How To Setup Your Inkbird Temperature Controller | Home Craft Brewing 🍻

[@joshuaklein943]

I don't normally comment, but brother: You just saved a whole beer fridge from exploding during a massive freeze! Thank you for doing what you do, and I hope someone saves your bacon some day like you just saved mine!

[@mattichu]

Really helpful as just starting with temperature controlled fermentation with kegs in a fridge

[@martinpaquette2631]

This is an excellent and quick user guide, thank you. I am using mine for kombucha and vegetables fermentation with a heating mat inside a Styrofoam cooler. I am doing this since it is starting to get cooler here in Canada (Ottawa) and I haven't turned on the furnace yet (waiting another 3-4 weeks) to heat the house so my ferments aren't rising to the desired temps.

[@canadianfarmervision2955]

How do you switch fro. Heating to collong?

[@Mattysizzle]

nice job. answered all the questions I quickly wanted answered, right to the point. you got a new sub bro

[@FamilyDIY]

Happy to help! Thanks!

[@RickSanchez-ye9bi]

Thanks, just about to set mine up for a pilsner kit. Your video was much more helpful than the instructions that came with the inkbird.

[@FamilyDIY]

Your welcome. That's exactly why I did the video. The instructions provided were not very helpful.

[@rotgutrevolution]

Descriptive and succinct. Thanks!

[@FamilyDIY]

Thanks

[@reptilesfishandmore]

Use these for my reptiles. Had to unplug mine and move it recently and couldn't remember how to set it up properly (and I seem to have lost the manual.) Helpful vidoe!

[@FamilyDIY]

Glad to have helped!

[@yakirmalka]

Excellent explanation ❤

[@BamaDega]

Can you set up a surge plug to the heating side, to use multiple heat mats?

[@FamilyDIY]

Don't see why not. Give it a try

[@billg1411]

Thanks. A very user friendly device

[@FamilyDIY]

It also works great for controlling the temperature in a green house.

[@volare6355]

Where do you get the probe cover?

[@FamilyDIY]

Check the video description, there is an Amazon link to where I got mine.

[@Master_ofReality]

Does the inkbird come with that metal sleeve for placing inside the liquid?

[@FamilyDIY]

No I needed to pick it up separately

[@wayneogorman5600]

How to get the cooler light on green

[@FamilyDIY]

You need to set the low and high temperature. Once it goes above the high, the cooling plug should turn on

[@bellarinemultimedia6790]

great simple tute, thanks!

[@FamilyDIY]

You are welcome!

[@johnkuba5496]

How do you switch over to the heating side to set it?

[@jeremyhunter2319]

I have the rubber probe, do I still need to avoid it making physical contact with the wort?

[@FamilyDIY]

Your choice. Just make sure you sanitized it well.

[@jeremyhunter2319]

@@FamilyDIY thanks, yes I think I'll just be sure to sanitise.

So I want to get a heat band for my 5lt carboy, I have a decent recipe for a pear hydromel, 500g orange blossom honey, 1lt pear juice, topped up with water, 5g pectic enzyme, 1g yeast nutrient and 3.5g lallemand voss kveik ale yeast, bottle conditioned and 6.5%, but I think it could be better getting those funky fruity esters at a higher temp, when I feel my carboy its cold and were in November, (I live in AUS) So I was considering getting a small heat band off ebay and getting one of these inkbirds so I can keep it at about 28-30° C My question is when you are only heating do you need to use the probe? If not than I don't see this working, it won't fit in the lid of my carboy, (5lt glass carboy/demijohn with rubber stopper and airlock) Cheers 👍🍻

[@FamilyDIY]

If you don't use the probe. It won't heat it to the level you want. Check out my video on using the probe with a carboy. You can get a stopper that allows you to put the probe to enter and stay sealed. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKLMiKt5qc97rrM

[@joang.4430]

Great and thorough information, thanks!

[@FamilyDIY]

Your welcome

[@eseelana5706]

Do you have to set up all settings? Or just 1? For inkbirddl thing

[@FamilyDIY]

Depends on what you are going. I just set the cooling.

[@jarretreil6741]

Awesome video. Thanks pal

[@FamilyDIY]

Thanks! What is your next brew?

[@allanother8427]

Where did you get your probe to put the sensor inside ? Great video

[@FamilyDIY]

Thanks! It is the Homebrew #7 Stopper Thermowell: amzn.to/3broXgJ

[@FamilyDIY]

I also made a video about it, heater and my fermantion chamber. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKLMiKt5qc97rrM

Welcome

[@donnyboy559]

Thank you very much very very helpful

[@KaleidoscopeKara]

Mine came in Celsius and this doesn't help me figure out how to change it from Celsius to Fahrenheit

[@stevenlopes8365]

Great video thanks

[@codycornwell5329]

What was the prob used for liquid

[@FamilyDIY]

The prob is used inside the fermenter to monitor the temperature.

[@joolinoschannel8566]

Excellent thank you

[@FamilyDIY]

You're welcome! What's your favorite thing to brew?

[@leer774]

thanks 👍🏻

[@roofernick1028]

Good video but you should explain that you're setting the degrees for when it goes hot or cold if it goes three degrees up you set it at 3 to kick the cooling on vice versa for the heat. you're not actually setting a temperature you're just changing the degree.

[@roofernick1028]

I'm not that great at explaining.

[@tenniscourtball]

mine won’t go onto heating, won’t even turn on when it’s plugged into the heating socket

[@Inform3dMinds]

But...when you say "plug it here or there" in the beginning, shouldn't you show where on a close frame?

[@3zdavid]

You missed the most important part, after you get all your settings in place you need to hold set for 10 more seconds to lock them in, otherwise it will revert to default.

tysm i got so confused
