Thanks for the reply but Elco already helped me. My Uno has a weird VID and I had to add it to the known_devices list in autoSerial.py. That made it work perfectly. I was always using the legacy branch. However now I'm struggeling to setup my devices. BrewPi doesn't recognize my teperature...

Hi everyone, I'm having trouble flashing my Arduino Uno. This is probably also why the webpage says, the script is not running. I have BrewPi running on a RaspberryPi and receive the following error when executing updater.py: `Checking current firmware version... Apr 16 2016 16:16:34 Opening...

That's probably exactly what it is! Can't agree more! It's really funny because my home brewing efforts are more directed towards the US craft beer styles... It's so hard to get these over here ;) It's one of the oldest human stories... you always want the most what you don't have!

I'm from Germany and even though I have to admit that we probably have pretty great pilsner beers, unfortunately our brewery's seem to be stuck on that style. They all claim Germany to be a great beer country, but honestly nobody really knows the greatness of a good IPA or Stout. It's all...

Hi folks, I'm sorry that I have to ask this question, as it is probably somewhere within this 143 pages thread, but I still don't really get your FWH calculations. The amount of late hops, that you move up to FWH are being recalculated to give the same IBUs as they would in the original recipe...

But then you don't get the carbonation... :(

I was thinking about doing a winter spiced version, backsweetened and with some vanilla and cinnamon soaked in rum. I was talking about this here: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/spiced-winter-cider-443814/ Considering my planned outcome I was thinking about not using any hops at all. Can I do...

I might just have to do this as well. Thanks for your input! Would you add any hops to this, considering my planned outcome?

Thanks for the input. I think I will just go without the honey flavor at all. I find the pasteurization method to kill the yeast to be very scary. A friend of mine did a big mess doing this. Half of his bottles exploded. And for me it would not just be messy and sad for all the lost beer/cider...

Hmm what would you say about Windsor or S-33? Both are supposed to have a very low degree of attenuation. Though I've never used either one before. I would like to see this being more of an ale than a wine or even a champagne and I'm guessing with a high fermentable wort like apple juice the...

hmmm nobody? :(

Hey folks, I was looking for a nice winter cider recipe that is spiced, cold, carbonated and good to drink without extensive aging. Should definitely be on the sweet side. I couldn't really find a good recipe or answers to my questions so I'm just opening a new thread. From what I've read so...

I did add some water, but it really wasn't much. About 10 ounces. I didn't want to fall below the 1.060. It's fermenting nice now and will be what it is. I'll let you guys know. Thanks for the answer though!

Nice so I'm looking forward. Thanks for clarifying :D

I did a batch with lots of late hop additions saturday. Recipe is here: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f66/red-chair-nwpa-clone-360189/ Pretty much followed it as it is. I was just wondering if I was supposed to be able to smell and taste the hops in the chilled wort? As I tasted it it was sweet...
