    Storing applejack ?

    I did applejack last year froze it in 2L soda bottles and drained them off in mason jars. I refroze some of that in another soda bottle and drained that in mason jars. I only have a few oz of that batch left but I've stored it in a mason jar in a closet. The flavor has changed over the year, and...

    White dots growing in my carboy??

    Just finished bottling and cleaning up after myself ( dropped a near full bottle on my kitchen floor, shattered glass and sticky beer all over ). Tastes pretty good. FG read high at 1.026 but I don't know if I trust my hydrometer. Regular water reads at like 1.010. We'll see how they turn out in...

    White dots growing in my carboy??

    This should be right up your alley! https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f163/monster-my-cellar-371743/ Haven't tasted it since the day it went in the secondary. I don't know if I can wait much longer!

    White dots growing in my carboy??

    So it's been sitting in the secondary for about 6 weeks now. Think I should bottle it in time for Christmas or let it age some more?

    White dots growing in my carboy??

    Caught me! I thought i was infected for sure! I got nervous this is only my 4th batch and I never saw that stuff before. I'm seriously going to skip the bucket next time and do the whole thing in my Carboy.

    White dots growing in my carboy??

    So here's what it looks like there's a ring of activity and the airlock has started bubbling again about once every 2 min. Those wispy streaks came off some of the dots that I saw accumulating on the top when I moved the bottle around. Temp of the beer has gone up over last...

    White dots growing in my carboy??

    Looks like all my white dots have turned into little pockets of bubbles! I think that's a good sign right?

    White dots growing in my carboy??

    No haven't tasted it. Smelled delicious though the airlock though.

    White dots growing in my carboy??

    I wasn't worried that I killed the bacteria. I was worried that I killed the beer!

    White dots growing in my carboy??

    Yes it kind of did look like wet popcorn this was just before I moved it.

    White dots growing in my carboy??

    So I checked it again and it looked like there were more white spots on top. I tilted the Carboy a bit and almost all of the dots fell straight to the bottom. Did I kill it for good? It looked more like undissolved solids falling out of suspension. If it was an infection the spots should have...
