    Home brewing in Mississippi

    I am in the process of determining if I want to move to Jackson, Mississippi for a job relocation. I know home brewing is not technically legal in Mississippi.

    Over carbonation

    I batch carbonate and have over carbonated my kolsch. Everything else was fine except the carbonation slightly overwhelms the taste of the kolsch. I believe I read where you can uncap the bottles and cap them again to help this. Has anyone tried this and will the beer have adequate...

    Ported Better Bottles

    I have been looking at the 6 gallon ported Better Bottles and I am curious. Can you use the port and some tubing to drain directly into your bottling bucket instead of racking into the bucket? Or is the level of the yeast cake and other sediment too high to do so?
