Thanks.

Maybe simple but how much is it? If it proves reliable this could be a good device.

I use a 4ohm 100watt resistor on a heaatsink and a computer fan wired to a 12V 4amp power supply. This is effectively a 36watt heater. works well.

You already can. Press the Start Profile button (The one that looks like a triangle) this resets the graph for that session. At the end of fermentation. Press the stop button.

Check to Soda Stream to regulator adaptor. Look into the regulator side of it. There is a hex socket that adjusts the plunger on the bottle side. If not screwed down far enough the bottle won't open hence no gas. As you are getting a spurt of gas but when attaching the bottle and then nothing it...

Keep grain on the light side Mainly pale malt and you can add up to 30% wheat malt, this will enhance head retention. Galaxy is fine for bittering. No need for 60 min addition. I suggest a 15min addition and then Galaxy and what ever NZ fruity hop you like in whirlpool and dry hop. For this...

Have been using CO2 from the fermenter after 24hrs of active fermentation to purge sanitizer from kegs for many years without any problem. When active fermentation is on the way and all O2 gone from headspace increase pressure using sounding valve to 5PSI or so and start purging. Free CO2.

This part: https://www.kegland.com.au/deluxe-sodastream-cylinder-adapter-with-pin-adjustment.html or https://www.kegland.com.au/sodastream-cylinder-adapter.html will allow you to attach a SodaStream bottle to a standard CO2 regulator/

You can use a much shorter tube and get a good pour. Get a length of tube shorter than required. Connect Pluto and disconnect. Place the tube in boiling water for a few seconds. Do not submerge the Pluto or disconnect. Remove from water and quickly stretch the tube and run cold water over the...

I grow Chinook and something similar to Cascade in NE Victoria High Country. Pick late April when they go brown. Used only in Whirlpool @ 80C for 30 minutes. Beer is sensational.

I’ve been using cacao nibs soaked in vodka for 24hrs. Brings a distinct chocolate character to a stout. You could also add a vanilla been or two but soak in vodka to sterilise.

6KG for the eight tap dispensary and 2.6 as a portable works for me.

If you decrease the voltage the current draw will also DECREASE as the resistance of the element remains relatively constant.

If the heating surfaces (elements, copper pipes, side walls...) are too hot you can denature all the enzymes as the wort flows over the heating surface, ?? You got me confused, this is a HERMS system, wort should never flow over heating elements as it does on direct heat 1V, 3V and RIMS system...

As it will be stored in the dark, I vote for Translucent. Not practical to weigh a keg while connected in a Kegerator or portable cooler. Much easier to see how much is left.

Try straight StarSan or Phosphoric acid. Gets rid of beer stone.

What sort of one way valve on the gas?

This was the water profile as per BeerSmith for a "Hoppy Pale Ale" instead of adding to boil, second addition of salts can be added to sparge water.

Try this one, very close to LCPA on tap. This one comes out at 4.7%. You could increase the grain to get it to 5.2% as per original LCPA.
