This is my first full boil. I'm gonna start with around 6 gals of water. My question is when I pour into the primary if I'm a little short of 5 gals can I just add water or will that affect anything?
Thanks in advance.

I've made several batches of beer now but this is the first to taste like this. It was a jai alai clone. It tasted great for the first month and then 2 or 3 months later tasted very hot any suggestions? I always follow the temps during brewing and fermentation.
I'm dry hopping using leaf hops for the first time. My question is when I go to keg can I squeeze the beer out of the hop leaves that are in the muslin bags?
I have a haier duel tap kegerator with there standard faucets and shanks. I was wondering I the perlick faucet would fit on the shanks that are already on my kegerator. Thanks.
I ordered a beer kit and when it came in the activator pack was already smacked. Will it be ok if I'm not going to brew for about a week or should I go to the LHBS and buy an unsmacked pack. Thanks.
I made a Lagunitas IPA clone using DME as a primer. I followed beersmith for the amounts but its going on 8 weeks and still no carb. What I was wondering is can I empty the bottles into a corny and force carbonate and is there anything I should worry about. The beer tastes great but flat. Thanks...
I've never used them before i know the beer needs to be cold. My question is can a siphon my beer into the kegs stick them in my kegerator and use the gelatin in the kegs instead of a secondary?
Thanks.
This is my first time using DME as a primer. I let my bottles sit for 3 weeks plus 1 week in the fridge but beer is still flat. Does DME take longer to carbonate? Thanks for the help.
I have 2 corny kegs with a y splitter and cut of valves. This is my first time force carbing can I rove carb both at the same time by opening up both lines?
I put my recipe into beersmith and its calling for 15 psi to force carb the beer. My question is how many days do I force carb I can't find it anywhere in the program. Most people say to put 30 psi on it for a day or so but 15 psi for how many days? Thanks.
Everything was going well I dry hopped and was about to bottle when I saw this? I've never saw this before any help would be appreciated. This is also my first time dry hopping.
I just got a 6.7 cu ft kegerator first question is do you think I can fit 3 cornies in there plus the co2 tank. Of so I'm ordering an new tower either a 2 or 3 tap tower. Other then my first question the major one is how do I connect everything together I was looking into getting a 3 way...
I'm looking at a kenmore with new lines, new tap tower, dual pressure gauge, and full co2 tank.
Or a danby 4.4 cu ft standard kegerator not sure if it comes with the gauge or the co2 tank. Thanks. Kenmore is $200 and danby is $100.
