Would it be a grain or a lme that I am looking for? I am guessing a grain but I am not surest ideas?

I've been letting it ferment in the bottle for 2 weeks before I drink it then it usually lasts two or three more weeks. I make 8 -1 liter bottles. Should I wait 4 weeks to drink and put in fridge at 4 weeks?

I am curious if I can put my newly bottled beer into the fridge. Last time I brewed I put a few bottles in the fridge and when I went to drink it there wasn't any head really. The ones that were not in the fridge when opened had GREAT head and body. Thanks!

I want to slowly start buying all grain equipment. I have my neighbor hooked on this now too. We have been helping each other but we really need to figure out how to do all grain.... Step by step. I have a brewmasters bible book maybe that will help me.

One batch I didn't use a sugar solution and it was not carbonated right then the second one was with a friend and his was used and we must not have cleaned it well enough because it got a nasty infection. You live and you learn!

i had one batch I was doing with a friend that got infected but every batch we have done since has been PERFECT thanks for the help!

I am not sure if any one really cares for a follow up but I did the sugar solution and it worked out amazingly. It did seem a little bit watered down. But i think 2 cups is to much water for my 8 liters of beer. I am going to try 1 cup next time but overall the sugar solution worked out GREAT...

I know that but you need certain amounts of each ingredient and that seems like the difficult part to figure out. Its gotta be much harder than the mr beer its I am doing now and I have even screwed that up twice out of 4 times I have brewed.

This may have been said earlier but I have not read all the pages but what program or site did everyone use?

ok well i want to learn how to make wort eventually but I am not sure if I am ready for that yet. Unless its not as hard as everyone makes it seem.

Ok may be another dumb question of mine but can I use extracts with carboys? I am pretty sure I can but I dont want to buy a kit and not be able to use it with extracts. Eventually I want to get away from extracts but as of right now I want to work my way to it. This is the kit I am looking to...

What are your favorite extracts? Where did you get it? Did it come with yeast or did you have to get it separate? How long did each stage take? Lets get some opinions from everyone!

If this is good I might get it myself

Where is a good place/website to buy good equipment for a good deal? I am wanting everything a carboy, bottles, brew kettles and pots, wort chillers, and burners. I am not some huge brewer just want the right stuff. Right now I use all Mr. Beer products. Thanks

I didn't know what that product was and what it did that's why I am asking so please before you try to make me out to be an idiot I am new to this and don't know ok

So if you use star San don't rinse it out after?

I am just curious about how everyone sanitizes and what methods work and what doesn't. Thanks!

I haven't bottled any of it and Im guessing its the yeast that has settled at the bottom. I was told that yeast was needed to carbonate the beer in the bottles so I wasn't sure if I was doing it wrong not not

Ok on my first batch I head some with head some without on my new batch I think I made the same mistake and just realized why. Am I supposed to put the "gunk" on the bottom of my fermenter into the bottles? Or do I leave that out? This sounds like it is a dumb question I just want to see what...
