HI Guys,
i am brand new to the forum and relatively new to brewing so please bear with me on this, I have done a few home brews from kits and now im moving onto extract brewing and i am reading a lot of stories on secondary fermentation, some people saying its worth it some people saying its not.
I am planning to give it a go, but also wanted to hear people opinions, i'm planning on brewing quite a light session ale something cool, crisp, clean and refreshing for a warm Aussie day in the sun.
My second questions is carbonation, up until now i have been using the carbonation tablets in my bottles, i do not have a kegging system, straight from the fermenter into the bottle.
I have just read that i should put a priming solution into the secondary fermenter before i rack my beer but this is not for carbonation but for secondary fermentation, would i need to add another priming solution to the beer again to carbonate before i bottle? What is the best way to approach this?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
