    iSpindel

    I have several of these now which I purchased from Gingerneil on here at a great price. I use Brew Spy as well, which works well for me and is clear to understand. I also don’t rely on them for exact gravity readings, but it’s great for a overview to identify when the gravity stops falling and...

    Brewzilla Temp problem

    Phil, as MM has said. I only use the 1900w together with the 500w to get to temp and when there only use the 500w. My temp stability is much better since I put a jacket on it and keep my brew room above 18c. The last time I did a brew I did check the temps independently and from memory I think...

    BIAB, Grainfather or Robobrew

    Done my first brew yesterday in my new Brewzilla from BrewKegTap, in fact my first all grain brew after solely doing extract brewing. Couldn’t be happier. Brew day went without any hitch ( a couple of near misses, down to me). Used all the screens, plus 200g of rice hulls and the mash went...

    Brewzila robobrew

    Done my first brew yesterday in my new Brewzilla. Couldn’t be happier. Brew day went without any hitch ( a couple of near misses, down to me). Used all the screens, plus 200g of rice hulls and the mash went really well. When I collated the numbers with Brewfather got 81% mash efficiency and two...

    G70 Owners.

    Was recently going to buy a G70, but my friend had one delivered which was damaged due to poor packaging. The pump was loose and hanging off it’s fixing. One of the switches was disconnected and hanging out. The electrical connections were of a low quality crimped diy type and not very secure...

    Mini Keg - Not holding pressure?

    Just a added thought on carbonation. When I force card in kegs I use the data on brewers friend. Force Carbonation Chart - Brewer's Friend The colder I do it the better and I keep the gas on the keg for the entirety of the carbonation duration. Shaking the keg can speed this up, but as I...

    Mini Keg - Not holding pressure?

    I have had issues with my sodastream set ups when used with mini kegs leaking before. I now put the whole lot in a bath or big bucket of water to identify any leaks if I think there is a loss of gas. When I have had leaks it’s always been around the regulator and hose or the PRV on my...

    Suggestions please - starting to put together Kegging kit

    Anna, Horners reply is as concise and effective as I have seen. (I think he may have been in my house as that really is my set up). I wish I had this advice a few years ago before I wasted a lot of time and money. I use a variety of dispensing methods directly from my all rounders, but my weapon...

    Help me choose a pressure fermenter

    I have used both on my two all rounders and now only use the plastic caps as they seem to seal more effectively and continually than the SS ones.

    Can anyone recommend a decent lager kit?

    Because they are described in the advert as "sugar inclusive kits"????

    iSpindels

    Neil, My iSpindel arrived very speedily this morning. The workmanship and tidiness of the construction and soldering is second to none. Thanks to the sound advice given by Dolve (thanks for that Dolve, I too was completely bemused by Ubidots) I downloaded the Brew spy app and calibrated, with...

    Priming 5l Kegs vs bottles

    Falco, the added advantage is the Ghost Ship is a lovely beer. I started out using 12g but everything was flat. Over a period of about eight different brews I gradually raised the sugar level. My last two brews (4kegs each) have been done at 21g and yes they have been frothy to start pouring...
