I read wrong because now I did notice that every line on hydrometer is 2 units. so my gravity is about 1.014-1.016 My open gravity had to be then 1.046. 1.014-1.016 Is okey like for final gravity of extract beer ?

It taste a bit yeast flavor but gravity didn't change in like one week even little . I'm worry about this gas . Even if diurning pour thru spigot little yeast will come in why it is carbonated ?

yes this is correct . but it was totally clear , this is cloudy and with gas ? What can be reason of that?

Hi Gravity didnt change and its still cloudy and fizzy ? What can be problem ? I raised temp to 22* C . It Can be because I pour it via spigot and yeast cake is that high that its mix during taking sample ? Should I open fermentor and check ? Can I put it to another fermentor on secondary...

I brew only for my self and won't sell anything . Just want drink something more tasty than shop can offer and it is a nice feeling to make something what is drinkable :) so Everything should be ok ? Will be someday homebrewing in Japan full legal? is someone trying to do something with this ...

ok thanks ! IT will be my last time with unknown yeast!

I think airlock don't work properly. Because it didn't work from beginning. My gravity reading were different because of gas small bubbles pushed up hydrometer . After take sample it was really fizzy almost like sparkling water . I try to keep it in 20-21 degree and will check again 3 days...

Any idea ? Should I raise temp ? Or allow it stay just longer ? It is normal that beer still fermenting after 3 weeks ?

never read about this method on forum . Is it comfortable ? I would like to make something more for long term. So Less drain area make more problem with channeling ?

I dont know what kind of yeast is this . Its yeast from brew kit can. Wort is cloudy and fizzy as on photo its mean that yeast are active ? Should I raise temp ? I took sample after pitch the yeast and place on the desk in 25-28*C fermentation finished in one week and final gravity was 1.011...

Can I use copper or brass spigot with ball velve? I live in Japan and Im not sure what is copper or brass made from . It wont contain lead? Can I use normal PVC? I read that people recommend to use CPVC but I never saw such a thing here in Japan.

Hi, I making Morgans royal oak amber ale and fermentation was weak from beggining no bubbling in airlock and almost no foam. OG was 1.040 after few days I took sample and it was 1.020 . Now after 2 weeks sample is cloudy and fizzy whats mean that fermentation didnt finish ? after 3 weeks? ...

Hi guys, soon I want to make my first all grain beer. 1.First of all, I bought cooler as mash tun. ITs 40Qts coleman wheeled cooler is this not problem that bottom isnt square ? (photo attached) 2. I cant decide on filtering method. SS braid or manifold. how do work ss braid ? because wholes...

I didn't check gravity of my beer in fermentor . After pitching yeast I took sample to small pot and left on the desk with higher temperature to check what should be a FG. I guess yeast in that temp in one week should eat all sugar. I'm afraid of bottle bombs. So want be sure if it's really a...

Why 1.005 would give watery beer? more concentrated malt give higher gravity? Then IF making all grain beer with starting gravity 1.040 what should be final gravity for not watery beer? From what Gravity beer have Deep rich taste? Because I understand that higher gravity - more sugar - more%
