That’s because most people don’t balance their system. They have a 2 foot beverage line and the only way to get it to pour without foam is backing the pressure way off to like 2-5 psi. You should be able to pour at serving pressure (12psi or so depending on c02 volumes) and get a perfect pour...

Be careful with the extract. I used a raspberry extract to make a raspberry wheat beer last year. I only added 1oz to five gallons and it was not very appetizing. It was a good beer with a fake raspberry flavor. Even just with one oz.

I cold crash in my primary fermenter for a couple days. Then transfer to keg. I add gelatin on top of beer. Purge head space and usually shake keg at 30psi for 2 min 30 seconds to get is somewhat carbed. I then leave the 30 psi (pressure off just don’t purge) for a few hours. Then I purge it...

Do a hydrometer test if you think it’s stalled. Sounds normal to me though. I always just shake my buckets for maybe 10 minutes total (couple at a time while I clean up) then pitch and seal up. Usually have good fermentation going within 24 hours. Usually 8-12

Let it sit cold for a few days/a week. Pour out the first pint or so that has debris in it. After that it should be clear until you disturb the keg.

Pay off every dollar of debt you have before you buy any “toys” or do anything beyond what’s imperative to stay alive. After that you can buy whatever you want. Having debt, especially debt you’re paying interest on makes zero sense. Not paying extra to get rid of debt and instead buying “toys”...

I generally never touch it any sooner than about a month. I let it sit on the yeast then cold crash for 2 days or so then keg it, carb and drink at around the 1month- 5 week mark.

Should be fine.

Just brewed up our Pumpkin Ale last week. Will be ready in September!

Just bought 3LBS on Amazon for $11.99. I agree as stated above, buy small bags unless you're going to go through a lot of it quickly.

Love my Edgestar. Makes homebrewing so much less work. I usually carb by setting pressure to ~30 psi and roll back and forth on its side gently for 2min 45 seconds. I then turn off pressure and let it sit with 30 psi on it for a few hours (for it to settle). Then bleed down and set to 8-10 psi...
