Ive got a bunch of bottles to give out. I live in noblesville.
3 coke flats of long necks about 30 to each flat
1 flat of half long necks and half stubbies
case(24) of Bass with the double lip. They work good if you use a bench capper.
All have been rinsed and most delabeled.
Shoot...
I drink all of mine in the name of science. I think it's important to keep track of the taste as it ferments. For example if I'm getting some off flavors it's usually due to too warm of fermentation So I start up the old swamp cooler
Honestly the whole ball lock easier to vent is BS! It's not big deal to press down on the gas poppet of a pin lock keg to vent it. It all really comes down to number/ size and price. For my keezer the size didn't matter I was going to get 5 plus 20# co2 no matter which so it came down to price...
Smokinghole I feel your pain! Mine has come to a halt at 1.044 from and OG of 1.114. Its right at 9% ABV but the taste is just a little to sweet. Im about to keg a pale and will prob just rack onto the yeast cake to see if I can get down to the mid 30's.:confused:
We need some more info.
Extract or AG?
Mash temp?
Liquid or dry yeast? Starter?
Try to gently swirl to get yeast back in suspension and ramp up temp to 70-72
So I just finished my batch. My OG ended up at 1.158 and FG at 1.011 for 19% ABV. I tasted my hydro sample and was hit with a ton of sweetness up front. I have to assume its that way for everyone due to the amount of sugar added.
My question for those further along: Does this sweetness die...
