    Any fridgey's out there?

    Yeah that was my thinking as well. A southerly change has since come through and dropped the temperature and its running fine again. The spec sheet says that it can operate at 43° ambient but that seems optimistic :unsure:

    Any fridgey's out there?

    Hey boys, I Picked up a 910l Williams fridge second hand the other week and my first batch is fermenting in there now. However now it seems there is a problem with the compressor. It worked fine to start with and cooled down to 3° within ten minutes from ambient but now the compressor cuts in...

    The Electric Brewery Build Begins..

    Yeah thanks for that. That sounds like a pretty good arrangement you've got going there! I'm after the 55 gallon kettles and they're $670 in US and $1200 here. Absolutely ridiculous! I've used MyUS in the past to buy wakeboard gear and it was a pretty good setup. Might get the dimensions...

    The Electric Brewery Build Begins..

    Hey Plugga, I've been inspecting The Electric Brewery site for a while with interest and am now seriously considering going ahead with the build. I was wondering if you bought your Blichmanns from the US or local? When you say you had "access to a US postal address", does this mean you used...

    IPA ferment stalled with Ringwood 1187

    Yeah thanks for that. Punched all the figures into the relevant converters and the corrected refrac reading came back at 1.0178, confirming the hydrometer reading. Only problem now is that I had already pitched the rehydrated US-05 into the FV before I had this information. Will cold crashing...

    IPA ferment stalled with Ringwood 1187

    No I didn't realise that was required. Alcohol is lighter than water which means that I if I was adjusting for alcohol I would have to adjust the reading up, not down. If i adjusted the reading up it makes it even further out than what the hydrometer measured.

    IPA ferment stalled with Ringwood 1187

    Just went and pulled out the old hydrometer and what do you know, its bang on the expected FG of 1018. WTF? Why is my refrac so far out? What a waste of $60!!!

    IPA ferment stalled with Ringwood 1187

    Whats wrong with using a refractometer? I would have thought it would be much more accurate, especially as it auto corrects for temperature.
