That's what I suspected. Thanks.

Hey All, I've had my first batch of kraut going for two weeks now. It's still quite crunchy, not at all like what you get in a jar. Should I be leaving it longer or is it just a matter of personal taste as to the texture? It all looks fine, no sign of infection, and is tasting great. Cheers

Magnet, yes. Black stuff, no. Went down the sink on Thursday night sorry. This was the tube straight out of the keg. Not the greatest pic I know. Here's a better one, after a rinse and compared to the other keg's tube. Apart from the metallic taste the beer looked and tasted OK so I don't...

I tend to use percentages when formulating recipies, then scale the lot against my equipment profile to hit desired OG. Increasing just the base malt would be fine to make up for a small differences in efficiency. As I am currently getting consistent results, I am focusing on other areas...

Hi bingggo, I am about ten-odd brews in on the robobrew, seem to be hitting my numbers and making decent beer. Below is from my experience only, ymmv. I use the standard BS mash profiles. Deliberate mash out period, ramp to 76o then hold for 10 min, with mash-pipe in. Remove mash-pipe and...
