Hey,
I'm doing a biology lab on the amount of sugar present in a potato. My idea was to do a vodka like potato mash and then measure the gravity of it. Is there any formula to convert specific gravity to total amount of sugar present in the solution?
Thanks :)
Thanks a lot for your help, just two more questions. How come the O.G was 1.066 and how long do you think a pilsner with a good starter should take to ferment?
The recipe is a Czech pilsner,
4300g Pilsner Malt
Tettnanger (3.5%) 80g/90 min
Tettnanger (3.5%) 20g/45 min
Tettnanger (3.5%) 10g/ 15 min
Mash:
50˚C / 20 min
62˚C / 30 min
70˚C / 30 min
Yeast: Wyeast 2007 Pilsn Lager
Fermentation temps: 9˚C
No Aeration
Hello,
I brewed around 4 All Grain pilsners and each time the fermentation wasn't fast enough and stopped at around 1.021 Sg. The original gravity was 1.055 sg but it took around 3 weeks to get down to 1.021. On my last brew I followed every step and for some reason the og was 1.065 but it...
I haven't made it yet, I'm just trying to get all the info before brewing. If possible I wouldn't want to buy all the equipment because it seems quite expensive. If nothing works I think I'll use the Paintball CO2 tanks and carbonate them with those.
Thanks for all your help
Hello,
I'm brewing a maltzbeer which is a german beer for kids, it's non alcoholic and sweet. You brew it the same way as a normal beer only after a day of it fermenting you kill the yeast. My problem is, that since you killed the yeast adding sugar to it wouldn't help it carbonate. You could...

That recipe looks really good, sadly I would have to order half of the ingredients online, my local brew shop doesn't have Caramunich Malt and Hallertauer Hops :( I'm making mine with Pilsner Malt, Tettnang Hops and Bavarian Lager yeast.
