Only bottled it a few weeks ago, so I haven't tasted it. I was going to try this bottle in a few more weeks, mainly to see if the carbonation was working.

I made a ginger cyser a few months ago and recently moved the brew to bottles. I bottle conditioned by dissolving about 3/4 of a cup of sugar in some cyser and adding it back to the mix before bottling. Now there has been a strange sediment settling on the bottoms of all my bottles. I' concern...

Thanks guys, I ended up going with kent golding, since it seemed to fit closest (of the selection at my local brew store) to the earthy woody description.

I have a week old brown ale I'm fixing to move into the secondary. My roommate and co-brewer is a pretty big fan of hop flavor and would like to dry hop in the secondary. I, on the other hand, want to make sure this remains a fairly balanced brew and that the malt character is still the...

I started brewing recently and have brewed several extract brews, cider and mead. The brews have all turned out well, but the ciders and mead were on the dry side. That's o.k. with me personally because I like them dry, but my friends in family generally like them sweeter. I was wondering how...

Thanks. Are these acetobacters dangerous. And yeah I put the lids on pretty tight. Also I maybe should have mentioned there were no camden tablets in this brew.

it had been on the primary for about a month. And so far it has spent two weeks in the non airlocked jars.

I recently brewed several gallons of cider. I do not yet have a carboy so I put it in mason jars to try to get it off the yeast. These jars have no airlock and are no sealed. It has been sitting for about two weeks, and I am worried it may be turning to vinigar. I was wondering if these...

I have a question. I remeber doing and experiment in elementary school in which we froze water in a mason jar and, because it is a polar molecule, it expanded and broke the glass. I was wondering if I would run into the same problem in this case, and if so how do I avoid it?
