Money and space. Getting ready to make wine shortly, but would like to crank out a quick beer first.

I want to brew now, but don't like the trouble (or have the time) to swap out ice bottles, etc in a swamp bucket. Is there a beer I can make in a bucket of water and forget it for a week?

I made it from a kit. www.homebrewden.com. It's called Double Vision IPA. I'll post up the recipe when I have a minute.

Sitting here drinking one of these, never tried it before, but kinda pumped because my flat beer I'm waiting to carb up taste exactly like this. Only diff is this stuff is 6% and mine is measuring up at 9%.

I jsut want to make an ale at room temp. Don't have a fridge or swamp bucket.

Pardon my newness, but what's a Heffe?

While I'm waiting on my "Big Beer" as it was described to carb up, who has a suggestion for a really quick beer I can make to hold me over? I still want something that tastes good, but will make and carb up fast.

So by "big boisterous Big Beer" I take it that this should be a good brew when done?

Thanks all. I was starting to sweat, but I feel better about it now. I need to find something that carbs up really quick now to get me through the wait. Any suggestions for a good quick brew ale?

Really sorry if anyone took offense to my "I didn't forget the sugar" statement, in no way did I mean to sound flippant. I just meant that I didn't forget to add the sugar. I bought this kit called Double Vision Imperial IPA from the HomeBrew Den here. The OG was 1.092 and the final was...

I didn't forget the sugar.

I've always rushed my beer in the past and wanted this to be more clear with less sediment. It's sitting in a 73* temp room, so should be warm enough. It spent a week in the bucket then two in carboys before I bottled it.

This is my 4th batch of beer and it's flat. Made a dark ale and followed directions to a "T". I took my time and racked it three times before I bottled. It's been about 3 weeks since I bottled and still flat as a 2x4. Worst part is that I spent $50 on this kit.
