As a Plaato keg owner I was looking for a way to display the levels on the flat screen TV my mate gave me for the Brewing Garage. Web searches brought up a few suggestions, some attractive and some more geared towards commercial options. After some Facebook recommendations I settled on...

I don't think my Tilt is reporting correctly. I think it's likely the size of the krausen messing with it. I'll leave it a week and take a hydrometer reading. Cutting it fine mind!

Well done everyone, I feel honoured to be in the same forum as so many awarded and august brewers!

I also put the Spunding valve on my liquid out post on the Fermzilla, that was maybe 3 or 4 brews ago.

Oh, I threw away a part of the malt pie whilst emptying the spent grain once.

1) Not doing brew prep the day before 2) Being blasé about water amounts 3) Overcrushing the grain 4) Adding fruit to beer 5) Ignoring out of date yeasts 6) Forgetting to put the temp probe in the SWH and spargeing with boiling water (fore the record it was fine) 7) Forgetting to turn valves off...

The competition Pale's fermenting well. currently 4 points over the expected FG. If it goes over 6.2% do I get disqualified as it's outside of the BJCP guidelines?

Brewed my entry yesterday. I guess I should see how it turns out first before committing to sending it 😁

All done bar leaving the kettle to soak. The IPA smells amazing. Finished at 1.055 instead of 1.050, and I'll look into why tomorrow. Took a sample of my Festbier straight from the Fermzilla (pictured) moderate sulphur, but I'm sure that will fade during the lagering til September. When I can...

Blimey evidence of fermentation going already

Unfortunately I got scorching on the bottom of the Grainfather, so I've had to soak and scrub before starting brew number two. I've milled my grains and am now transferring my Festbier from the Fermzilla I'll need to clean for the IPA into a freshly sanitised keg. Whilst beer number two feels...

Sadly my time is not always my own and if I want to enter the monthly competition for a change needs must 😁

1.050 pretty much bang on. Now to start brew number two, which I pretty much can't be arsed with.

Whirlpool done, transfer away! I'll take some readings when it's all finished.

Sparge finished an boil reached. Forgot I'd altered the recipe to fwh and panicked when I realized I had to move all the crap off the freezer... Only two slight errors so far (touch wood) the Riptide is so quiet I thought I'd already turned it off when I removed the recirc pipe and I also kno...

Mash out finished. Beautifully clear wort.

Well, that's the transfer of the Vienna Lager all done

Passed the iodine test with merit.

Purging my keg and lubing my ring *snigger*

Brought the bins in (Brown today). It's important to record ALL the details on your brew days.
