    Sooo.....I have a unique problem with priming sugar

    Ok, so long story short I messed up and used way too much priming sugar in my latest batch of porter. I was supposed to use about 3/4 cup for my 5 gal batch and I.....um...accidentally used about 2 cups. I've already had one explode on me and tried to open another one that ended up in me...

    Some interesting advice from a brew shop...use a trash can for temp control?

    Hi guys, I just wanted to check with you guys on some info that was passed to me by my local brew suppy store. They told me that when I'm done boiling the wort to go ahead and put the concoction into the fermented with the rest of the steralized water and place the whole thing in a trash can...
