temperature

Hi All, An interesting one for you, I’ve noticed since temperatures have dropped that my recent beers seem less carbonated (despite me using heat pads during fermentation to maintain the correct temp). This is the same for beers brewed before temperatures dropped but which I’ve put in the...

Hi I've just started my first fermentation (one 5l bottle of cranberry juice and one 5l bottle of ice tea with no preservatives). I am using Youngs Brew Home Brewing Super Wine Yeast Compound For High Alcohol but I can't find any information on fermentation temperature for this product. Does...

So I have tried many different ways of getting from the end of fermentation to bottle/barrel and have as yet not really come across a definite 'proper way' and I'm hoping you guys have the experience and know how to help me out here. I have a batch of IPA about to finish fermenting, its only a...

Hi y'all, New member here, thanks for all the help so far from some of the brewers on here, I've scoured many a topic and had lots of valuable info. I'm back to brewing extract kits after returning to buckets from the Pinter 2.1 debacle. I've noticed that some of the instructions are saying...

Hi all, Here are some suggestions about how to connect the wifi well with the Inkbird ITC-308 Wifi temperature controller, hope it can help you a bit. 1. If you use the iphone, please log in to icloud first.Or you can registere and set up on an android phone, then log in successfully to that new...

Hi I'm somewhat new to this, having only made a couple of brews. However, I wanted to check something regarding measurements of OG and FG. I was taking an OG just before kicking the temp up to a boil, then taking it again after the boil, for my OG reading. However, I realised that the reading...

Hi everyone, I’m new to this and on to my second brew (first one was a disaster and ended with 40 pints of Wherry down the sink)! Current brew is going a lot better so far (festival IPA) and have set up a brew fridge with a heating tube at the bottom but I have a few questions for you please...

Hi all, I have been brewing now for 3 years and have always fermented in a cupboard that has a stable temperature of 20 degrees C. But due to excessive geekiness, I decided to make a brewfridge using a raspberry Pi and kit from BrewPi. It's in an old under-counter chest freezer which can...

Hi there, I brewed a kind of Oktoberfest/Marzen on Sunday and used Mangrove Jacks M54 California Lager yeast. I pitched at around 22 degrees which is a little higher than the recommended but after 15 additional minutes of cooling I could not get it lower (we are 8 weeks or so into a 35 degree...

Hi, When fermenting I place my fermentation vessel in a "builders bucket" filled up with water and heated with an aquarium heater. I use a thermometer to monitor the temp of the water in the bath. A pretty standard set-up. Question: should I keep the temperature in the water lower, higher or...

Hi all, another annoying 'what should I do/what do you recommend?' post for you. Not sure if this is the right part of the forum. I want/need to start fermenting in the garage due to now doing more regular/larger batches than previous so house no good really. I'm trying to do this on the cheap...

So here's what I use. It's easy and quite cheap to make. The panels are just two plywood boards (4mm and 9mm thickness) with 10mm of cardboard sandwiched between. same for the lid but top peace of ply is 12mm. The box at the bottom has two 40w bulbs in it and the temp controlled by a...
