Every brew i pour is just head!!, i carbonate at 4 degrees c @30psi, after a day or so, turn it down to 2 or 3 psi, and its all head... Also how long should i let finning sit, they come out as little clear floaties :cross:

ive never had one explode, but maybe you are putting too much sugar in, or it hasnt finished brewing yet? just a thought

hey, how long should you leave finnings in b4 kegging :drunk: , i find they come out in the keg, and taste grose, and you can see them, little clear things...

P.s, add a extra 200 grams of white sugar ontop of your dextrose, you will get 7%-8% booze, its the best :drunk:

mate im only a amateur too, but ive had plenty of advice... get a hydrometer!!! that is number 1, your homebrew shop will have them, they aren't expensive. what ive found is wait 5 days, pour a sample into the test tube, if it sinks into the yellow you are done, if not, let it go another 2 days...

that helped, thanks

WOW TOO COMPLICATED FOR ME ( THINK I NEED THE HOME BREW FOR DUMMIES BOOK) :drunk: ESPECIALLY AFTER A FEW COLD ONES, THANKS BUT.... :confused:

Hi new to the brew game... I got advice that adding a extra 200grams of sugar will lift the alcohol level to about 7% is this true? And if so, should my hydrometer sink more? past the yellow marker??? How do i tell what my percentage is? Thanks
