• Posted in thread: Longest possible co2 generation on 05-11-2013 at 04:02 AM
  Sounds like your making some undrinkable stuff. Champagne yeast can ferment up to about 16% abv
  or so if it has enough sugars, most likely less than that in your case given the lack of
  nutrients in yo...

  Okay.. You have me puzzled, what lives in your fish tank that needs co2? Is it plants? I have
  been looking into setting up a little guppy tank for a while and I don't think those little
  fellers want c...

  If in doubt... She checked you out... That's my motto and because I'm married and don't have to
  worry about that stuff, I'm pretty sure I'm hot sheet. I'm just sayin... You must be too!

• Posted in thread: Thermometer fail when cooling wort on 04-29-2013 at 04:15 AM
  What was your method for chilling your wort and how long did you do it? If your worried about

• Posted in thread: stuck fermentation from s05 in cider on 04-28-2013 at 05:49 AM
  I understand your current gravity is 1.022. What was your OG? I think S-05 lives to about
  12%abv so I'm curious to see where your abv is at now. If that is well under 12% then maybe the
  cider needs so...

  You could add sugar to taste and then refrigerate the cider to prevent renewed fermentation.
  There are other options as well in regards to using sorbate or artificial sweeteners that
  yeasties don't li...

• Posted in thread: I didn't dramatize my blow off tube on 04-28-2013 at 05:09 AM
  I figure pulling it off and sanitizing it pretty quick couldnt hurt anything. Sounds like you
  have a strong fermentation going so I'm sure the good yeasts have quite a head start on any
  unwanted bugge...

  That sounds pretty good too. I wonder if these kits get better with age or if they're better
  young? I had heard that some fruit wines are better early on.

  Awesome! I ordered it and am looking forward to making it. Got it off Amazon as well. I'm
  getting interested in beer these days but I want to keep something around that my wife will
  drink (I consider ...
