nope i did everything right according to the recipe. the recipe said it would be between 5% and 5.5%. my og reading was 990 my final was 995

Ok honestly I really don't care about grammar but ok.no I was sober. I opened one to taste it and see if it was ready. It was ready and everything was good so I began to drink a few but to no avail i felt nothing no buzz or nothing

ok before i bottled it was at 5% and its bottled for 2 weeks and id say its done carbonating but iv drank 8 beers and nothing no buzz nothing im sober as can be

ok i had it in the bottles for two weeks now and before i put into bottles it was at 5% does this percentage change any while bottling

how do you know your beer is carbonating

yea let me know cause thats my only concern

Dr. pepper would also work for a stout. so i just have to make sure there is a good seal

iv seen plastic beer twist bottles for sale and people use them in videos so i was wondering is you could use a regular old pop bottles after cleaning them

well do i even really need to add it

specialty grains caramel roasted barley dark chocolate fermentables special dark lme pilsen lme lactose maltodextrin 1 yeast 2 hops bittering and aroma

this is my first time brewing and im brewing a milk stout from extract i followed directions to a T but so far it doesnt say any thing about adding the maltodextrin
