  I have a 23 liter batch of ale in primary fermentation right now and I noticed a bit of a
  problem. For 2 days it wouldn't bubble, then I realized I was using a hack job bung and my
  airlock was way ove...

• Posted in thread: Question about Coopers Real Ale kit on 01-11-2013 at 02:02 AM
  Well, I ended up more or less doing it as instructed. Rather than doing 20 liters in the
  demijohn and 2 liters in the pot to make the wort I did 18/4 so the wort would be thinner and
  less likely to ca...

  So my first two brews were all grain one gallon kits, one turned out "interestingly" and the
  other is still aging but I don't have high hopes for it. At the suggestion of my LHBS I picked
  up a Coopers...

  I just was struck by a few questions regarding wood chips this morning.First, I've got a dubbel

  I'm pretty sure this will be my last 1 gallon batch. Good to know I can sanitize and drop the
  hydrometer right in there.

  That sounds like a great idea. When I used wood chips in a Dubbel I'm fermenting I soaked them
  in whiskey overnight and added them to the boil. I'm not sure if you'd need the whole week for
  the chips ...

  That is correct Jon. A hydrometer is going to be on my list of goodies to pick up. Hopefully my
  home brew shop is open for boxing day.

  There is a pretty good looking home brew shop within 20 km of my house and another on my route
  home from work. I'm putting together a shopping list of things to pick up on my next stop.I
  figured with ...

  I wish I could be specific with the ingredients, but it was a premade mix. All I can say with
  certainty is that it's made with Columbus and Cascade hops. I'm not sure what yeast or what
  kinds of barle...
