    Cheap eBay Heat Belt

    Buy yourself a temp controller like an inkbird or one from kegland or keg king. Plug your heating belt into the heat plug on the temp controller, attach the temp probe to your fermenter covered by a bit of insulation like a bit of stubble holder material. Set your temp controller to 20°. If...

    TILT HYDROMETER

    You can do a multi point calibration with water sugar solutions to get more accurate SG readings. Below is the first video in a 3 part series. Dry hopping can effect the SG reading if the hops aren’t in a hop sock because hop matter can stick to the tilt making the readings inaccurate. Krausen...

    Two Hearted IPA - Beersmith

    I brewed this one about half way through May and I don’t know what I did wrong but I was very underwhelmed with the result. I follow the recipe 100% from the grains and hops to the yeast. It was one of the most average beers that I have brewed, It tasted better than say Coopers Pale which was...

    $500 to spend on All Grain set up - WWYD?

    People that have bought Guten’s really like them and people who bought Brewzilla’s/Robobrew’s (me included) really like them. What ever you choose I reckon you’ll love it and you will be pumping out quality beers. I have got 2 Ss brew buckets and also really like them. Personally I’d buy a...

    Sudden temp drop 24 hours after pitching US-05

    The heat plug on your temp controller need a heating source plugged into it, like a heating belt or heating pad, normal fridges don’t have a heating function. I don’t have enough experience to answer the rest of your questions with a lot of confidence but when it gets back up to 19°...

    Yeah mate before I bought it I saw a youtube video review and it said the hole in the lid fits 1/2” silicon for a blow off tube. Works fine and seals well.

    SS Brewtech Bucket

    I usually use a senior airlock with mine, I push the bung onto the airlock then put the bung into the lid hole. Then the bung can’t be pushed in too far. When I use a blow off I just use a piece of 1/2 inch silicone hose into a jar of starsan, inside a larger jug. I have only used the blow off...

    Let's see your fermentation chambers!

    I picked it up on facebook marketplace for $150. It’s about 1695mm tall 650mm D x 640mm W. I took my measuring tape along to make sure that I could get 2 fermenters in it, before I had the brew buckets.

    Oxidation from dry hopping with Brew Bucket

    I’ve been using Ss brew buckets since March, I have 2 now. I dry hop just by taking the lid off normally and I don’t pressure transfer to my kegs, I just use a bit of 8mm hose to a beer disconnect onto the out post into a purged keg. So far I haven’t had any problems with oxidation.... touch...

    Brewzilla and kegmenter

    I never passivated my Robobrew 35l 3.0 because nothing was mentioned in the instructions or any of the “first use” videos I watched on youtube, but it wouldn’t hurt to do it. I passivated my Ss Brew Buckets as per the instructions : First Time Cleaning Pre-Clean: Prior to first-time use...
