    iSPindel - broadcasts once then stops?

    I was taken by the idea of making my own one of these tilty wifi hydrometers when I realised the kit of parts was available with instructions on Ebay for just £30. It's been a great distraction on a lockdown Sunday and I've got it working, although not calibrated yet. I can see the live readout...

    How long per step in a yeast starter

    Liquored back and OG stayed the same?

    I brewed a Kellerbier today, using a Brewer's Friend Community recipe. I think my measurements were a bit out as instead of an OG of 1.054 I got 1.066 but slightly too low on the volume. No problem I thought, I'll just liquor it back and there will be more to go round. So I added 3L boiled...
