    moving to 5 a gallon carboy

    can't afford a decent kettle right now, I bought two cheap 12 quart pots, and a 6.5 gallon brew bucket. I will look into a decent kettle once I get my tax return, cheers

    Batch did not carbonate

    I'm really green at brewing, has it been refrigerated? if it's been refrigerated I'm sure all the yeast is dead but I know they sell carbonation tablets on amazon. maybe add a few per bottle and then wait another two weeks. cheers

    moving to 5 a gallon carboy

    thank you all for the wealth of information, I'm definitely gonna get a brew bucket instead. just need some decent pots and maybe grab a longer racking cane. btw the shelf is a closet shelf that's where I've done my brewing and I'm gonna find a decent way to reinforce the shelf through the wall...

    moving to 5 a gallon carboy

    thank you, I guess I didn't think it through enough. I will try smaller brew pots. I was gonna use a plastic generic 5 gallon water jug, the ones you see at office water coolers. it's for my beer wort, as I wanna brew bigger batches. I was gonna use it as my carboy but for the time being and am...

    moving to 5 a gallon carboy

    I am gonna try to purchase a 5 gallon plastic empty water jug tomorrow. I'm probably gonna need a plug for the new carboy, that works with my current tubing and airlock. I will also need a deeper racking cane. I am gonna reinforce my shelf and maybe buy a 5 gallon cooking pot, or maybe two 2.5...

    need help saving a 1 gallon ipa batch

    yeah it was originally a craft a brew recipe single hop ipa. I added an extra 2 teaspoons of table sugar and 8.5 grams of cannabis in a brew bag. I used the yeast it came with plus 20 grams of super yeast x-press. it's gonna be "interesting" how this mess turns out. cheers

    need help saving a 1 gallon ipa batch

    I had a few too many when I pitched the yeast. I was convinced the yeast was dead and ended up adding a stupid amount of the only other yeast I had on hand. I probably ruined it all. I guess I learned a lesson. anyway it's overly active right now. I guess I'll leave it be and see if I get...
