On a mashmaster mini I crush around 1.2mm. Run recirculation slowly for a while and then try to turn it up a little. I find it mostly depends on crush, how much flour you have, and the types of grain. Worst for me has been when pushing the capacity of the malt (the boundary seems to be 1kg...

Hi Matchu, Yep - have some kits left - will PM you.

have brewbot delivered theirs? Any feedback on it?

Hey Mardoo! Back for a couple of months now, which is nice :)

Hi guys - back in country once again. Just replied to some PM's. Let me know if you need help with anything / want a kit etc.

Glad to hear it Barneey! Enjoy the controllers and let us know what you make with them!

The only problem with the Braumeister malt pipes is they are designed for Low/Mid gravity brewing. With an internal 'malt pipe' you are somewhat restricted in choices - I would recommend going with a larger malt pipe - which forces larger low gravity batches, and allows you to do the fun high...

The only 'problem' is that the active heating lengths are generally very short for immersion elements - which means high heat density. Which means potential to caramalise wort unintentionally or to scorch the wort on the element surface and prove problematic to remove. Most of the designs you'll...

Just an update for everyone - I do have some kits left and will have some time over the next 7 days to ship them out. If anyone is interested - PM me. After that I will be out of the country on work again for a couple of weeks till Mid May. I'm really glad everyone is finding the controller kit...

Hi Barneey, Just got back from an Int'l travel with work - sorry for the extended delay on yours - I've PM'd you a choice. Again apologies. Happy to send your money back if that is your choice.

Thanks Jamey! Appreciate the kind words. Definitely glad you've noticed both the quality and the value - that was the aim when choosing to go another round of the bulkbuy - and to make something that looks professional.

Hey guys - yep - there have been some delays (and fairly long ones - I think a couple of weeks?) on a couple of people asking for kits recently. Purely because I haven't been able to get to a post office. I took a new job recently and it has been 14 to 18 hour work days since Jan and 10-12 each...

You can control the temperature by adding a few tsp of water when you hit your desired Temp

Hi fab, Can you post photos of your wiring please? What pump are you using?

Post a picture for those of is that haven't seen the underneath of one. In principle yes, you want the Brauduino to control the temp, not the urn.

Oohhh, that makes sense. So wouldn't that be an issue if you reduced the diptube too? How do you know where to fill to in the keg? (Can't see the gas dip tube)

I'm pretty new to kegging. I didn't realise you weren't supposed to fill above the bottom of the gas in. Why is that? Coincidentally, I was looking at how to replace the plastic dip tubes in some kegs I bought and came across a post that said the kegs were designed to be daisy chained with the...

How did the special b wort one turn out Barls? I made some date sugar after reading about it after I made the batches - haven't used it yet though and it has turned into a lump of slightly wet rock. Ziplocks aren't thick enough. I should have vac sealed it. The reading I did said the same...

Hey techno, I do 3x290F with tsp of dap each time once you hit maillard temps. From memory around 240F. Drop water in to cool after sitting at 290F for a few mins. Invert with lemon juice to start by maintaining inverting temp for 15mins before going further. It makes the difference between...

Someone else posted a while ago saying they had issues on Mac as well. I'm sure there are arduino users on Mac though. Show us your rig when you use it next!
