done some digging and found a few calculations that help with this - cheers anyway!

Hi all, looking to get back brewing on the Grainfather after a few years away, totally rusty! I picked up the 'Hoppy American Pale Ale' kit from Get er Brewed ( Hoppy American Pale Ale All Grain Ingredient Kit - 23 Litres 6.4% - Get Er Brewed ) and looked at the Grainfather app (has changed a...

Still got problems with foaming, looks to be coming from somewhere near keg, see attached video. I've tried changing the seals, the push on connector and the grey John guest adapter that fits it to the 3/8 tubing. Any help appreciated.

Excellent, thanks for that. I have no idea how to utilise each hop and at what stage, where do you learn this?

Cheers for this but it looks like i'd have to get a heap of other hops, was hoping for a simple SMASH type to use up what I had.

I was wondering if there was anything I could do with this load of hops that I have in the freezer, looking to buy malt and if required more hops - but would rather use what I have! Looking to make any IPA / APA any sort of hoppy pale ale variant. Columbus - 14g Cascade - 30g Calypso 30g Bravo...

This is what I was using.

Got the harder to find hops from Cross my Loof. Will probably use them in future, handier and more cost eficient than getting delivered from Ireland! (I'm in Scotland). Very reasonable prices and good quantity (per gram) selection. Beer is a lot darker than thought for some reason, dark...

I think I've narrowed it down to the dispensing gun. I've switched it back to a picnic tap and not getting so much foaming. No idea what's happened as it used to be fine plus I've taken it apart and cleaned it out.

Hi all, I've started getting foaming from my corny keg quite bad. It started towards the end of my last batch on keg one and has continued onto the second batch on keg two. I'm serving at around 3c, all tubing kept in fridge along with keg. The beer isnt overcarbonated. I've tried releasing...

Hi all, I was wondering if there was somewhere that you could input what ingredients you have and it would suggest possible recipies based on what you have in stock? For instance, i have a load of hops but unsure what would work in future recipies, is there a website or software that would...

I fermented at 20c throughout so just dryhopped at same temperature. Will cold crash after 3-4 days.

I'm brewing this at the moment, the dry hops are in as we speak. I got around 19l at the end of the boil which was giving me 1.056. I added a litre of boiled water and it took me to 1.051. I'm using a Grainfather in the UK so usual UK power output. Either the recipe is slightly wrong or...

Not a hijack at all! Cheers For the sheet, I'll look into that. I wrongly took the post fermentation refractometer reading at face value and assumed it was correct.

Hi all, I've recently started using a refractometer, today when my wort was almost finished fermenting I took a sample and the refractometer gave me a reading of 1.023. (the refractometer has brix on one side, and specific gravity on the other) I double checked the same sample with a...

how many days into fermentation is best to dry hop with this?

So you wouldn't have rest periods of any kind or raise temperature at the end of the mash?

Does anyone have suggested mash steps and timings for this, or would it simply be mash at the stipulated heat then boil? What about mash out etc? Cheers

Yeah I got the extra pale too. Look forward to your recipe, looking to brew early next week in the grainfather.

Nice one, never thought of using ebay for hops. That's them ordered so original recipe for me.
