Thanks guys! I will be placing an order soon soo helpful!

Hey guys, just wondering if any of my fellow Canadians on here might know of a good website to purchase supplies from? What websites do you use? Any with free shipping or good cheap shipping?

I'm from Newfoundland, temperatures right now drop to freezing cold over night and my basement was around 4-5 degrees Celsius last time I checked! Is this okay for cold crashing?

The guy at my local brew shop recommended that after primary fermentation is complete I add isinglass to carboy then siphon my beer to the carboy and stir gently then let it sit for a week before bottling! So what should I do next time? Just wait for primary fermentation to finish then bottle...

Also this time i noticed after siphoning to the carboy i already have a inch of sediment built up in the bottom! I put the cap on the end of the racking cane.. Do you think it would be okay to double carboy the brew and transfer it back into the bucket after a week and then back to the carboy...

Just a Cooper's Pilsner DIY kit!

Okay so today was the transfer day for my third batch of brew, I transferred it from the primary to secondary fermenter and added the fining solution! I had to stir it in but I forgot to stir gently and gave it a real good stir.. to the point where i got about 1 inch of froth at the head of the...

I dont have a dish washer, and this is what the guy at my brew store reccomended to me, actually on the bag of corn sugar I bought it said put 1 1/3 cup aside for priming! I made a 23L batch

Thanks alot my guy! Big sigh of relief!

So when you add the gelatin after fermenting, do you stir it into your brew or just poor? I feel like it would be a bad idea to stir it! Unless you transfer it to the carboy, then add the gelatin, stir and cold crash? Let it sit for a week for sediment to fallout then proceed to bottle?

Thanks everyone for answering my questions and helping me grow as and inexperienced brewer you guys are the bomb much appreciated friend's! Happy brewing!

I think i might pick up a cheap digital thermometer 🤣 as i have no idea on how to calculate a desired temp! Thanks for the help cheer dude

I bottled my 2nd batch of beer about a week ago, added the recommended amount of priming sugar 1 1/3 cup and its been sitting in my closet at about 24 degrees Celsius but I do not see any bubbles forming inside the brew or at the head of the bottle! It looks flat still to me! I'm kind of worried...

Do yo need to have it at exactly 150 degrees? I do not have a digital thermometer, just a glass thermometer that goes up to 55 degrees Celsius is there a work around for this if you don't have a digital thermometer?

The wine I make ends up being about 6 inches from the opening of the 23L carboy do you think that's too much head space?

So when do you add the bloomed gelatin? Is it after the 7-10 day period of primary fermentation, then let sit in the cold for 2-3 days then siphon into secondary fermenter?

Hello friends! I am a beginner home brewer just looking for an answer to a simple question. I just went out to a Costco Wholesale shop in my area and bought a double pack of cheap wine kits for like 80 CAD to see if I like wine brewing! I just finished the first step/ process of primary...

Okay so my cousin told me once the beer was done fermenting to siphon the beer into a carboy and let it sit for a week to settle and clarify, so i done so and added some isinglass finings as well to help the process along and to have less sediment. So i was told to leave it for a week, However...

Okay so I have a batch of brew on now it is just one of those diy kits that come with a liquid malt extract, It started out great a bubbling like something fierce for two days and now all of a sudden on the third day it's stopped bubbling altogether! Is this normal or do you think the batch is...

Okay guys thanks for your opinions I really appreciate it! How about just regular tap water have you ever tried that would it work the same?
