  1. 🎃 Fall brewing project: a 1-gallon Harvest Pumpkin Session Mead.

    ~8% ABV, semi-sweet, built to drink young. Pitch it this month and it's ready by Thanksgiving.

    What goes in:
    1.75 lb wildflower honey, about 1.5 lb roasted pie pumpkin, pectic enzyme (pumpkin is a pectin factory, skip it and you're drinking haze), half a pack of 71B, and Fermaid O staggered over the first few days. OG lands around 1.062.

    The important stuff:
    Roast the pumpkin until the edges caramelize. That step is most of the pumpkin flavor right there. Raw puree tastes like squash water.

    Ferment dry at 62-65F, stabilize with metabisulfite and sorbate, then backsweeten with honey to 1.012-1.014 for semi-sweet.

    The spice goes in at packaging as a vodka tincture: cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, ginger, and a restrained pinch of clove. Clove takes over a low-ABV mead fast and never ages out.

    Drinks like: warm cinnamon and nutmeg, roasted pumpkin underneath, soft honey on the finish. Semi-sweet without going syrupy.

    Timeline: pitch mid-September, rack and stabilize late September, bottle mid-October, drinking by November, peak around the holidays.

  2. Brewday! After ten years of homebrewing, I cannot escape my German heritage any longer, so I will embrace it and make a German Pilsner with fresh Hüll Melon hops.

    A 🧵

    (In which I might look back on ten years of homebrewing at some point so if it is too much text, feel free to skip ahead 😅 )

  3. The other day I used my craft beer trained sense of smell to find a fried IC in one of our devices.

    So if someone asks me in a future job interview, what I learned from my hobby that is applicable to my work, I'll answer "Homebrewing taught me olfactory troubleshooting" 😆

  13. My #craftbeerpi hat for #raspberrypi is now CERN-OHL-S licensed. Hopefully the real world tests will be successful. maybe we can get a bit closer to easy to use and widely available open source #breweryautomation, especially for #homebrewing

  17. Is there interest in a small device able temperature convert PT100/PT1000 sensors and delivering this information via 1-wire (disguised as a DS18B20 for example)?

  21. My #craftbeerpi #raspberrypi hat is making progress. Added push pull stages to every MOSFET, as additional protection as well as resettable fuses, reverse voltage protection and optimized the postion of a few parts. I can hopefully soon go into prototype production. #homebrewing #craftbeer #breweryautomation
