Thanks a lot :mug:

Hey, I'm doing a biology lab on the amount of sugar present in a potato. My idea was to do a vodka like potato mash and then measure the gravity of it. Is there any formula to convert specific gravity to total amount of sugar present in the solution? Thanks :)

Okay thanks a lot for all the help :D

Thanks a lot for your help, just two more questions. How come the O.G was 1.066 and how long do you think a pilsner with a good starter should take to ferment?

The recipe is a Czech pilsner, 4300g Pilsner Malt Tettnanger (3.5%) 80g/90 min Tettnanger (3.5%) 20g/45 min Tettnanger (3.5%) 10g/ 15 min Mash: 50˚C / 20 min 62˚C / 30 min 70˚C / 30 min Yeast: Wyeast 2007 Pilsn Lager Fermentation temps: 9˚C No Aeration

Hello, I brewed around 4 All Grain pilsners and each time the fermentation wasn't fast enough and stopped at around 1.021 Sg. The original gravity was 1.055 sg but it took around 3 weeks to get down to 1.021. On my last brew I followed every step and for some reason the og was 1.065 but it...

Thanks a lot for all your help, I'll try this :D

I haven't made it yet, I'm just trying to get all the info before brewing. If possible I wouldn't want to buy all the equipment because it seems quite expensive. If nothing works I think I'll use the Paintball CO2 tanks and carbonate them with those. Thanks for all your help

Would it work if I bottled the maltzbier waited a couple of days and then killed the yeast? Also how much alcohol would the yeast make in a few days?

Okay, thanks a lot for your help

Hello, I'm brewing a maltzbeer which is a german beer for kids, it's non alcoholic and sweet. You brew it the same way as a normal beer only after a day of it fermenting you kill the yeast. My problem is, that since you killed the yeast adding sugar to it wouldn't help it carbonate. You could...

Great, thanks a lot for the fast response!

Hey I was fermenting a wheat beer and after 2 days the foam disappeared. Is that normal? Thanks a lot

That recipe looks really good, sadly I would have to order half of the ingredients online, my local brew shop doesn't have Caramunich Malt and Hallertauer Hops :( I'm making mine with Pilsner Malt, Tettnang Hops and Bavarian Lager yeast.

Haha, I use gallons because a lot of the brewing stuff is in gallons :D Thanks a lot for your help.

Okay great. One more question, in my first brew a lot of water evaporated and I ended up with 2.5L of beer. Can you have too much air in you Carboy?

Sweet, Thanks a lot for the help!:tank:

I have a 3.17 Gallon Carboy, I wanted to start small. How long would it take a lager to ferment?

Hello, this is my first post on this forum. I want to try to make a Vienna Lager. On the recipe it says to ferment in primary until fermentation is finished then to transfer to a carboy and lager in a fridge for 3 weeks. So my question is what is the difference between a primary fermenter and a...
