OK. it came out well. nice drop. went through 3 liters myself in the first session. now to try the boiling and adding hops at different timings. one thing I still don't understand how to do is the boiling part. how many liters should i be boiling with the liquid extract and added malt? i want to...
im still on the liquid malt extract brewing ( first ever brew going for second week in the bottles ) . is it possible to get close by using kits? i would love to get close to the stone and wood taste but i dont have an idea of how to get to it using cans. one day ill be brave enough to go all...
If the reading is still at 1.012 of Saturday then I will bottle it on Sunday. I raised the temperature a bit to 20C.
Thanks for all the advice so far. Almost tipped the lot on the lawn this afternoon.
Can't wait for the next batch to go in.
hi all, getting worried now. i noticed that the wort in the fermenter never formed a big krausen ring. it was fementing - lots of bubbles through the airlock in the first couple of days. no ring present. sg is at 1.012 ? is it a waste ?
got one of those! i have a sg of 1.012 measured yesterday. if im going to use carbonation drops, how long can i leave the wort in the fermenter before i should bottle? wont the yeast stop its work once all the wort has been used? 7 days ? or when the sg stays at 1.012 for a day or two?
Getting ready to bottle. Will check sg in the morning. Now for a silly question. How much do I put in the 740 ml pet bottle. I'm going to use coopers carbonation drop. Are they any good?
