No rinse agent.

Wheat MDE. I'll have to look into that. That may be something I'll try next time. Thanks. :)

I do notice after 2 weeks it has a decent froth developing, and yes after 4 weeks is best.

My basement is cool, about 62F.

However, I may often have some bottles sitting for up to 6 weeks...

I want more head!!!

Ok, all jokes aside.

Really, I think because I live at sea level, the head from my brewing just doesn't seem to be as good as I want it. I do get some decent foam, but for some reason, it doesn't...

Yeah, they're Avery labels. If they're that much of a problem, I probably won't bother. Thanks.

Address labels?

I've got a pack of 8160 address labels I found in my closet. Never use them. I thought maybe I could use them for a batch of mext brew, as sort of a smaller less "in your face" kind of label. They...

I agree, on the neck would be rather ominous.

You'll scare little kids away if you put a big faded/shady picture of Leatherface on the main label. :eek:

Ok, it is a 6.5 gallon carboy, because there's plenty of space on top when it fill it with 5 gallons of beer. I just wasn't sure if losing this muich beer was normal or not.

No, I don't mind the sediment. Only on ocassion, I like to take some with me on vacation in the summer, etc, and haul lots of beer in the cooler. Of course when packed in with ice, the bottles fall...

How much loss from the Primary?

When you brew a heavier ale, like a Scotch Ale for example, in a 5 gal carboy, how much would you expect if any beer to loose from any overflow from excessive bubbling? Is it normal for this to...

Aside of bottling from a pressurized keg, is there anyway to bottle without getting the sediment on the bottom?

I would assume no, since you need some sort of sugar for the yeast to consume, and...

Ok, I only asked this because I added the water, when normally I wouldn't, and thought maybe a little bacteria from the water may have caused a bit of excess foaming in the second rack. But, it...

Added water when racking.
