So, I bottled the Belgian Ale seven days ago. I know you should wait at least two weeks before opening but I decided that is was important to check on the progress. It could have an infection. Right? Luckily, its fine! It open with a loud roar letting out a nice smoke of hops aroma. It poured...

I agree w jones. Nothing against coopers kits! I just would never use there yeast again!!

I would love to be chosen! ;)

Hmm..It will be 14 days in the secondary on Sat. Ill grab a reading and bottle. I figured it was still fermenting if I saw the CO2 burp.

This is incredible! Is it possible for the beer to be still fermenting? Pitched yeast on April 30th. Racked and Dry hopped on May 7th. I moved the carboy last night and it went down from 72F to 68F.

Thanks for the response. :mug:

A big cake of mt. Hood is sittin on top. Should I be concerned?

I picked mt hood pellets. The fermentation seems to have stopped at 1.018. I'm going to take another hydro reading in 24hrs and then rack.

Thanks for the advice. I just visited your website. Impressive! http://www.themadfermentationist.com/

I've just added the link to my lastest brew. Everything came out pretty well! I also have a review of the Irish Stout in the video. Please feel free to comment. Im planning on my next brew DFH 60 min and need any tips/advice. :mug: Part 1: http://youtu.be/GR9TTnadv8s?hd=1 Part 2...

Enjoying my 1st coopers Irish stout on my 36th birthday! This beer taste amazing! I will give a full review on my YouTube but the beer past my expectations by far! Clean and amazing after taste! Head retention is sick! Btw, I'm starting a mini mash tomorrow. It's a true brew Belgian ale. Look...

Great info! Thanks for taking the time to make these charts! I know I will keep them handy! :mug:

My babies! :)

I actually bottled it today. Left the beer in the FV for 21 days!! What would the ideal temp to store these bottles be? I currently have the room at 74 degrees. Pitched at 68F degrees SG: 1.060 FG: 1.016
