Same here, to me bottling is just part of the experience. I kind of enjoy it.

I thought you had to "kill" the yeast and then back sweeten the skeeter pee? If so how did you carb it? Can you post your recipe?

6 gallons of Coopers Aussie Lager = 14474

That...is...awesome!

Regular white (cane) sugar works fine.

If anyone is looking to unload some bottles in the NE PA (Milford) or NW NJ (Newton) I'm interested. Might even be willing to buy some flip tops.

Wow, a lot of complicated, or should I say over complicated methods here. Since this is your first batch all you need to do is use whatever sanitizer you've got and soak them in it for the proper amount of time. For Starsan and Iodophor that is like 2 minutes and you're ready to bottle. . Then...

I think your math is little off there there....

Girlfriend insists yeast infection is from my beer.

IMHO Just leave it in the primary.

You only buy once if you don't break it five minutes after buying it...which is very likely with a hydrometer. Besides that the additional accuracy isn't really needed for our needs IMHO.

I wouldn't touch it. If it dropped points then it's fermenting regardless if you see activity or not.

You're over thinking this. The amount of water makes little difference as long as you're not using an insanely small amount.
