flat beer

Hi I'm posting this thread because I have done a significant amount of reading about this general idea on other threads, and about CBC-1, and my hope is to get some more detailed recommendations/advice/experiential anecdotes about adding yeast to flat bottles. Specifically CBC-1 quick...

Hi folks! It seems like i have a problem with the carbonation leaving my beer to fast. When pouring my kölsch to a glass there is a great amount of carbonation. And the first sips there is alot of carbonation. But it seems like the carbonation is leaving the glass very fast so when drinking...

i have just started to home brew again after about 35 years. My first brew ( a pale ale ) turned out pretty good except about 6 out of 25 bottles came out flat ie no carbonation. I bottled into 750ml PET bottles with a screw cap. I think what happened is when I tightened the cap on those 6...

Hi, people! I'm a homebrewer in India. But I've been brewing Kombucha (a fermented tea) instead of beer for now. I retrofitted an old fridge with a beer tap to make a kegerator of sorts. I brew my Kombucha in glass jars, and then pour it in a used pin lock corny keg I picked up from a store. I...

I am a beginner homebrewer and am having trouble with my newly kegged brews. I am using a homemade keezer to pressurize a 5 gallon ball lock keg. I have played with the co2 pressure for about 30 days. I have had it as high as 25-30 psi and as low as 8 psi. I try to shake it to mix in the co2...
