no honey I use the Canadian blonde extract, 700 dextrose & 500 grams dme with Nottingham yeast. The first 4 batches I made tasted better than any commercial beer I've bought. The last 3 uggh. As for cleaning I use saniton and then oxy san for sanitation.

I've been using the same sanitation practices routinely and have used Nottingham yeast instead of the coopers that comes with the kit. I've mad this kit exactly the same with the exception I use to used the filtered water from the fridge and then 1/4 tab of campdem. I stop using the fridge...

Hi. I've made the coopers Canadian blonde kit with great success until my last 3 batches. They have kinda like a cardboard - medicinal taste and looked cloudy. Is it oxidized? How can that be? I never opened the airlock for testing since I've been making this kit the same. I just ferment in...

oops forgot this view.

Just like to thank all you who posted here for giving me ideas on my build. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/scrapakeezer-482398/ :mug:

My wife gave me **** for having so many bottles all over the place. She told me to get my kegging system. woooohooo!! :rockin: So today I ordered this: http://www.ontariobeerkegs.com/Dual_Cobra_Tap_Complete_Kit_with_Cornelius_Kegs_p/dual-cobra-complete-kit.htm I hope its okay for a...

Thank you for your reply. It's still in primary. How long does it normally take for fermenting to be done?

So it's been 36 days and I took a reading that is 1.02. Should it had stopped there or should I take another in 2 days to see if it's the same? If it's the same do I pitch more yeast? Like I said I used ec-1118.

Thanks for the responses guys. I guess I'm anxious to get into kegging but I think I'll use the fridge as a fermenter then as controlling temps for that seems more important right now. I'll be on the look for a cheap freezer to do the kegerator buid. I only paid $20 for this fridge and it works...

Hi. I was wondering if I could do both in this fridge? I figure I could fit two kegs in the back along with the co2 tank and fit 2 5 gallon carboys in the front. Stupid question but is this setup possible for having the same temperature or am I going to need the kegs to be colder? Anyone...

I decided to salvage the disaster I created by funneling it into bottles. Btw way I tasted not even an ounce afterward and WOW! I must say... tis good! :):rockin::)

That 4 liter jug I forgot in the freezer.
