I can't see why not. If the OS etc can run then the Python scripts should also run, it's all just run from whatever the file system is mounted from.

Ah, I thought there was a 4 in there somewhere, what's an order of magnitude among friends. Thanks for clearing that up and the advice on usage rates. I have been using a pinch of powdered Pot Met for de-chlorinating (sp) my brewing liquor but I didn't know it would de-oxygenate (sp) water as...

Hi Mark, a quick question about usage rates if I may. I have some powdered Potassium Metabisulfite and I'm guessing that a Campden tablet weighs about 4g, does that sound about right to you? Regards, Dave

Hi Bruce, I pested the council and finally got a custom report, this is what the main concentrations are for northern Shoalhaven (Bamerang reservoir). Ca: 22, Mg: 3, Na: 10, HCO3: 55.8, CO3: 0.2, Cl:17, SO4: 19, pH: 7.8 These numbers are a bit dated now and probably should be updated but they...

I think I used 1/4" UNC

I use a mini regulator that takes both bulbs and regular CO2 bottles, into this I have a soda stream to standard regulator adaptor which screws onto a soda stream bottle. All parts can be sourced from Kegland. https://www.kegland.com.au/mini-all-in-one-regulator-charger-with-prv.html...

Hi mate, you have plenty of time but if you're the impatient type I can email you a link.

I don't much about pressure fermenting but set a low amount of carbonation as you suggested using whatever means that is convenient for you. Then apply N2 to give a good flow rate from your nitro tap. The beer does not absorb much N2 it mainly just pushes it out to simulate a beer engine with...

Flow control taps add to the foaminess, try plain taps instead as the line balancing (line length) should set a good flow rate. Also if you want to run shorter lines then use 4mm ID line rather than 5mm.

Another place to try is STPV in Melbourne. I have bought posts and seals from them in the past.

The Robobrew is pretty reliable these days and just about all the components except for the main body/heating elements are available as spare parts at reasonable cost, although I don't know what the postage to Japan is like.

The clamps make a good electrical contact.

Hi, what does the laser etching look like? Regards, Dave

Hi, I get better than that. I usually get around 82% mash efficiency and about 76% Brewhouse efficiency.
