Fermentation time on Tall Tale Pale Ale

[Sondre Sørensen]

I know the fermentation time is between 5-7 days. Im on the 5th day of fermentation and im just wondering how the beerdroid knows when to go to keg mode. Does it auto detects when fermentation is done?

Does a fermentation test every day to detect fermentation you will see the temp change to  "FE" for an hour whilst this is happening. When it detects fermentation is complete it will let you know via app and go to ready to keg. Keep in mind that fermentation lengths are guidelines only, it may take longer

Interested to know how the unit detects when end fermentation is detected as there appears to be no SG tester built into the Brewdroid???

In general I believe it works on temperature changes and other perimeters, however you need to know that this technology is commercially sensitive, it’s world class and not done by anyone else. So they are rightly not telling.

Yes it has to be an algorithm based on temp history and time as there are no other sensors involved. Just curious.
