iGulu S1 All-In-One Automated Home Craft Beer Brewer

Updated firmware, the APP works well. I am new to beer brewing and expecting my first brew from S1 in a few days,so far it looks very promising: the temperature has been accurate and psi level is normal. I lifted the pressure vale and it certainly smells goooood!

I love this micro-brewery system. It is easy to set up and use. Just follow the steps as shown. It makes about one US Gallon of the "Devils Brews", and does it cleanly. I also own the Pinter Gen-3. Both are simple to use, this S1 is a bit simpler, as it chills the beer by itself. It is not cheap in price, but you will get what you pay for. In this case, that is a great thing.

This compact brewer allows home made beer (and theoretically mead). The device is self contained, requiring 1 gallon (116 ounces) of distilled water, 120v ac, a brew kit, and connection to a 2.4 wifi.

Unpacking and setup is easy, though the instruction manual is sparse. Strongly recommend viewing a YouTube video prior to operating the first time. After connecting to the internet (and possibly upgrading the firmware), the brewing instructions (temperature, duration, etc.) are downloaded using an RFID tag that comes with each brew kit. (The programing could also be done via app, though the documentation and settings were to sparse in the initial use.)

The included brew kit (Heffenwisen or German Wheat Beer) will take 11 days to complete the cycle. There are many different packs available, each costing about $20 for a gallon of liquid heaven.

The brewer stands 22" tall, about 12" wide and deep. While brewing there is a low volume fan running, not really noticeable. There is an option to attach C02 which will carbonate the beer after fermentation, again, the instructions for how to obtain the set up and connect it was lacking.

Overall easy to use, allows custom brewing or from following the manufacturer's kit. In theory it can also make mead, though an internet search did not quickly identify any recipe or kit. It will take 11 days for the initial batch to be done, will update the results then.
