Take an actual gravity sample with degassed beer using a hydrometer. Your RAPT pill may have krausen crud stuck to it throwing off the reading. My conclusion for these sorts of devices is that they’re useful for monitoring temp and letting you know when your fermentation is completed but the measurement of FG is probably inaccurate.
- Comment on Carboy dryer, stackable, for homebrewing. (OC) 1 month ago:
I think he’s saying the dryer pieces themselves are stackable for storage when not in use, not that you should stack multiple carboys on top of each other using them.

- Comment on Five things our research uncovered when we recreated 16th century beer (and barrels) 2 months ago:
Hops grow better in northern latitudes (within reason), they generally need longer summer days in order to produce flowers. People have successfully grown hops in Scandinavian countries (and not just southern Denmark). You probably can’t grow them in Svalbard tho.
- Comment on Secondary Lager Fermentation Slow? 2 months ago:
You should leave your bottles to condition for two weeks, that loud pop you heard after one day carbing with ale yeast is all the CO2 pressure in the neck of the bottle escaping instead of slowly dissolving back into the beer had you given it time.
