    First time Beer batch question.

    Thanks Jon73, this is exactly how I felt. I absolutely hate it when people try to discourage you from doing something on your own, especially because they want your business. It makes no sense. I still have to buy supplies and ingredients, now because I got a negative feeling from that store...

    First time Beer batch question.

    Excellent. There is a Wine Kitz in Mission that I was in a while I ago, I liked it in there so I'll probably try and get back there to buy my supplies if I can. Its further to go than those "other guys" but sometimes service counts I think. Thanks for the fast response, looking forward to...

    My secondary is a 30l carboy, so I went ahead and just bottled it straight from the primary. I did not add any carbonation to it, and I'm guessing that it will clear in the bottle over the next few weeks? I ended up with 6 1/4 wine bottles full, the 1/4 made a very tasty beverage for me and...

    First time cider question.

    Unfortunately I did not measure the OG, The recipe, I just kind of winged it (experimenting is the BEST way to learn, even if it all goes to scratch, I think anyways). I started with apples off the trees in my back yard getting between 8-10l of juice, I added 1/2 cup of brown sugar, and 1/2...
