I bottle only and have often found two weeks in the bottle is simply not enough time to reach full carbonation. When I started brewing, I remember that two week recommendation being the norm, but at least in my experience, it has been an inadequate amount of time.

I found this on the BeerCreation.com website: “Star San is a reusable sanitizer. Undiluted Star San has a shelf life of 1-2 years as long as the PH level is below 3. Diluted Star San stored in an open container should be used within an hour or so. When stored in a sealed container it should...

It is just my impression, so no hard facts, but my impression is the young demographic simply doesn’t have the same interest in beer in general like my generation did — I’m 65.

I really don’t understand why sellers of kits don’t revise their brewing instructions to eliminate the secondary vessel fermentation. That would require little effort. As has been stated numerous times, with few exceptions (such as fruit added to secondary), secondary fermentation has little to...

How about ice paddles which can be purchased at a restaurant supply store?

I don’t think anyone is “wrong”, it is simply a preference. Personally, I don’t even have an opinion as I’ve never kegged.

I have a-fib -- “palpitations” and I haven't brewed a batch of beer since before my heart attack on 7/5/23. I was also diagnosed with a-fib and the palpitations I'd experienced for a couple of years prior to that are consistent with that. I had zero alcohol for maybe 5 months but then I tried...

I know it’s not the primary topic, but I’m curious. I own a 1 bdrm condo and have lived here (and brewed!) for 8 years. I’ve been involved with my condo board, ran and lost in an election and, sorry to say, pay $600/month in dues. It pays for NOTHING

It also the cut Zac Econ had in the High School Musical movies.

Exactly -- Got a Wilser Bag for my M&B and I've had some fine crushes with no issues.

The service you received is not acceptable. However, the last post previous to yours is last August, telling me NB must’ve resolved some issues, so at this point we have no reason to believe they’re back to the rash of customer service and shipping issues that went on for some time. Fingers crossed.

I’ve lived in a small 1 bedroom condo for 8 years now and a smallish kitchen. I bought a portable 1800W induction cooktop for $50 ( maybe $100-ish now), placed it on the ceramic cooktop of my electric arove and brewed 5G batches in an 8G with a ball valve and built-in thermometer. I wrapped...
