The GF has a small Pipework set that can be used for smaller volumes, I have one it works well. An issue to consider if your brewing weekly is temperature control for your fermenters, you will have 3 possibly 4 batches at various stages, fermenting, cold crashing, lagering and so on it could be diff...

Probes do go off, something you might try is soaking your probe in a warm solution of Biological detergent (for the washing machine). The enzymes may remove any proteins that are blocking the poures in the glass membrane.

It works sometimes.

I have used stainless steel car tyre Schrader valves on barrels both to blow Co2 in and to check the pressure, they worked well. But I was never sure they actually were stainless, the valves I bought were sold as stainless however when one showed signs of corrosion I cut it and found Brass!! Atb. Alan

Ahh well not enough...

Now I know there is a limit to how highly carbonated a beer can be if will be stored/dispensed from a PB. For instance Lagers are usually considered too fizzy for a PB. Does anybody know exactly (ok near enough) how many volumes a beer can be carbonated to and still be stored in a PB? Atb. Aamcle

Mine is working as I type although it's not reporting temperature but I think that I'm to fault for that.

Try 1/2 a dish washer tablet. I have been using dish washer detergent for some time it works well and as far as I can tell does not foam. Some people including myself worry that head retention will be effected so I rinse well after cleaning. This includes flushing water backwards through the pipe wo...
