I've added a brew day and saved. I can find that I have an ongoing brew session, but how do I actually find the brewing tips/stages/timer?

You might have selected the Grainfather (Manual) for your brewing system. You will not be able to see the auto mode with the timer and messaging system in manual mode.

Please select the correct system that you are using. For example, Grainfather Bluetooth 220v/110v.
