Be forewarned... if you are into homebrew then you might be very disappointed in the first episode. Also, while you spend your time "enjoying" the show, remember that Golden Road sold to inbev and the show is also sponsored by NorhterBrewer.. owned by inbev. if you find yourself getting pissed...

shawn, can you give us an update on your experiments with the hop hash? did you use the Idaho 7 yet? if you were to brew the citra batch again would you still use that much in at flameout and dryhop? thanks
Thorrak, thanks for the reply... i was thinking that the first four would be harder... but maybe something that would benefit others.
on my arduino setup i currently there is a chamber fan pin.. is this going to be available on the FremTrack? and could we use a four relay board to support it...
Thorrack... i can't wait to see how Fermtrack turns out!!!. few quick questions... will it allow for ability to pair temp sensors together... i usually use two carboys and it would be nice to get an avg of the two as my beer temp. also...i would love to cut a large hole in the side of ferm...
so.... a bit more thoughts...
--averaging the carboys because there is really on one cooler/heater
-- you can use a fan to pull in air in but if have the heater and cooler plugged in it would be nice to use outside air before or to help
-- not the brew recipe but as a profile template... for...
Recipes --- this is the direction i want to see BrewPI go.. i think they are getting off track and what us brewers that already have a manual brewsystem want is a cool - DYI - ferment controller. i have been using brewpi with an Rpi1 and arduino for over a year. while it works there are some...
sorry so long to get back to you... i am trying to shrink my brewday time down as much as i can but still take 5hoursish... heating the water is not something i wait for any longer.
Your correct. cleaning is a PITA!!! but i have been thinking of ways around that... i just put a spray nozzle...
If you want an easy brewstand that will last longer then you... look for a heavy duty costco rack. then get one of those 4X8 stall mats from tractor supply and cut it in half to fit on two shelves if doing electric. If you are doing gas then put down something on the bottom shelf that will hold...
i have a 20gal megapot for the BK. love the stoutness of it and the gallon marking inside. I have a cheaper kettle for the HLT because all the other hardware i put in it (50' SS HERMS and two 5500 element ). looking back i am happy that i have a sight tube on the outside of HLT so i can keep the...
I love mine. amazing how fast is chills and i like not worrying about stuff getting stuck in plates. i would most definitely buy it again. go with the big one. Currently there is no mounting bracket but i think it's better not to have one so you can roll it at then end of cleaning to know you...
