What do you mean by this? "1oz mosaic, 1oz mosiac hop burst from 8 minutes to FO" One ounce every minute until FO?

Sorry about that. Fat fingers on a smartphone equals typos. FG is 1.012. I have decided to raise the temp to about 53. If I see no signs of fermentation after a day, then I will pitch again to finish fermentation. Then drop back to lager. I will post how it turns out. Thanks for all the advice.

It's 0.004. Though I commented about alcohol content, my real concern is too much sugar in the bottle (yes, I still bottle) resulting in exploding bottles. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Home Brew mobile app

Started at 1.056. Pitched at 70 and kept it there for the first 24 hours until it started fermenting. Then I dropped the temp to 54 (Munich Lager 2308). Fermented there until i reached about 75% of the desired FG (1.012). When it reached 1.023, I slowly raised the temp to 65 for three days at...

So I did my first lager following all the guides, but still managed to brain fart. After the D rest, I dropped the temp to around 40 without stopping at 55 to finish fermentation. I have been at 40 for three weeks and I am stuck at 1.016 with a desired FG of 1.015. Being greedy, I would like my...

So I looked at the schematic and it appears that all I need to do is remove the timer and wire the black line going into the timer to the orange line out. I have the TS2 powered via that orange line and the white line from the wall. Can I get a sanity check on that? (There was big duh moment...

I did not do that. Thanks for that one. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Home Brew mobile app

I replaced the thermostat in an old upright freezer and installed a TS2 controller. It seemed to work just fine for the first four hours or so. Then the it simply 'shut off'. What I mean by that is that the freezer had power, but the controller did not. I checked all of the wiring and I have...

I'm in!!

I thought about that. The problem is this freezer has a high temp alarm that will constantly be sounding while I lager as the temperature is not below freezing.

I recently purchased a Kenmore Elite upright freezer (model 253.26472101) to turn into a fermentation cabinet. I also have a Love TS2 temperature switch and probe. I was ready to replace their thermostat with the new one and found more that I bargained for. This freezer has some sort of circuit...
