I agree with this. Sorry you are having hard time. It really should not be so frustrating. Go get some basic kits and I would not use oxy clean. I dont know about that stuff but I use c brite or another used for home brewing. I would just say get back to basics man. I have not even brewed as...

I am kinda stumped here. Dark Ale had fermented really heavily the first two days and then subsided as normal. I have just been letting it sit in primary. Temps went it bit high at one point 75 -76 but have been back down to 73. It's really weird. Never saw this happen or heard of it before...

Hello everyone, this may be a stupid question but I need to ask. I bought a brewers best belgian triple kit and it has been in a primary and everything is going just fine. My question is being that this is a kit and not all grain should I just do what I normally do with other kits? Normally I...
