Hello all! I am wondering if someone can help me figure out what it happening with my beer. I bottled one in a clear bottle so I could take a good photo, but so far all four of my batches (2 beer/2 cider) have had something like this happen. The middle of the beer is crystal clear, but there...

I just bottled a side-by-side comparison with EC1118 with two different OGs 1054 and 1064, starting with a gallon of cheap store bought juice, 1 tsp LC carlson yeast nutrient, and brown sugar to bump the OG in each of 4-1 gal fermenters. EC1118 fermented to 0.998 and Safcider ended at 1.000. I...

I'm excited to see how it tastes! I have some empty 1 gal fermenters I need to fill.

I bottled it and it sat in my basement for 2 weeks at about 64 degrees. I let them sit at 64 for another week and I am going to take a look today. Should they sit in the fridge now for a few weeks?

How cloudy are your wheat beers when you start bottle conditioning? I am relatively new to brewing and this is a question I am trying to answer. Do you end up with a bunch of sediment on the bottom of the bottle?

I bottled my first batch of an EPA a few weeks ago. Cracking the first bottle I realized it didn't clarify as much as I thought it would in the bottle. In fact, it might be cloudier now than it was before I bottled it. It taste great, but it certainly doesn't look very palatable. Is this batch...

I am wondering about the "ideal" time spent on the primary cake after active fermentation has ended - I'm sure this varies for beer varieties, and definitely differs with ciders. I'm relatively new and it sounds like ciders are taken off the cake fairly quickly after primary fermentation ends...

I don't have a lot of super scientific details, but I am in the process of doing a side-by-side comparison with EC1118 with two different OGs 1054 and 1064, starting with a gallon of cheap store bought juice, 1 tsp LC carlson yeast nutrient, and brown sugar to bump the OG in each of 4-1 gal...
