Your first picture shows a total IBU of 29.7 + 3.9 + 1.7 = 35.3 IBUs The second shows a completely different (lower) number. Have you saved the recipe? Otherwise it could be a bug in your beersmith.

I just set Weaved up and it's great! Super easy to set-up and works flawlessly from my Android phone over 4G network as well as from a friend's house WIFI. Enter your login and password, and you're brought to the var/www/(html) folder of your Raspberry Pi.

I just wanted to share my nice experience with growing basil using potting soil mixed with spent grains. Basil plants from both images have been planted at the same time, one with the 'enhanced potting soil', one without.

Hi, The recipe says: Protein Rest: 140 F 15 Min* Saccharification Rest: 150 F 60 Min* Mash-out Rest: 168 F 15 Min*

Thanks for the tips! Yes this project will be for brewing for commercial purposes: serving craft beer in my new restaurant. For some reason, DME is extremely cheap here (I'm based in China), so I'm still tempted to use it.

Hi all, I'm currently building a 55 gallon electric brewery and would like to continue brewing high gravity Belgians with it. I often use WYEAST 3787 for my beers (around 1080 OG). According to MrMalty, making a 3 liter starter, then stepping up to 5-6 gallon will create enough yeast for...

1030 seems so high even when severely underpitching. The kind of reading you'd get from a refractometer at these levels of alcohol :)

Thank you very much for sharing your experience. I'll repitch a bit of yeast when bottling. Is it safe to use crown caps 33cl bottles this way (like for the original Westvleteren)?

Hello everyone, Do you repitch yeast with your priming sugar when bottling on this one? I guess with such a low secondary phase this is not needed but it cannot do any harm right? Thanks

Good day everyone, After 2 months in the secondary, is it advised to add yeast together with the priming sugar before bottling? I've never brewed a beer with such a high alcohol content and such a long secondary phase. I've got some slants of 3787 ready in case repitching is needed. Thanks for...

Hello, thanks for the updated instructions. I just programmed a new Pi, and the only thing you should note is that the web directory is now by default var/www/html/ instead of var/www/ as before. I suppose that change came with a new version of Raspbian?

Thanks for the link. You mentioned that bottling at higher gravity was a bad idea. If the fermentation is really over, what's the issue? Thanks!

Did you keep it at 80F until full attenuation?

We're talking about a 5 gallon batch. The yeast is from December 2015, always kept in the fridge. I know it's still vigorous since I had to use a blowoff tube on a Trippel I'm fermenting at the same time. Thanks!

Alright I'll get a new small starter going tonight and repitch tomorrow. I'm a bit puzzled since I oxygenated with pure O2, added yeast nutrients, pitched at a good temperature, had a starter of 3 litres. I really don't know what I will have to do differently next time, except maybe doubling the...

Yes, I'm now at the 7 day mark and at 80F. Krausen increased in volume, but really not much (2-3 inches above beer level). Gravity is still 1035. I guess I should wait another few days at this temp before going to secondary. Or would you recommend pitching more?

Good day everyone, I brew this recipe for the first time 3 days ago! Only got a OG of 1.081 due to poor efficiency. It's now sitting in the temperature controlled fermentation chamber, and fermentation didn't kick in as strongly as I'm used to with the Wyeast 3787. After 3 days, I only got a...

Hello all, First of all, thanks for your help, I managed to manke my multi chamber setup work perfectly. I have a question, did anyone use Xbees between the temp probes and the Arduino's? If yes, how did you do it? Thanks, K

Hello, I'm stuck at the exact same point as you are, when trying to set up my multiple chamber system. Same error message, tried multiple Uno's and versions of the hex file... I also get the error saying that programController() takes 6 arguments (but 4 given). And indeed, when looking into...

My pressure cooker simply doesn't have a gauge :) Thanks for the explanation! I already see a flaw with these differential valves, your pressure cooker won't work the same at sea level and at a 3000m altitude, when indicating 12 psi in both situations :) Enough off topic. I'll start slanting...
