    New to the Home Brew; Festa Brew Wheat with Honey!

    I brew these Festa Brew all the time and I do it exactly as per the instructions (I assume you got this from Noble Grape in Nova Scotia.. If not check out there instructions on their site)..

    Carbonating with soda bottles

    Yip Yip.. go ahead.. I do it all the time Well I dont use &up but I use the clear bottles.. same thing.. Just keep it out of the light to prevent skunkyness.. Also (if its a 2L) you will want to drink it pretty quick when you open it to prevent it from getting flat.. Cheers!!!!!!

    Beer Equipment -> Wine Equipment

    I use the same carboys.. I have a different primary bucket because of the smell that seems to stay in it.. besides that all I needed extra was the corker.

    Is this just the way you do it for wine Yooper or do you not use a lid on beer too?..
