Final result

Yes I used a hydrometer! Brewersfriend eh. I'll have a look thank you!!!

Just an update!! Firstly thank you all SOOO much on the great information. I loved reading every comment and reading links provided. I tested my beer at 2 weeks and it hit in range but the smell was a little strong. I let it rest for another 2 weeks (3 weeks 5 days) and it smells great. Did a...

I went into a brewing shop here in town. He asked me what kind of beer I enjoyed and then suggested a setup. I didn't do proper research before buying, always wanted to and impulsed bought. I'm guessing I'll do an ale next bath

XD You have to crawl before you learn to walk

I live by a Mill and smell sulfur a lot. Definitely a unique smell. I'll keep a close eye on that

I jumped into it a little early without as much research. I've spent the last 2 hours reading and more to come! Excited to have started

is there a way to tell if it is cleaned up of sulfur? will the smell let me know? I'm down to wait longer if needed, like I said zero rush on this

I'm fermenting in a basement that is 10°c at the moment. It will be getting colder as the weeks progress. If it doesn't turn out I'll run it again with the winter coming, would be easily controlled

it came in a package without any information. Only a BBE date and a 79633 pin. Its Brew Canada lager kit. I looked absolutely everywhere

Okay I didn't know this. I could easily get it into a room between 8-11°c . The instruction didn't say a temperature to keep it in. I was always under the impression of a warmer room.

Awesome, I had no idea. So I could probably turn the heat up in the room at week 3-4ish for a bit. Nothing to crazy, I'd assume 25-28°c? Sorry for all the questions, I just find it so interesting!

I'm 10000% comfortable with waiting. I'm a fan of waiting until things are done, no rush on my end. I'll go 3-4 weeks for sure

Great advice thank you! So I'll test my batch at 2 weeks and see where is? Is that how you tell if your beer is ready or not. I'm thinking with the carboy I'll make some wine for my girlfriend.

Hey guys! First time trying my hand at brewing. Have had a couple solid marijane grows so what to expand on making my own product. This seems like a great hobby and a lot of different ways to brew which I love. I bought a kit and it came with a 5gal bucket and a 5g carboy. I bought a kit and it...
