    Equipment For Sale Full 3 vessel system for sale in Central Coast

    hydrometer vs refractometer

    Both hydrometer and refractometer measures 1.000 at water. The reason for the range is because I don't remember what I measured and I didn't write it down 😬 But definitely the issue was with correction for OG. My OG measure was out of boil, so definitely wasn't at the right temperature.

    hydrometer vs refractometer

    Well, it was expected to finish at 1.003, so perhaps it could go below. Either way, should be fine to cold crash, right?

    hydrometer vs refractometer

    Ok, so if my original 1.055 is actually correct, then my final 1.010-1.015 is definitely wrong, otherwise i'd be well bellow 1.000 hahhaha Even if it was actually 1.025 (the 6 Brix that I measured on the refractometer) and I accidentally read it wrong in the hydrometer, it'd at 1.005 territory...

    hydrometer vs refractometer

    Hey guys, feeling pretty dumb here that I can't read my instruments correctly. hah Post boil my refractometer reading was ~13 to 14 = 1.055. Today, after couple weeks fermenting, it read a bit above 6 Brix. Using the calculator in brewers friend, it said that the 6 brix (which would be about...

    Brewha BIAC

    Has anyone ever ended up purchasing a BIAC system in Australia? If I could get my hands on one of these, I'd sell my 3V and hop onto the simplicity train. Cheers

    Black hops Neverland grapefruit double ipa clone

    I plan on pressure fermenting until sounding valve stops increasing when I purge a bit (i.e. until fermentation ends). I'd then open the fermenter and drop a hop sock with all the hops in. Close it up and purge with CO2 several times to ensure w/e O2 dilution happened, it's not there any more...

    Coagulating(?) Beer

    I increased temperature from 12 to 18 for nearly a week and finally stopped seeing pressure increasing (fermentation finished). Took a sample and was 1.02 in the refractometer and 1.011 in the floaty thingy.. so definitely done. Cold crashed for 3 days at -1 (beer lowest point was 0.9) and now...

    KegLand Questions and Answers

    Thanks so much for this! Had to adjust to +7 to make it right, as it was showing -6 and it was +1. The compressor kicked in immediately, not sure if coincidence or not. I set it to -3 now, let's see if it takes it there

    KegLand Questions and Answers

    Just checked with a Kegland temperature controller. It's 1.0C and the series X is oscillating between -5 and -6 in the display.

    KegLand Questions and Answers

    It's standing on the floor at an angle with the corner of the room, so there's a lot of space on the back and on both sides of the unit. There is zero ice build up anywhere. I'll do as suggested above and leave a glass of water in there for a few hours and use a probe to measure the...

    Hand pump for ball lock

    I'm looking for a way of manually pumping air into a keg to be able to move liquid without using CO2. Example.. filled my corny with cleaning solution and want to run it through my beer lines and taps.. don't want to waste CO2 doing it! Anyone have a makeshift solution for it? I thought about...
