Yes water corrected first. Full bodied but 1023 a bit full don't you think?

Hi all. So the last couple of beers I have been aiming for more body and trying to mash at 68-69 c (154-156f) and the recipe been using has got 1051 hydro reading. The beers didn't or haven't fermented below 1023. They taste very full bodied. The strike water was 75 c (167f) and takes few...

is there something missing inside the bell as my last brew didn't carb

Hello, my last brew is still flat and I know it carbonated as 2 bottles were with the grolch style wired caps and they were carved up good but the rest are still flat.

So the missus wants me to make her a beer she would like, I'm thinking a wheat with orange peel and ginger in the fermentors the slight flavouring. Anyone have any experience with these 2 ingredients as in how much to use so the flavouring is there but is not overpowering?

Hello, I'm checking my cider every couple of days with hydrometer, I want it finished around 1012, I'm aware that potasium sorbate doesn't kill the yeast, that it merely halts the reproduction, if I put in potasium sorbate does the live yeast have enough cells to bring down more points on the...
