Very nice article!

I'm in the Boston area and was getting about a week from order date to delivery which is fine for me. My last order didn't ship for three weeks, four weeks total to receive. I'm also backing the year unlimited option and voiced my concern regarding this, especially considering the volume of new...

I'm drinking one now. Pitched a full smack pack of Wyeast 1450, three days at 63, four days at 69, three days at 34 and kegged. Pretty good results.

They shipped it with the Belgian Blonde. Not sure if it was a mistake or not but the end result was enjoyable. Fermented in the upper 50's and then went up to upper 60's after a week. No Belgian Spice notes but tasty.

I used 34/70 in the Bolderiaan Belgian Blonde and it came out nicely. Probably my favorite so far. The Saison yeast in Belle OF The Ball is also not bad. I picked up some Bry 97 West Coast that I plan on giving a try in an IPA to compare but that will be at least a month or more away as I've...

Thanks guys. I'll pitch the whole pack. I'm used to using one smack pack for three gallon batches and will make a starter for high gravity beers of that size so was a little hesitant. In any case the US-05 flavor will be avoided. I never did care for that one and even at one tsp it really killed...

Anyone pitching a full smack pack of liquid yeast? I'm planning on doing Denny's Rye IPA and I'm guessing OG is probably around 1.064. I have a couple of pouches of Favorite 50 and based on their date and Mr Malty the estimated cell count is in the ballpark of 66 billion so it sounds like I...

What kind of turn around time is everyone getting on their picopak orders? I'm on my third order and my previous two shipped within a couple of days and arrived around 8 days after ordering. I have a current order that has been "shipment pending" for eight days now. I contacted support and...

In!

I had a similar issue a couple of years ago when I first got my BrewBoss. The temp would go from actual to 32 and if you touched the heat sink on the top of the controller it would bounce all over the place. Before sending it back for a replacement I opened it up and found one of the wires (the...

I'm in.

Count me in.

I had the same problem. Same as m00ps, I opened the controller and one of the wires was loose. It would cause the temperature to fluctuate wildly and the pump wouldn't power on.

Is anyone using the iPad app? I had tried the first release which was buggy and then updated the app to v1.18 but it still has issues properly turning the pump on. This is all supposedly fixed in v1.19 but the problem is there doesn't appear to be a way to upgrade from v1.18 to v1.19. If you...

Count me in.

Yoopers DogFish 60!

I used the new iPad app yesterday. There appear to be a couple of bugs that need to be worked out. The pump wouldn't power on without manually toggling it off and then back on with the button in the app each time it was needed. The boil detect never appeared on the screen either so I was never...

With the 5 gallon system without the COFI, just a bag in the basket, I maxed out with a 15lb grain bill. About 8 gallons of water and the grain for a 60 minute boil put me pretty close to the top of the kettle.

I've had mine for about five months now. I picked up the dual 120v 10 gallon right before the COFI version was released. I was doing BIAB on an electric stovetop and wanted better control over mash temp and this took care of it. Brew times aren't much different than what I was getting on the...

Code please.
