Does any one sampling unfinished beer find it gives them wind. I've never vented so much since starting brewing 3 weeks ago.

Welcome to the wonderful world of unfermentable sugars and the gut bacteria that love them so well! If you sample before the fermentation is done, you will also have some maltose, etc. These sugars are all easily transformed into methane and what is known in the trade as aromatics.

Yes, the live yeast works in your gut that way. Hey it gives off gas in your fermenter and in your gut as well.

Now Orfy, are you being completely honest about this? I lived among some of your brethern for 5 years and with a diet of beans for breakfast, bangers and mash with beans on toast for dinner and of course there's bubble and squeak fairly often. This on top of several pints a day, I've never known a bloke that couldn't vent on command and be quite proud of what he'd created. LMAO

I've started 6 in the last few weeks, they are just getting to the bottling stage now. I sample the wort, going into Secondary, Bottling and 1 week into bottle.
Thats 6x3 = 18 samples in almost as many days.
I just tested my first bottle for carbonation. It's good but still a little cloudy, tastes like a fine Belgium wheat beer.

No, I think its the yeast. Kinda like driniking liquid C2.

Quick note: 4 Ales, a fermenting beer taste, and homemade meat, onion, and pepper calzones may be considered a W.M.D. My dogs even just left the kitchen...

I've heard a lot of good things about SaltLick, but you really ought to try Luling City Market or Kreuz's some time, tho I don't think they'll let you walk in with a sixer of homebrew.

Are you talking about the Luling City Market in the Galleria Area of Houston?
That's a 3 hour drive for me El.P.

No, the Luling City Market in Luling...the one in Houston is run by a rogue member of the family and isn't any good at all. Luling's 43 miles south of you on 183 where it hits I-10. Kreuz's is in between Luling and Austin.Sudster said:

Toot the horn a couple hundred miles before you pass and I'll be sure to wave as you go by.
