I have worked with gas and propane for over 15 yrs. As with many water tanks and kitchen equipment and another systems that can be converted, the only thing that is changed is the size of the orifice in the gas valve. When your installing piping to feed the specific unit, the piping is...

Nice. thanks. trying to get the wife to ok another kit, i will add bucket/bottle warmer on next order. This Site ROCKS:rockin:

Ok. you say being in a secondary for a extended amount of time is ok. Great. i have had a English brown in the secondary for 2 1/2 months, but the temp has fluctuated over that time. I was told by the LHBS to pitch some yeast, prime and bottle. So I came home jumped on here and searched. They...

Awesome. do tell what it tastes like after you grav test. love that beer.

Where you store your bottles during carbonation / conditioning will affect the time to full carbonation, though. The warmer the temps, the faster it conditions. Obviously there's limits to this theory, so don't try to condition your bottles at 100°C in hopes of having conditioned beer in ten...

Have been reading alot about priming sugars and the different products you can use. I am new to all this, this being my second batch, but i am going to prime in the bucket, instead of the Coopers tablets. I read about the yeast doing all the work to get the beer carbonated, and i have a...

Any HBS located close to Dover? I have checked and haven't found one as of yet. Thanks for an help.

Thanks for the info, and putting my mind at ease. Your the best.

I have been mulling over what to do with this Irish stout and was reading about other stouts that have been done, and I keep second guessing the extra 500mg of dextrose I put in there. What will it do to the final product? Will it be close to the desired product, IE. Irish Stout? My first batch...

here that :drunk:

I am new to this and all I see spending money on is more product to brew more beer. But, I wish I had a wife like yours. I catch poo for having to many bottles, to many buckets of fermenting beer, and spending too much time reading this site. Good times man. She deserves a special christmas...

Just finished my first partial Brewers Best kit. Man thats some work. Got 2 batches going, one in secondary and just started fermentation. OG 1.011. Well the waiting game. Thanks for all the info posted. Checked 3 times to makes sure i wasn't jackin something up. :mug: :rockin:

Was wondering if any of these attempts at the car bomb stouts came out with positive results. I just brewed a batch of the Coopers Irish Stout extract kit, and was looking to make something offbeat and different. I read on the can it called for 500mg of dextrose, but was given 1 kg it the kit...

was bored and had some time till the Flyers game came on, so I decided to mix up a Coopers Irish Stout Kit I had. I have been reading about adding some ingredients during the secondary to enhance the flavor. Anyone have any luck with any additions you can pass on. I have a week of fermentation...

Thanks again for all the help. I bottled it up yesterday and everything looks to be just fine. It tasted pretty good for flat beer. Will be testing a week from now, cause i have zero patience, and will update on finished product after 2. Thanks again. James
