So.... we're definitely going _this_ weekend right? I'm looking at going over on the 11:45 from þorlakshöfn on saturday, back on the 15:30 on sunday. I'd like to be in one of the beds I paid for last time, I had a twin room under booking number: 2068362458 I'd love to carpool with anyone if possible...
I've got one full keg and two half kegs gassing here, but they're not cold. Does anyone have spare fridge space for at least one keg? Or some appropriate bucket/something to fill with ice?
Got the false bottom from Hrafnkell, but he didn't have any bolts around. Took a bit of dicking around, I mis-measured, and then had to dis-assemble and _rotate_ the element so it sat a little lower. Then a minor problem with the lock nut, but the angle grinder fixed that. Used 5x60mm stainless bolt...
So, first thoughts after it's first road trip... The stock STC1000 firmware is (predictably) not very useful for maintaining a boil at less than 100%. No surprise there. Will have to poke the sct1000plus firmware a bit The pot will absolutely need some insulation around it. Mash temps were... not su...
I find that the "inertia" of all that mass of water requires PID control Yeah, plan is BIAB, single pot. Guess I'll find out :) If I'm insulating the pot (soon!) I don't see a lot of difference vs my old separate mash tun and water just raised to a set point and dumped into the mash tun. ...
Got the brew pot connected last week, today, a nice "stay at home" day, I put the control box together. Currently running unmodified firmware on the STC1000, but it's had a programming header soldered on, so I'll probably put the "plus" firmware on at a later date. (enable step m...
Ok, so I missed this short line in the middle of the long long news update, "Fundurinn verður miðvikudaginn 1. júlí kl. 18 í heimahúsi vestur í bæ. Fylgist með á heimasíðu eða Facebook grúppu Fágunar fyrir nánari upplýsingar er nær dregur." but that also doesn't have much anyway. Also, as ...

FWIW, I used picnic taps full time, on ~2m long beer lines for "ages" before I got real taps. I left them at "real" pressure, (13-15psi) the whole time. I occasionally had little dribbles, but nothing major, it was always just a matter of twisting it a little left or right and &q...
