Unfortunately crickets from Nautilis. Update interval is set to 15min/900sec. Tried setting a custom stream as well according to the Nautilis directions for BF, which should 'send the temperature of the thermometer from the relay'. Nothing showing under custom stream in BF.

I recently purchased an iSpindel Relay and two iSpindels from Nautilis. The two iSpindels work as expected when connected directly to Brewfather. They also report on the Relay when connected there. However, the Relay does not communicate with Brewfather although on the same network and...

Just finished a Ruination IPA clone yesterday. The final few days of the keg the carbonation was perfect and it was finally crystal clear. Need a second 5 gallons in the keg! No patience here.

Had mine almost a month before the trial run as well. Made a batch yesterday and another one today. Really love this thing, solid as hell. Had 6 gallons in a 10 gallon Polarware at a full boil faster than I could imagine. Seems pretty easy on the gas as well. Have the leg extensions and gravity...

Moved to Colorado about two years back. Found boxes, think they were dish packs, from Home Depot or a Public Storage storefront that were about the right size and shape. I wrapped the carboys in a couple layers of thin foam but peanuts should work. No problems. 22oz bottles were just shipped in...

Used a couple of pigs for a number of years. Advantages were portability, ability to fit in a refrigerator, convenience vs bottling. Disadvantages were different priming vs bottles so splitting a 5 gal batch to a pig and bottles a bit more involved, a couple of failures (either the pressure...

Bought two of these towers from kegconnection.com but not at the same time. One came with the elbow shanks (it arrived packaged in a box) and the other with the tubing directly connected (no box, just wrapped in bubble wrap). Will be assembling these on the keezer in the next week or two.

Does chicompany.net still have used ball locks? Seemed to have either listed as sold out or disappeared. +1 on kegconnection.com although I think my last ball lock kegs were from Midwest Supplies.

Even with opening, the chest style likely suffers a lot less than a refrigerator.

I've got a 5 cu ft freezer running at 38F in my basement (averaging mid 60s Fahrenheit over the last few months). I'm using a Johnson Controls A419 for temp control. Its been plugged into a Kill-A-Watt meter for the last 2-1/2 months. At about 10 cents per KWh this is running at $0.54 per month...

Often see water hardness as the reason for cloudy Starsan. Mine goes cloudy with tap water with rated hardness of about 48mg/L (mainly calcium and magnesium with trace minerals). Does that make sense?

Lived in California for many years and you will find (discrete) signs even on restaurant entrances that the building contains "CHEMICALS KNOWN TO THE STATE TO CAUSE CANCER OR REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY". The most recent list (updated 26-Mar-2010) contains: "Alcoholic beverages, when associated with...

Ok, just brewed a rather large barley wine today that won't be cracked until this Christmas. After primary/secondary fermentation and racking into a Corny, how do I age? Just flush with CO2, put on enough pressure to keep a blanket and wait until Thanksgiving to carbonate? It will be sitting in...

Just brewed a Northern Brewer extract recipe today (115th Dream Hopbursted Imperial IPA). This had a full 60min boil with an Amber malt syrup (6lb) with a Gold malt syrup (6lb) for the final 15min and some corn sugar at flameout. I hadn't done an extract recipe before that had two additions of...
