South Dublin Brewers - Next Meet - Thursday, 28th January

[jackstrongjastro]

Hi everyone,

My name is Jack, I am kind of new to the whole homebrewing scene. Me and my dad have made a few batches at home using extract and hop pellets. We also manged to grow some pioneer hops our back garden and made a nice malty IPA. I am in college at the moment and doing a project where I am building a temperature controlled fermentation chamber. It would be great if I could come along and talk to you guys and get some tips on brewing and maybe ask you some questions about your fermentation processes.

thanks

You'll be very welcome, Jack. We normally kick off around 8pm in the lounge. We'll be doing pre-competition tasters so hopefully there will be a few good 'uns for you to sample.

Hi Jack,

Sounds good, hope to speak to about your project as it sounds cool. A lot of home brewers use Stc-1000 controllers with fridges & heat sources such as heat belts or old tungsten bulbs as a heat source. Currently doing a project with Rasberry pi + ds18b20 (one wire temp controller) to record & graph the fermentation temperature. Allows me to tinker with basic electronics & raspberry pi. Also allows me to try out some newer software technologies.

Have to scrap the porter had a taste not ready (had pulled 2 bottles from the batch before adding oak chips a 2 weeks ago to compare when the rest was oaked.) so one bottle left I'll bring both to the next meet.

Enough for a 2 or 3 litre starter. So maybe like 300g?
