I recently posted a final gravity problem in Recipe/Ingredients believing it may have been something in my recipe or process that caused my problem. Here is the thread: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=555317 I checked my SG again yesterday and it is still sitting at 1.030...

You know, I just thought of something. My PID temp probe is in the tee fitting on top of my mash tun lid and reading my recirculating wort temp, not actually the temp in my mash tun. There is about one foot of silicon tubing from pump to tee fitting/temp probe. I wonder if my temps in mash...

Thanks all. My mash temps were as follows right from beersmith: Acid Rest Add 23.50 qt of water at 95 F 5 min Protein Rest Heat to 125 F over 15 min 125 F 15 min Saccharification 1 Heat to 145 F over 11 min 145 F 45 min Saccharification 2 Heat to 161 F over 9 min 161 F 30 min Mash Out Heat...

23,369 plus 4 gal Belgian Tripel/ Golden Strong 23,373 gallons

4 gallons Scottish -80 and 4 gal of Belgian Tripel/Golden Strong. Bottled 4 gal of rye ESB yesterday to open fermenter.

Brewed up 4 gallons of Belgian Tripel/golden strong. Hit 1.082, looking at 10% abv... Hope it isn't too boozy.

Not anymore, broken hydrometer not worth it. I suggest pulling sample to check your SG. A wise man learns from others' mistakes.

21,143 + 3.5 gal Rye ESB + 3.5 gal Scottish Export 80 Schilling 21,150

Brewing a Scottish 80 schilling right now. Apparently bees like the smell of my boiling wort. I had the lid cracked to prevent boil over and a bee flew right into my kettle. He didn't come out. He's kettle trub now.

Just to follow up - I ran a regular light switch this AM and it works as it is supposed to. The E-Stop switch is faulty, Auber told me on Friday they would replace it if needed. Thanks. Now to address my loud buzzing contactor, replacement on the way already.

I'll drop a light switch in there tomorrow morning, maybe my switch is bad?

Correct, in the open position (not depressed) I get nothing between the poles. This the the same switch depicted in the diagram, the SW6 from Auberins non-illuminated. Thanks.

I just completed my 110v 20A single element control panel following PJ's diagram shown. For some reason the E-stop switch is triggering my GFCI in both open and closed positions. The GFCI pops as soon as I plug in my panel regardless of the E-stop being open or closed. If I remove the E-stop...

Thanks guys, I'll follow up after I get my parts and get things together.:mug:

Hello all, I brew mini BIAB (3-4 gal) using my 7 gal kettle and want to convert to electric. I've read most of anything I can find but need input. For now I am keeping my current BK to keep costs down and plan to use a 120V 2000W element on a PID brew controller that I intend to build. I want...

I'm surprised I don't see Rinelander on here. Back in college early 90's we would scrape up $4.99 for a case of Rinelander in longneck bottles. I left some in the freezer by mistake one time, it never froze. I let it go for a week and still didn't freeze. Old Milwaukee would be my next worse...
