Hmm..... Maybe we could some of the home brew shops involved, say Home brew heaven and Bobs home brew?

Oh I'm right there with ya, I've had two already! They are coming along but the carbonation needs more time and the beer leave a bit of an odd taste in the middle of your tounge. Hence me wondering about all this aging. That's alittle more along the lines I'm looking for, a little patience...

Ok so three weeks to carbonate. A week to disolve the carbonation.....gonna have to lokk that one up. How about aging past three weeks? Better in the fridge or in the closet at room temp?

I just realized that I don't know when to put my bottles in the fridge. I'm working on two weeks in the bottles at room temp but...not sure when to toss em in the fridge. Does the beer age better at room temp? Or at sone point does it make no difference? Red ale btw.

Howdy neighbor of the friendly north! That's a great question I've been wondering to given I have to use my electric stove which always leaves a little toasted malt on the bottom of my pot.

Just a week. I know its got a ways to go its just the clear beer level changing back and forth I find odd.

Got my red ale sitting in my carboy/secondary and the top level of clear beer keeps rizing and falling. At one point I had an inch of great clear beer on top...then that shrank to 1/8"...now its back to about an inch....? Wth? Could this have to do with temp??

Anyone have a recipe for Harmons Steep n Deep? 5 gal batch prefered...

Sweet. Just as I suspected on both counts. Much appreciated guys!

So Ive got a batch of red ale coming alng nicely. The clock is winding down to being time to bottle. Ive been saving my microbrew 22s and some 12s. Today I bought a case of 22s from my local brewing shop and straight away I noticed that they were much sturdier then the 22s Ive been saving. My...
