor (very gradual) dent for $60 I could not pass up. Now I have an on deck keg.

Thanks guys. I will look into dry hopping with Citra or more cascade. I am mashed in and waiting for vorlauf now.

How long would you dry hop for? And would you stick with cascade hops? I usually dry hop after 7 - 10 days and still in the primary. Then cold crash and switch to the secondary for further settling.

You ran a switch that could not handle the current load and it welded shut. 3000W/240V > 10A. It's not because it's Chinese, it's because of a poorly engineered panel. This is the reason you see others have relays to switch the high current circuit, or use a motor switch. I would recommend...

So I settled on a hop schedule... 0.5 oz at 60 minutes 1.0 oz at 10 minutes 0.5 oz at 5 minutes Ending with 32 IBUs. Hoping to have a balance of hop to maltiness similar to Sierra Nevada PA (lower OG for my preference.)

Hi all, I have Monday off, so I decided I wanted to brew a pale ale. I already bought the ingredients, but I am having second thoughts on my hop additions. The recipe is... 87% 2-Row 8.7% Munich 4.3%. Crystal 60 Mash at 152F for 60 to 75 minutes checking conversion. US-05 Yeast My...

I use a 150w ceramic bulb from eBay. No issues for 1.5 years. My chamber is probably close to 5 cu ft.

I recommend downloading google rewards and after a few months you will accumulate enough money to pay for the $8 app. I use it every brew day for timers.

I spent $75 on a breaker off eBay to replace the breaker for my garage. Cheaper than a spa panel for my case. I would say worth the safety.

You can use a 1/2 conduit punch also, which are cheaper than 13/16 round ones. You can always buy a used punch on Craigslist or EBay for cheap too. I did this for my elements which take a 1-1/4 inch hole.

Hi I am interested in the pumps...will buy both.

I am interested in the Auber PID.

Mainly for show... but I have left them on for a long weekend once... no issues for my taste.

Sounds like a soft short internal to the ITC-1000F.
