First fermentation using my brewpi from the beginning, and I am wondering why the compressor isn’t cooling down to fridge setpoint? Before I pitched the yeast it was holding the beer steady at setpoint really well, now it isn’t cooling down to where it needs to go so the temp is a little high. Here is my build Fermentation chamber build (Vissani MVWC52B wine cooler hack)
