Hey MS
Nice build.
What controler did you get? Pre-built or kit?
How is the ebrewing going?
I'm wanting to make the switch as well. Brewing in my unheated shed at -15 C when I have a heated basement is getting old. Lol

I don't have any carapils so added the C40 as wasn't sure how to adjust the biabacus to eliminate the addition. The C40 should have a EBC of 40 not 105.2, correct? S&H, please read cwier60's post above carefully where he correctly states that Carapils is not a Crystal malt. Technically, Carapils ma...

Was a little worried, as never had one this active before. Tasted the beer on top when stepping it up & it was fine so should be good to go:)
First 10 gal batch this week.

Have you ever had a starter this active?

Hey PP
I figured this out after posting it, of course if I subtracted it from desired VIF I should take the measurement before add ing the starter. Doh!
Beer bubbling away happily when I left home yesterday. Should be ready to keg when I get home.
Thanks PP

Hey PP.
Think this is the right place for this. MODNOTE: Moved to this thread.
Just brewed another Blonde Ale yesterday. Went pretty well.
The VIF includes the 1.5 L starter. Is this correct?

Todd's IPA is tasting great! Still cloudy but the last batch did clear up about half way through the keg.

Hey PP The reason the numbers add up exactly is because I didn't actually measure the KFL. I calculated it as it was blank. Lol. I guess I should have just left it blank. Keged it yesterday. FG of 1.010. Should be ready tonight I carb it with 35 psi for 36 hrs. Not sure how to put this in Biabacus. ...

Hey PP Have another look when you have more time. The 24.52 is a figure that you typed in not the BIABacus :). The EVOB I put in is 25.5 in section L. The EVOB-A seems to be calculated when I put in the VIF. Which was 21L. Forgot to measure the Mash volume in Section L, just added a number that I th...

Hi PP Just catching a plane so will have to make this short. You see how in your BIABacus, you have 24.52 L in Section L as the EOBV-A, does that 24.52 include the 1.5 L starter? I'm asking this as there is no VIF figure recorded in the file and your evaporation rate looks too low. Biabacus must hav...

Hey guys. Been busy working since making this batch but here is my file & a few more questions. I noticed that my last brew was quite clear by the time the keg was almost gone, about 2 months after kegging. Brew went pretty good, about 6 hrs from start to finish. I adjusted the evaporation rate & au...

Good evening from up north. I haven't been around for a while, been working & then holidays. I know life is rough. Getting low on beer, need to make more. I want to make another batch of Todd's IPA since the 1st one turned out so good. I filled in the Biabacus & attached. It doesn't seem to be givin...

Hey PP I'll definitely try your suggestions on my next batch, prob in a couple of weeks. With the hot tap water I was more thinking it effected the volumes as I wouldn't of had enough water in at the start of the mash. I haven't had any prob with clarity in any of my extract brews in the past so not...

Brew day done. Went much smother than the 1st one. LOL. Can't wait to taste these bad boys & running low on beer. I decided to forgo the secondary on these batches & leave them on the yeast cake for the whole fermentation. If your volumes are a little low do you top them up & if so when is the best ...

Thanks Yeasty.
All the volume # are from his book, not the link I supplied with the recipe? I looked for the others but the only one I could find with the link was the 19 L.
I just finished making a starter for the Wyeast 1056 & will start the batch tomorrow morning.
Thanks again.

Not sure why it's locked. I did a search to find Biabacus & found this version. It says Blanks.ods. I don't see this on the other Biabacus attatchments.
Where do you down load Biabacus from?

Hello fellow brewers. While I'm patiently waiting for Todd's IPA to be ready I'm deciding what beer to make next. Just finishing off a keg of ESB (extract with steeped grains), yummy! Thinking of changing things up a bit with perhaps a blonde (don't tell the girlfriend), since I have most of the ing...
