Yes, one of the purists, there are a few!

My dearest apologies for assuming you were “one of them”. Unless you are, but just don’t care about your water use...

A lot of adjuncts are fermentable. Without knowing your whole grain bill and volume it’s hard to tell Crystal malt and chocolate malt are certainly fermentable though. PPG I’m not entirely sure though, although I’d be happy to run it through BeerSmith for you.

Is that a big deal in England? Not entirely sure how the water charges work there?

Nurofen vs Ibuprofen. Agreed. But, all assuming the same standards, ethics and quality of control is met during the growing/harvesting procedure. Would say growing and producing a high quality, yielding plant is tough - and the guys with the patent know what they're doing. But, I'm all for...

Capacity is fine, brand maybe not so much... 18650 UK https://18650.uk/ They have an eBay shop too. Ideally, you want a battery heavier than 42g. Negates the need to throw in old coins, kitchen sink and other assortments of dross for ballast.

Cheap Chinese job with the fake capacity.

What was the capacity? Always best going with a reputable brand.

Same problem from Mac/PC as well as a mobile device/tablet?

I was most impressed with their beer names. Juice Forsyth got me :laugh8: Alas, I never placed my order. I'm not paying £15 delivery...

Either or, you're laughing! The best thing about soft water is the fact that it's a blank canvas; perfect to build into whatever you like. Scottish water AKA rain. We gurn about it, but it is beautiful when you think about it...

Thanks Dan! Feel your pain about the FV's... Both mine are full and I'm doing a bit of a dirty/lazy cold crash to free them up quicker than normal. "It'll clear in the keg" is what I'm telling myself. One is a Wee Heavy anyway, so it'll be clearing in the keg for months. Hopefully...

Aye "moderately soft" is what Scottish water deem it - but it appears pretty soft off the private report. Below is the Scottish water report, and the Beersmith image I posted to Dan earlier was the private report I had done; the hardness is hugely different! What area is your water buddy?

Bloody tax month, just **** it off and go under the radar:laugh8: Feel free to attach photos of your soldered battery connections, etc - or message them if you'd prefer. Where was the battery from and is it branded, also what's the mAh capacity? There's always the possibility that it's a dud...

Thanks for getting back Dan, really appreciate it. Going off your profile there, I may well just go with the slightest of treatments for my already soft water in that case. Sulphates ~50ppm, can easy up my Cl to ~100pm for the 1:2 ratio. Cheers pal. NEIPA brew Sat if hops arrive on time 🙃...

Good points @steveb! The OP says he's yet to carry out any calibration yet, so I'm assuming there's no polynomial entered or offset calibration done and thus no angle of tilt measurements to display?

That's right, I remember now! Local loon🙃

Yeah, Windswept is okay, but that's about as far as I'd go. All the Keith brewery beer tastes like crap yeast and is probably some of the worst beer I've drank to date...

This is a pretty tough question and open to a lot of debate... Regarding your SO4/Cl values and ratio, I would have though that would be a multiple of your volume difference. i.e. for each: new ppm value = [(original ppm x (pre-boil/post boil)]? Solids can't evaporate, so you've just...

Never been in! Probably won't bother now :laugh8:
