    RIS Water Adjustments - Bru N Water vs BeerSmith 3

    Revisiting this again. The brew has been delayed until September now since I just finished my electric system build and want to brew a couple simpler malt bills first to get the hang of the panel and process. Here is a screenshot of what I've come up with in Bru'N Water. I'm still a little...

    Spike Complete System

    I did a similar thing. I bought a lot of the Spike System, but not the pumps, table, or panel. I did this for two reasons, to save money and so I could have the panel I really wanted. I bought Riptide pumps and built the Electric Brewery 30A DIY panel kit from Kal's website. The table I...

    RIS Water Adjustments - Bru N Water vs BeerSmith 3

    RIS Water Adjustments - Bru N Water vs BeerSmith 3

    That's comforting thank you. I've only used pickling lime twice myself. Once for a darker beer and yesterday because I hit a 5.11 mash ph, so 1/4 tsp (1/2 gram) of pickling lime to fix that to 5.31. So it sounds like you're running into the same thing I am. Over compensate on Bru N Water to...

    RIS Water Adjustments - Bru N Water vs BeerSmith 3

    Not late as I'm not brewing this for another couple of weeks. When I brew this one, I like to do it in August so it's really nice by the winter months. I will take a look at yours and compare to what I've got when I get home. How close to the projected mash ph from Bru N Water is it to the...

    We are working out the details on setting up the group buy. Will start a new thread soon with the information. Thank you for all the interest. We will just need to meet a minimum order to make this happen and benefit from the lower cost.

    RIS Water Adjustments - Bru N Water vs BeerSmith 3

    Hey everyone, Just wanted to bounce this off some folks for opinion. I'm lining up a RIS brew in a couple weeks. I've been using BeerSmith since forever, most recently version 3 with the water tab. I've also got the full version of Bru N Water version 5.5. So I use both as well as EZ Water...

    Revisiting this topic, I have good news! I spoke to the owner of a new LHBS near us in Rock Hill, SC (just opened earlier this year) and he is open to setting up a group buy for our area. I need to work out any details but I wanted to see if anyone here was still interested. I'd like to work...

    Introducing… the Spike FLEX!

    I should've bought the SS Brew Bucket when I had the chance. Now I'm between that and this lol. Next time extra funds are available, I'm hoping to buy a stainless fermenter to add to the brewery. I love my Spiedel over plastic buckets but I think it's time to go stainless.
