    Question about glass carboy

    My last question is this. I noticed a lot of pictures have the primary bucket with a lid and air lock on it. My primary bucket only has a piece of plastic seran paper held tightly onto the top of the bucket with an elastic. And a hole is punctured into the top of the plastic to allow air to...

    Question about glass carboy

    I appologize, it feels like i'm in grade school getting scorned :) The only reason I rack to a carboy is because I was told to so :) But my next batch I'll try the route of bottling straight from the primary bucket. But reading through my instructions of my brew kit "Brewers Springs" it says...

    Question about glass carboy

    The only reason I ask is this. I'm making all my beer ahead of time for next summer. My primary bucket, I fill to the 23L mark, and as I stated in the above post, when ever I rack to my 23L carboy it's is only about 3/4 full. And as doing as instructed, I top my carboy off with water, so it's...

    Question about glass carboy

When I fill the plastic bucket up to the marked 23L mark, then the contents into the 23L carboy, the carboy is just slightly above...

    bottle my first stout... my hydrometer readings

    No, I'm not considering this a hobby anymore, it's not long fun, it's stressfull to point of me worring about how exact my measurements where, did I add to much of this or to much of that... Let me recap -- I was confused... my brew store gave me one set of ingredients, the can instructs gave...

    You nailed it Revvy I don't appreciate the help -- yet I posted that I did a few times in this thread... your saying I didn't read the posts did you not read mine? you must have missed the part, where I thanked every one for their patience and help.

    if you read my posts, my questions build off your answers, because I didn't understand the answers. if i'm given an answer that isn't exactly clear to me, it's my nature to search out the answer and understand if fully.

    bottle my first stout... my hydrometer readings

    Aye, what I did was follow the instructions (I went out) bought 500g (1.1 pound - i think) of light malt.... and gonna add 250g of dextrose/sugar... as per the instructions :) See how that works. That should do? So do I want an initial Hydro reading of 1.038? or should I just dump the correct...

    bottle my first stout... my hydrometer readings

    I got frustrated, the brewer not telling me the proper instructions... I didn't dump the 12 Litres of Stout though... So tomorow I'm going to my brew shop to make Cooper's Mexican Cerveza -- according to the instructions I need... the can of malt + 1kg of brew enhancer 2 or 500g of light malt...
