I am an (ex/bout to be again) EQ addict. Played back in the days of origional beta. got to where there were to many peeps PLing that didnt know their class, so I got fed up and left bout 2 years ago. But my uncle found an emulator that works for the newest expansions of the game, so now i just...

I believe you will be better off using the the bucket. The bubbles that result from fermentation can get into the airlock if the fluid level is to close to the top (e.g. five gallons of beer in a five gallon carboy leaves very little room for the bubbles to dissapate and can result in one hell...

Hmm, why don't you go down to your local school playground strap the carboy on its side bottom facing out right before recess. Then the kids come out and do the spinning. I know they can't hit the 35,000 RPMs required to centrifuge human blood but some of those little suckers get it prety fast...

OH THANK GOD!! Thank you so much E.P. I was freaking out. I'd still drink it but flat beer is not my fav lol. Thank you.

I bottled three days ago and have not noticed any signs of fermentation as of yet, is this normal or should i be worried?:confused: Sorry to ask such a lame question but i can not find the answer in any of my books. I double checked everything I did and believe that I made no mistakes. Any...

Haha! After five and a half hours unpacking, cooking, and cleaning I have just gotten my first beer ever under way! :D I have made mead wine and cider before but this is my first batch of beer. I am very excited. I would like to say thank you to the folks who gave me advice on temp range for...

Thank all of you for the advice. May have to try and fit it in my bedroom lol.

I would like to apologise for the lack of tact and decency displayed by someone claiming to be a Marine. I personaly am an ex Marine, and i am beyond offended :mad: at the way umscruz behaved. I hope that his ignorance and brazen attitude will not have given all of you a bad opinion about the...

It is going to be in an open ended barn, I have some supplies i can build an isulated container out of that would hold the fermenter, R-factor of 16+. What are your thoughts. (Wish I had space in the house, might just put it in the bedroom lol) Once again thanks for the quick replies, and all...

Jacopo he's doin fine for a hundred and fifty year old skeleton. ;) Thanks for the info ORRELSE. That leads me to a new question. It is supposed to get as low as 35 at night but 60s and 70s daytime. any suggestions on how i can keep the brew in the proper range? (e.g. insulation/blankets...

No sorry, don't recollect him. The yeast is the dry yeast that comes with the G&G Irish Red Ale kit, so i don't know exactly. Sorry I am new to beer brewing, have done wine in the past, but not beer. BTW thanks for the quick response DeRoux.

I live in Texas so it usualy doesnt drop to low here but we are supposed to get down to the 40s this week and i am planing on starting a batch. My only concern is how low of a temp can the yeast handle? Any help is greatly appreciated:)

Actualy now that Ive had a little time to think about it I have a new theory. It could be that our mental friend here isnt old enough to buy beer, and therefore may be under the misconception that he/she can't buy the supplies to brew. However i still hope that this is just some gag. BTW my...

I just wanted to thank all of you who kept this post going. I just read it for the 1st time, and got one of the best laughs of my life. BTW please please tell me this is some kind of gag, the thought that someone is drinking that outside of prison is just to much.
