I appreciate it thanks. That's at least a part if why I asked my initial question, I'm inclined to think that I might as well just let it "condition" in the carboy. ...think I'll wait around a year or whatever and then bottle it and maybe wait another month or so for safe keeping. ?

Thank you for your time and advice MB.

Thanks so much everyone, you've taught me a lot, you're all invited for a glass in a year! ..I knew I could count in this forum when it mattered. ....didn't think my attitude was flippant but, oh well.

Details, schmetails, it will be apparent I don't know what I'm doing when I say What is gross lees? 2 disgusting guys named Lee? I'll presume some sort of sediment? Anyway with my bad eyesight and the refractometer my original Brix was 27 (ish) and now reads 10 (ish). Brewed(?) on 7/1 with 18...

Brewed my first ever Mead (non sparkling sack mead .. no fruit or anything)... about 6 weeks ago, currently sitting in secondary fermenter. Visible airlock activity stopped after 4 weeks or so. I'm planning on being patient and waiting a year or something but, I'm not really sure when to bottle...

Thank you so much ....a big help! Have a great holiday!

I know I'm leaving myself wide open on this one...looking for great mini mash (can mash lots of grains...big cooler tun...can boil 4 1/2 Gal) recipe for a simple Imperial Oatmeal Stout.

Thank you all ....good advice.

Planning a mini mash "blonde ale" and considering adding maltose dextrin for body ...? When do I add it in the boil?

Try Tenaya Creek on Tenaya and Cheyenne

The Draft House on Rancho my favorite Hang! Only thing about Sin City......plastic cups!

Thank you all!!

You are something else. Thank you so much! All I can say is Duh!

I am clueless ....maybe I should whip out the ole Hydrometer?
