I think I have fixed it. It may have been one of a couple issues: I was using a static IP when i first set it up, and the DNS/Gateway was wrong (long story, but this device sits on a VLAN for IoT Devices). But it seems that even though I had cleared it out or updated that static value, it...

I had a question about stability. I got everything setup and running today. I am running v4.0 (NewUI) using a NodeMCU, 2 sensors, and 4x20 LCD. I am also powering it via USB (5v/2000mAh). It is currently built on a breadboard to make connections easy while I test things out. I plan to solder all...

lets hope!

I also just brewed this. First time using some new equipment and I had some issues. But I cannot wait to start dry hopping. I ended up using Deer Creek Pale Malt (local PA maltster) * SRM: 5-6 * Lovibond: 4 * Usage: to 100% * Moisture: 2.0-4.0% * Total Nitrogen: 10.9% * Extract% (dry basis)...

I was gonna build another, but at that price, I am just buying it!

The only thing you need to do in order to use the 1/4 reducer is drill it out slightly. All fittings have a stop point inside, which allows the 1/4" pipe to hit the 'end'. Use a drill bit to file this down a little, and the pipe will slip right through.

I believe that you would want 1/2 to 1/4 to properly fit the copper coil inside. I tried with 1/2 to 3/8 and it was too big for my purpose.

I got a chance to recirculate with mine this weekend. Here is a video. I am pumping boiling wort to sterilize everything here. When combined with my immersion chiller, I cooled a 3-gal batch from a full boil to 70 in 12 minutes. Not too bad. I then used the pump to transfer to my primary. All...

So I am planning something easy drinking for summer lawn cutting season, and this sounds like it fits the bill very well. Has anyone cut the recipe down to a smaller batch size for testing? I would like to make a gallon or two to see how it goes, then ramp up from there! Also, what is the...

I got my Tan pump in 2 weeks. The previous linked power adapter works well. I plan to whirlpool with it. I will post a video of how well it does as soon as I am done assembling.

The concensis seems to be that using a valve after the pump is the best route. I have not seen anyone who was able to get a rheostat to work properly.

So I finally pulled the trigger on the tan chinese pump! I also got the "plug and play" adapter so I will try it as soon as it arrives.

I get the feeling that "she" is neither young, nor a lady! Maybe nice, but I also think there is some price gouging there!
