Subscribed. Lookin fwd to taste comparison. Thanks.

Beernut70 Thanks for the reply. I was thinking maybe around 2.0 volumes would be appropriate, even if out of style. I do not keg and did not understand what force carbonating to 12 psi would correlate to in volumes.

What did you use to carbonate and how much did you use? I was wondering if 1 oz of corn sugar would be enough for the style or if this seems low? I generally store after fermentation around 68-70 deg. in a closet and usually carbonate to style with adequate head. Not sure on this one, my...

I just brewed this and ended up with OG at 1.054, I used 5 lbs of Pale 2 row and 3.75 lbs of Maris Otter. It is fermenting nicely at 60 deg. My question concerns the volumes of CO2 to use to bottle. Tasty Brew shows the style for Scottish Ale/80 schilling at .75-1.3. The calculator shows to use...

Do a search for EdWort. He has Bee Cave Brewery Bavarian Hefeweizen posted in the Wheat & Rye section under the Recipe Database section of this forum. It is fantastic. Or you can click on his recipes under his Forum name heading and the Hefe is listed. His House Pale Ale is great, too.

I am fermemting in a plastic fermenter bucket and wonder how you keep tabs on the internal temp in the bucket when I have the airlock in? I have been using bottles of ice morning & evening to keep by temp at 64 degrees. Also, the bucket is in water to help stabilize the temp. Is there anyway...

How do you split a Wyeast bag of yeast to use in a 2.5 and a 1 gal batch? Then, how would I keep the balance of the yeast?

HoosierDaddy, Thanks for the site. It confirms the 8 oz addition of corn sugar. Thanks for the advice.

Thanks for the advice. Should I stir it a bit ? Any help with the amount of sugar?

Everything has been going just right. FG is 1.008 down from 1.048, getting ready to bottle my first homebrew. I have the bottles cleaned, sanitized and in the dishwasher awaiting the Bavarian Hefe. I racked from my fermenter into the bottling bucket. But wait, I forgot something. Forgot to...

Thanks for the replies. I guess I am just overconcerned about sanitation. So, I may need to raise my ferm temp a few degrees? I am trying to keep the banana esthers down and maintain the clove taste at the lower temp. Thanks again.

I completed by first brew last Friday, ABS Bavarian Hefe, and I just remembered after reading another post, that I may have screwed up and topped of my fermenter with cold,filtered water out of my fridge. It has already went thru a pretty good ferment and the air bubbles have slowed. Should I...
