Hello Good Folks,
I have an Irish Stout kit. I intend to follow the directions that came with the Coopers kit. It also came with a book and the two disagree on the process.
Q1: My kit came with two ale pails, one with a spigot one without. The Coopers directions skip the secondary going from the primary in 4 to 6 days straight to bottles.
Should I do this or siphon off and use a secondary? If so, for how much longer?
Q2: Can I add my priming sugar to my secondary all at once or do I really have to add it to each individual bottle as I fill them. Youre not supposed to stir up the secondary, right?
Thank you very much, I plan on starting this process tomorrow.
