ive been wanting to do one myself, but looking for an extract kit because i dont do all grain batches yet

i think the taste of the lemonade was horrid and unfixable ill try it again another day maybe not using honey just turbinano sugar. I didnt have much of a yeast cake

had a very strong rubbing alcohol taste, no lemonade taste at all

Not sure what happened to my batch but i checked the gravity readings on it last night 1.002 getting close to where i expected it to end up. Although it tasted like crap undrinkable. I dont know if it was the honey, or the juice i used, maybe be the yeast (lalvin ec-1118). Everything that came...

maybe its the yeast im using, i usually add about a TSP of yeast nutrient with lalvin ec-1118 yeast. I let it ferment at room temp 68-70degrees have yet to experience rhino farts with my afpleweins 25gals an counting

im not into doing all grain yet do you have a extract version of this and your octoberfest?

im on my 5th batch of edworts.....YEAST NUTRIENTS!!!!! I have yet to have rhino farts

I like the idea of aging aflewein that long maybe ill have to go buy a better bottle carboy, get some good quality apple juice and forget about it for a while

Ive found that adding a healthy dose of yeast nutrient cures rhino farts

yes i used ec-1118 i plan on letting it ferment out completly before bottling the stronger the better. I added two cans of pink lemonade the otherday thought they were thawed out all the way when i dumped them in they had solid middles to them...opps not thawed. Im gonna check it again this...

im about 1.5weeks away from bottling my first batch of edworts, thinking i want to back sweeten it. I was gonna use splenda any recomendations on how much i should use? I will be using 5oz of dextrose to carb it up

along the same lines of killing/damaging my yeast. Im currently making a hard lemonade its been fermenting for 2 weeks now so i decided to add 2 more cans of frozen pink lemonade concentrate to my primary. My idea was give the yeasties more sugars to eat to drive my ABV up, I allowed the cans of...

I would just take your spent grains down to the complaining neighbors house in the middle of the night put them on their property then call and complain to the city

buy some more kits/ingredients and brew 2 more batches
