- I first saw a Mr. Beer Kit while in Washington DC back in 1995 when I was still in the Army. I took it back to the barracks and it came out pretty good. Then while at Texas A&M I saw a brew store in Bryan Texas (don't know if it is still there) thy were very nice and I started doing partial mash. I think I cooked it up in my apartment and messed the place up. Then I brewed a chocolate stout because my wife and I like to get Celis Raspberry and mix it with the Choc Stout or Youngs, very good holiday/winter beer. I have brewed off and on since then and have just recently been bitten by the home brew bug again.

Well you simply had more fermentable sugars in your wort that the recipe. Either your
efficiency was higher than expected, the mash temps were off. You need to look at your process.
Im not sure how ma...Posted in thread: How long should primary be? on 10-26-2011 at 02:36 PM
How long do you guys keep your beer in primary fermentation?I usually wait at least a week and
check the gravity. I ferment at room temp. Lately I have had allot of activity in my secondary

I didn't notice that this was a secondary ferment. You shouldn't have that much krausen during
secondary. You shouldn't rack off your yeast until you've hit your FG. You can do a small
ferment test wi...Posted in thread: Question about Sediment on Carboy wall on 10-26-2011 at 12:32 PM
That is during secondary? Did you take hydrometer readings to see if it was done fermenting
before you moved it to secondary, just seems like a lot of action for secondary..IMOChad,

Hi All. I noticed some sediment sticking to the walls and ridges on the inside of my glass
carboy during secondary fermentation. It looks like it is falling to the bottom so it might be
normal. Anyone...Posted in thread: Brewer From Houston on 10-26-2011 at 03:02 AM
