props to you.the labels look fantastic! :rockin:

Awesome picture! Looks amazing.....amazingly delicious! Do the kits come with labels?

I've told all of my friends to save their bottles. I think i will go see if i can pick some bottles up from a restaurant soon. Hoppymonkey:Glad to hear this kit comes out well.I think i will do what you did and just flavor half of it.Thanks for the idea! I also think i will try the dishwasher...

Thanks.Do you think if i went to a restaurant or a bar that they would give me used beer/wine bottles? Also..has anyone tried the dishwasher sterilizing method?

Okay thanks.Still a little confused though..how do i know when to bottle? Reach the FG and then wait a few weeks?

okay I will just not use the corona bottles.I may use them for cider.So LiquidCourage said just keep it in the primary for a month...but the kit says 6 weeks.Do you have to keep it in the fermentor for that whole time or do you just test the gravity and when its "dry" you prime/bottle?

Bucket it is.Saving $ is always a plus! ;) I will also be saving my (and my friends) bottles. I think i might find an easy/cheap beer recipe to try a "beer wine" as a test. Question: If this raspberry wheat kit only takes 6 weeks will it need a secondary fermentation?

This will be my first beer but I already make wine. So, I plan to buy a 6.5 gal carboy or bucket,larger siphon,caps/bottles,capper.I have corn sugar I used in my first apfelwein a couple days ago so i can use that to prime. I have a few questions though... 1.For the 6.5 gal fermentor--glass...

Thanks Nurmey! Now...because this only takes 6 weeks and makes 5 gallons (right?) will I just need a 5 gallon carboy,stopper,airlock,and bottling supplies? Or is there other stuff that is needed?

I am new to the whole beer making thing and thought that this would taste good and be easy... http://www.northernbrewer.com/brewing/raspberry-wheat-extract-kit-2.html Is this an easy one to kick things off?

The title says it all. What are your favorite beer recipes scaled down to 1 gallon? I have some empty 1 gallon carboys that need filled! :mug:

Thanks guys!

The title says it all! Any and all help is appreciated. :)

About the blueberry banana wine and I guess just wines in general how do you go about making a recipe? Is there a special SG you want?

I will make sure to not forget the lube!

Thanks for all the info! CandleWineProject: After i make apfelwein I will definitely try to make a cider using just apple juice and yeast.no sugar added.For this cider is apple juice and yeast all you need or could you add some spices in it too? I am also very interested in making a blueberry or...

Thanks pulpfiction32 and CandleWineProject! Are there any other cider recipes that arent to hard to make? I dont have a juicer so that might be a problem. (I plan on buying one soon though)

Thanks for all of the answers CandleWineProject! And don't worry...I will keep asking questions. Actually..... 1.Once fermentation is over and i sweeten it should i bulk age it in a carboy or should i bottle and age? 2.What would the easiest way to bottle wine be? Just siphon it into bottles...

Thanks fireballbrewer and thunder! :)
