    I did report those issues, I try to help where I can … I also paid the license (if that's what we're calling it these days) fee.

    Beers/ales/Lagers from your past that you want to/have tried to clone...

    And a little Googling came up with this: Family history: Christian Heurich Brewing Company - Wikipedia Bringing back the original beers: Heurich Senate Beer, once DC’s #1 brew, is reborn - DC Beer The sad reality of today: The Olde Heurich Brewing Company - Washington, DC - Untappd

    Beers/ales/Lagers from your past that you want to/have tried to clone...

    One of the first craft breweries in the DC area in the early 1990s was Old Heurich. There was the prerequisite family story about an ancestor who'd owned a brewery pre-prohibition and a claim that these were the original recipes … . Ultimately, the beer was quite good and it would be fun to try...

    BJCP categorization for a Julebryg

    I thought about that, but it's not really experimental since it's a traditional Scandinavian thing … it's just not in the style guide. And if you got a stickler judge who decided that it could go in any other category, they could bounce it …

    BJCP categorization for a Julebryg

    Every year I brew a batch of beer to be given out as Christmas gifts to family and friends. I am brewing a Julebryg this year based on a recipe from The Bruery and had a taste when I transferred from primary to secondary. It was quite tasty so I'm thinking I may enter it into some beer...

    Wait … you don't make a living creating free software and posting it to people who then ask for more free stuff? How is that possible? </sarcasm> Brewfather integration would be spectacular for me personally. I only mentioned the Wordpress integration as it would make it easier for professional...

    A simple digital Taplist solution

    If you did decide to focus on the tap list aspect, here are a few spots where I feel TapitGood falls short: 1. When you import your batches it does not import the images into the TapitGood system. 2. The import does not indicate the batch number from BrewFather which makes it annoying to keep...

    A simple digital Taplist solution

    Exactly that. Because TapitGood exists and the integration is pretty good (though not perfect), I would suggest focusing on the fermenter/calendar aspect. I know it would be a whole different animal, but it would be worth it. In re getting your hands on an API key, reach out to Thomas. He's...

    A simple digital Taplist solution

    I'm tempted to say it's an old version of Safari thing, but this being 2020, I'd venture to say it's just another sign of the impending end of the universe. ;)

    A simple digital Taplist solution

    Well, first and foremost, one of the most requested features on the Brewfather site is tap list integration. This has actually been done by the guys at TapitGood (they charge $10/year for 4 taps with unlimited beers and $20/year for unlimited taps so there's income potential there if the API is...

    OG increases after a day or two? Tilt monitor

    I've noticed the same thing. I attributed it to the krausen pushing the tilt around but the above theory about CO2 bubbles sticking to the tilt itself seems more likely.

    diving in to ambient fermentation …

    Got the tray at RestaurantDepot.com, it was about $20 new with shipping. The wood is leftover poplar from the deck I built and the bottling spigot was one I accidentally bought when I got a second bottling bucket for lambics/wild beers and thought it wouldn't come with a spigot. Took about an...

    The Koeldinghy, full depth hotel steam table tray with a bottling spigot installed in the bottom (this was testing for leaks).
