Awesome thank you.

Just had my first bottle opened. Was carbonated perfectly so I'm glad for that. The bottles still have particles floating around I'm not quite sure if it's yeast or what. Is that a bad thing?

Alright, been about 2 weeks since I bottled the batch. They've been in a dark cool spot the whole time. Can I put these in the fridge by now? Want to try it soon.

Will do!!

I did slightly it was definetly an ipa but it was missing something still(obviously carbonation). It was my first batch and i got stuck using a few makeshift tools but i did sanitize everything so im hoping for a good result. I've already bought all the proper tools for round 2

Awesome thank you. Not sure where I read that putting it in the fridge can work too but I'm glad I asked.

Got a small home beer kit, made 9 12oz bottles and now I have 2 weeks before I can drink them.. My question is can I put them in the fridge? Or should I leave it in a dark cold spot like I did when it would ferment? Also, siphoning for the first time really kicked my ass lol.

Sweet thread, although I received a kit from Brooklyn Brew Shop and not Mr Beer but I can't imagine the two being worlds apart. I'm also hoping to upgrade my equipment after 2-3 batches on this little guy. This forum is awesome so far.

Small home brew kit, Brooklyn Brew or something. It brought me here since I'm looking to start brewing on my own.
