Everything about fermentation, conditioning, and carbonation of your beer
Fermentation is where the magic happens in brewing, where sweet wort becomes beer. Your Smart Keg, fermentation is automatically controlled and monitored to give you consistent, high-quality results with less guesswork. Fermentation is the process wh
Use this schedule when you’re not sure what to select—it's optimized for clean, balanced beers using standard ale yeast. This timeline aligns with how Exobrew automates each stage of fermentation, while still allowing for future fine-tuning. Target w
Looking to go beyond the default fermentation schedule? Here are advanced fermentation profiles tailored for popular beer styles. Each one adjusts temperature and timing to match yeast performance, flavor development, and clarity needs. Yeast Type: L
Conditioning and carbonation are the finishing phases in your brewing process—where beer transforms from “almost ready” to crisp, apparent, fizzy perfection. Whether you're using the Smart Keg or bottling manually, this guide explains everything you

Recommended for aggressive yeast activity. Some beer styles and yeast strains ferment more vigorously than others. When fermentation gets wild, using a blow-off tube instead of a standard airlock helps protect your equipment, prevent clogs, and simpl

There is most likely nothing wrong with your Smart Keg. If your keg is full, it will cool your beer down to 62-66℃ below the ambient temperature. In warmer climates, it may not reach this target temperature, especially in environments exceeding 82℃.
Our production team has also noticed this issue, which affects approximately 20% of the Smart Kegs. While this issue won't hinder brewing functionality, it does affect the aesthetics of the keg. If you would like a replacement, please inform us, and
You've discovered a bug – hooray! The system is currently in idle mode and cannot provide action steps on what to do next. However, there's no need to worry about your brew, as the system remembers where it left off. While this doesn't happen often,
