    It fermented for 15 days, i didnt own a hydrometer at the time so i did not take a reading. The temp was constant at 70. I then transferred it a bucket with a 1/3 cup of sugar and 1/3 cup of water that i boiled(and cooled). They had been carbonating for about a week, so I thought theyd be...

    Love the planning your putting into it, 66 seems a little cold. The yeast that generally comes with mr beer says 68-76. The temp inside the fermentor will be warmer then outside air temp well its fermenting(about 5 degrees), so ideally you would want temp around 70. Maybe someone with more...

    Mr Beer - Read all about it and ask questions
