    Why does my beer taste like cider?

    how long have you let it sit in the bottle also did you individually prime the bottles or prime the whole batch then bottle it? For my beers with sanitation if it was my fault it would have a bad off taste not a sweet off taste. Hoepfully the experts on here can answer because I would like to...

    better bottles

    k so the 6 gallon better bottles, i have to use the 6.5 gallon glass carboy caps, i think the brown ones correct? the orange ones will not work for the 6 gallons?

    better bottles

    Ive searched and maybe just typing it in wrong. Trying to see what carboy caps fit the 6 gallon better bottles. Im assuming its still the orange ones that fit because the 6.5 are alot bigger than that. thx in advance

    keezer conversion

    from what i read and what im going to do is you can caulk the wood to the base and not connect the top to it. just get some foam and line the inside of the collar and it should work good. From what i see if you connect it to the top its gonna create a headache trying to open and take out your...
