So, after a long hiatus, I am getting ready to get back into brewing, using my new diy brewery (partially seen here: Typicalnervecells typical diy electric brewing build. ). Now, I'm pretty sure I did the maths, but this was prior to covid even, so I suppose a second opinion wouldn't hurt. The...

I tried flashing the software yesterday, and some very quick testing suggests it was uploaded, and is working, but I get a LOT of error messages when building. Am I missing something with Platformio?

I should probably get around to building the brewmaniac controller and read trough whatever manual is available... Thanks for the advice about ssvr control, looks to be affordable to add one if needed.

I'm in the process of making a new brewery build, using a 3500W element. It will be controlled with brewmaniac software. Now, for a couple of reasons, if possible, I'd like to limit the power of the heater to say, 3000W as this will put in, or near enough to ULWD territory, as well as give me...

Just wanted to say thanks to SSR for making this :) Also, for fellow europeans, if you are able to use notepad and the search function, it's possible to change from oz to dl if you should want to do so, and don't mind fiddling a bit with the numbers. In my setup, the amount poured is more or...

Just tried the kveiked Citra smash ipa. At first I was not entirely convinced, but I am quickly on my third glass, so I suppose it is quite alright! Definitely different from how I recall my previous batch of citra smash ipa with US-05.

What's the difference between in the bottle and in the fridge?

Here's a picture of my latest batch using Voss kveik. I was sceptical if my 40W heating belt would be enough to keep it at high fermentation temperature, but wrapping the fermzilla in a couple of layers of blankets does wonders. Room temp is roughly the same as OP's basemement, and the surface...

I am, thanks! Just noticed that you (seem) to be based in Sweden? You wouldn't happen to have any boards for sale?

I'm about to start ordering parts for the pcb and I'm wondering about the phoenix contacts. Am I correct in assuming that any old phoenix contact with a 5.08mm pitch will work?

To no ones surprise, Voss is a berserker! Just a bit over two hours since pitching and already it is nearing 7psi!

Thanks for the input. Got the brew boiling, will get my spunding valve ready :)

Hi guys, planning on brewing a smash ipa tomorrow, using Lallemand's voss kveik. Will be fermenting in a 27L fermzilla, so I was wondering just how wild this yeast gets? Should I be worried it will push stuff all the way up into the spunding valve (In which case I might use the standard airlock...

Yes, I've seen similar-ish products, but nothing that would work similarly straight out of the box.

I've been looking for drop down hooks, like pictured here but so far I haven't found any for sale anywhere. Does anyone know if these are sold on their own at all?

Decided to make a little build log of my ongoing electric brewery build. This will be my second brew setup, although the first one was always intended to be more of a prototype consisting of a plastic bucket with arduino controlled heating elements. It works well enough, but I don't like using a...

Thanks, I should be good then as the plan so far is to just make a cutout in the malt pipe stockpot, so there will be supports for the filter mesh.

@Gruel Do you think a typical mesh will need some form of anchoring along the rim to be able to support the weight of the mash?

Thanks! Will see if I can find that size mesh from someone willing to ship to Norway. Seems a hole puncher that size is available on ebay, so that should do it.

After waiting 5 months I have gotten my new stock pots, which will become my next brewing setup in due time. I plan on using hole punchers, but I'm wondering if anyone has used them for this specific heater element? If so, what size? I'm thinking 32.5mm should do the trick, but do tell. US $26.8...
