Best of luck! I hadn't realised GW's Beer Engine would only run on Windows.
I also hadn't realised some people don't use Windows! My IT knowledge is minimal.

Re: Calculating a grain bill from percentages
As a starting point a beer of 1.045 OG will need about 4.5 kilos of grain. You can then use Graham Wheeler's beer engine to work out the fine details. You'll find the GW beer engine on here at: JBK Links>brewing calculators>Graham Wheeler's original beer engine calculator. JBK links is at the top of...

Re: What's Wrong With my Inkbird ITC-308?
A few queries first, if I may. Well, quite a lot of queries really! Have you got the Inkbird set at +/- 0.3 C or +/- 3.0C? I'm guessing the former, but just checking. You say 'it' goes up to 70C. Is that the reading from the Inkbird probe or a separate probe? Where is your Inkbird probe located? How...

Re: Moldy taste from Beer Engine does not go away
Sending the pump back to England and having it „re-refurbished“ is way to expansive in this post Brexit world. I guess I will say a prayer, take the pump apart and have a look inside. There is not much I could ruin anyway… Best of luck! Hadn't realised you weren't in the UK. Let's hope you can buy ...

How's this going? Have you managed to sort it out?

Re: Moldy taste from Beer Engine does not go away
Perhaps you could contact the company, explain the situation, and ask if they could service the handpump and fit new rubber seals.
It would probably cost you a bit, but better than throwing the thing away.

Re: Weekend cider
Confused! Why does it say 'cider' on the bottles? Is it already fermented? I thought you made your own.

Re: The mysterious case of the diminishing sugar level…..
You can also buy one like this that that gives you the wort original gravity as well as Brix. https://www.amazon.co.uk/AUTOUTLET-Refractometer-Aluminum-Specific-10%C2%B0C-30%C2%B0C/dp/B07CCH49DY/ref=sr_1_4?c=ts&keywords=Refractometers&qid=1688380280&s=kitchen&sr=1-4&ts_id=3579771031&th=1 Remember t...

Re: The mysterious case of the diminishing sugar level…..
This is as good as any, if you want a hand held one. You'll need to convert the Brix reading to gravity. Plenty of on-line converters available. For a quick 'rough' conversion, multiply the Brix by 4.
If you fancy spending a bit more, then a digital refractometer is worth getting.

Re: The mysterious case of the diminishing sugar level…..
Hi. When you say the gravity was lower after the boil, do you mean you measured the gravity in the kettle before running the wort off?
Or do you mean the gravity dropped after running the wort from the kettle and after you'd sparged and squeezed the hops?

Re: Cornelius Maxi 110 not getting cold
I would not bother with either. It does not need digital accuracy. Gycol is actually a less effective coolant (it's antifreeze qualities is why it is used) Those bits ain't broke, don't fix them until they are. Or.. Just don't waste money you could spend on beer. 😂😂👍🏻 Any fridge repairer will regas...

Re: Cornelius Maxi 110 not getting cold
Hi.
I think there's an impeller in the ice bath to stop it freezing solid. It could be that which is causing the banging noise. Perhaps, if the impeller isn't working, the whole unit won't work. Some sort of safety thing, perhaps?
Others will know more.
