It is a metal cap. So as long as I seal it right after I pour it into the growler, it should stay good for at least a day probably? We will probably drink it the same night. Thanks.

Hello all. If I put some of my home brew from my corny keg into a growler and keep it on ice, how long will it take for the beer to go flat? We want to take some beer camping and dont want to have to take the keg/c02 tank and all that stuff. Thank you! Aaron

It is fermenting at a warmer temperature actually. Ive done this same batch before but with only 2.2 lbs of sugar.

Hello. I started a batch of american style light lager 5 days ago and it is still bubbling quite a bit and seems a lot more "cloudy" than usual. I used 3 lbs of sugar this time instead of 5 cups like in the last. Is it just taking longer to ferment due to that? Is the cloudiness just due to...

Cucumber makes a very good and tasty beer, have made one before. Just not with this type of malt.

Sorry sent that to soon. Do you suggest a different type of light beer that I should use for a cucumber beer?

Ok. Would you suggest a different type of lihjt beer

Yes please. I know sometimes people recommend dextrose for certain beers and SDM for others. Thank you.

I already know how to get the cucumber flavor in the beer, using fresh cucumbers after fermentation. Just wondering if it is best to use dextrose or spray dry malt with this kind of beer while making the wort? Thanks Aaron

Hello all. I am going to brew an American Style Light Beer and add some cucumber flavor to it. Would it best to use dextrose or spray dry malt, and about how much? Just curious as to the pros/cons/benefits of using one over the other for this type of beer. Any feedback is greatly...

The room temp where it is fermenting probably is in the 66-70 range. I am not sure if its done or not, just doesnt look like any "activity" is going on. The beer is clearing up and theres a decent amount of sediment at the bottom.

Ok thank you. The alcochol content will also be lower, correct? It only really bubbled for about 2 days. It looks like everything is pretty much dead now and its been almost 4 days total.

Hello. I started a Pilsner LME batch of beer 3 days ago. A few questions: 1. Is it normal for there to be a lot of sediment at the bottom of the carboy already? In previous batches, it took a while longer for that to happen. 2. When I added the yeast to the carboy, the wort probably...

Hello all. With a Muntons Premium Pilsner LME kit, if I only added 2 LBS of Light Spray Dry Malt to it while boiling, will that be enough? I brought approximately 3 gallons of water to a boil, then stirred in the LME really good and then stirred in the 2 LBS of the light spray dry malt really...

Great, thanks. Is there a recommended OD for the serving line or is the ID of 3/16 the only part that really matters?

Hello all. I need to replace my beer line. Do you guys suggest a specific brand that is good quality vs buying tubing from a department store like Home Depot? I know the ID should be 3/16, does the OD of the tube matter? Thanks! Aaron

Ok, ya I will just hook it normally to the "in" connector. So after its kegged and cold, just hook it up at the desired PSI (10-12) and let it sit, without shaking it at all?

Yooper - when doing this, do I hook up the C02 to the "gas in (gray)" connector and not the "liquid out (black) connector like I have seen others suggest? And I am assuming with this method you mention there is no shaking of the keg after hooking up CO2? Thanks!

Of all these ways mentioned, whether its the "hurry up" or the "patient" method, do you always use the line in connector or do you use the liquid out connector? Is one better than the other and is there any "risks" if you use the liquid out connector? Thanks.

Wildwest, at the method you mentioned, after the 24 hours is up and you set it to the proper psi and serving temp, how long do you leave it settling before, a week?
