So my first batch of Mr. Beer American light has been done a while they've been bottled a few weeks and I've been putting some in the fridge and popping them open every 2 Days I noticed a kind of sweet off taste and was wondering if I didn't leave enough room in the bottle to carb or if it's...

Lol ok good I don't want to abuse alcohol....so does granulated sugar carbinate as well as a co2 tank does cuz that's just mind blowing to me haha

Ya I have a full bottling kit that is currently full of brew just letting it ferment for another week before I take a sip I'm dying to crack that first one open though! I know this is a dumb question but the brew that u fill the hydrometer with can u put it in a bottle afterwards or should u...

The ingredients are base malt, victory malt, caramel malt 80L,chocolate malt, and carapils malt. I also bought some corn sugar to add during the bottling stage does that have a better affect than the granulated sugar?

The hops package says c-type tgats all an its 1.25oz

Ya sorry I didn't know what was the best forum to post that in.

Thanks sorry i shouldve looked first haha but I think I'm going to go with another extract but I'm definitely planning to go to much harder brews but I know it's going to kick my butt? Also I need more equipment nut Idk what to get yet.

Ya right now since I just started I'm looking towards the malt extracts with maybe a twist but Idk what I have a porter kit n i purchased some hops for it but I was wondering If i could add something to the boil to give the flavor a kick like honey or something also a way to boost the alcohol...

It's not a pre hopped extract but I did purchase some hops to put in it. So I should bowl half the extract with 2 gallons of water and towards the end of the boil add the rest of the extract?

Ok I'm a total noob at all of this what is lbk exactly and I'm assuming mrb is Mr beer? What's a good site to get carboys n an airlock?

Now that's my kind of thinking no beer left behind! Hey since I'm already asking a lot of questions what's a good site to buy some lme?

Also the Mr. Beer kit is very basic I'm sure you already know is there any crucial equipment I should get to get a nice kit started like syphons or a carboy or anything else?
