Absolutely. Belgian and Stella glass is like a partnership... Like Abott and Costello Like Hoges and Strop Like The Greens party and unrealistic ideas for policies They just go together 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs a couple more weeks to hit its peak though, I think. I also got a Monch and a Bohemian for comparison in the order I just got, which I'm going to dry hop instead of using the essence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, both good lagers, interesting to see which one you like most out of the three Edited May 21, 2022 by Rob Courtney 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Parkinson Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 Hi BrewArt Community, I have my first brew in the beerdroid and it’s 13 days and hasn’t moved into Kegging mode. I am concerned it’s to long, I am travelling this week so it will have to be left in storage mode. questions does it normally take this long in brewing stage (I know 20 days is max) does it move to kegging phase automatically? Do I add the hops before kegging ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xpsTech Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 Welcome to the forum @Jay Parkinson I can see from your screen shot the Droid has started temperature ramping, this usually means that the fermentation is nearing completion. When fermentation completes it will automatically transition to Kegging. Don't worry if you are travelling, if you do nothing after two days in Kegging, it will auto transition to Storage, alternatively, via the app you can switch from Kegging to Storage, and them back to Kegging when you are heading back home. The Belgian Lager BrewPrint uses liquid hops, add these directly to the kegs if you are kegging, or if you are bottling add them into the Droid a few hours before you bottle. All seems ok, however, it would not hurt to drop an query to BrewArt support as the fermentation is on the longer side of normal, they can deep dive into the data the Droid logs and perhaps pick up something that may help next time. Cheers 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain 3 Droids Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 Hi Jay and another warm welcome. My records indicate 10 days about the norm although I have had a 12mths fermentation cycle. I wouldn’t worry at this stage and xpsTech is spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Parkinson Posted July 2, 2022 Report Share Posted July 2, 2022 Hi Guys, I have left the brew in the beerdroid another week and it’s still hasn’t switched to kegging phase. Should I just keg it today or wait till tomorrow being 20 days so it will then automatically switch ? BrewArt emailed me saying they checked the logs and it will move into kegging phase during the week and it hasn’t? could the beer have failed ? jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you remove the lid look for any bubbling, if not keg, if not sure post photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Parkinson Posted July 3, 2022 Report Share Posted July 3, 2022 Hi Captain, I got it kegged yesterday without any problems. The plastic sleeve on both keg linings slipped off when the keg was filling. I did another brew this morning so hopefully I get better each time.
