With full volume RO Water, mobile app is calculating a mash ph of 4.64, no acid additions . Seems too low with only 2lbs steeping grains. https://www.brewersfriend.com/homebrew/recipe/print/1364972

Got some awful news about my fur baby today from the vet. Rusty has been in many of my “what are you drinking now” pics because Vizslas are always at your side. He’s been with me since my first brew. I have only days left at most and I’m crushed. I thought I’d enjoy seeing his pics here...

Using S04 yeast for a Foreign Export Stout with an OG 1.068. Expected FG is .017. Four days in its at .025 and creeping, I expect its going to stop at .022-23 which is way too sweet. Some of this is my fault, didn't pay attention during the later half of the mash and the temp rose to 157. I've...

Well my first entry in a homebrew competition is in the books. The First Coast Cup. I didn't have high expectations since both of my entries were first time brews and first time for the styles. I was surprised when my name popped up for First Place! Really excited to take home the gold in Amber...

I scaled a recipe down to 3gallons from 5.5. The EXPECTED pre-boil gravity IN BF RECIPE EDITOR is 1.103, for an expected post boil gravity of 1.065. seems like the recipe editor calculated the lowered water volume but used the malts from the original 5.5gal recipe. *It should be around 1.056...

Just finished a split brew session. can't remember if I selected to deduct all inredients from inventory when i first started the brew session. today i finished up the boil this morning but i had two brewers friend windows open. i went into one of them and selected -edit brew session- and...

I needed some specialty malts and yeast, FarmHouse has a free hops with purchase special going on (you get whatever hop they throw in) . i couldn't resist. I'm now the proud owner of.... one pound of Jarrylo hops :confused:o_O:confused: I've found some info on them but doesn't sound great...

I’ve been doing this for about 6 months with great results. Recommended by someone when I was complaining about length of brew day . At night I prep hlt, heat water, mill grains into mash tun. Run the mash. Mash out. Sparge into kettle put the lid on, Clean up. 2.5 hrs. Wort should be...

When I choose an acid type with target ph filled in, & put something in the acid amount field, its not telling me the kettle water ph, or if it’s high or low or anything .

most of the hops and fermentables have no description at all. a description of the ingredient and typical flavors added to a beer seems like a basic necessity for a brewing application, but its oddly missing everywhere. A bigger beer mug on the recipe page would be appreciated too, so I can...

When i was making the recipe the mash temp I was fiddling with was changing the fg and abv predictions. later I was back editing the recipe, no changes occurred to the recipes abv or fg when I changed the mash temperature setting. I thought I was losing it. another time I did get the abv...

yesterday it was 50, today its 75/sunny. Nuts. sorry for all that are stuck in snow storms. I just signed up for a year to give this thing a real try. I've been using beersmith for years so I'm clunking around trying to figure things out. Any advice on how to import recipes from that program...
