Anybody got a PDF of them?? Thanks

Then which trying to figure out my reading i saw a video that said don't return the sample!! Am I screwed?!? I hit everything with starsan including the sample jar/tube. And gave the inside a rinse with tap water and shook it empty to get a more accurate reading. Reading was 1.019 in a 72...

Thanks Revvy. 1st batCh to worried to think logically. Haha.

Thanks Revvy, I couldn't get an OG for a few reasons, so I don't know what to compare to.

No airlock activity, swirling of contents stopped. maybe 48 hrs max is that ok? Brewed 7 days ago from a truebrew IPA kit. It took 3 to 4 days for the first bubbles to show. Then it really cranked for a while with 2 inches of foam and it was swimming in there. Temps in the ale range for...

I gotta tell you my only worry about beer is usually getting into and out of the parking lot OR will they have the brand I want. :(:(

Maybe 2 days at the most. Now what? I was relaxing that all was well. :(

The foam is rather thick though. ABout an inch and a half in a 6.5 gallon carboy. and the airlock is bubbling. I hope it doesnt blow over in this heat we're experiencing here. I'm keeping it in range with water and Ice so I should be ok.

Seth, I appreciate your confidence but up til an hour ago i was sure this was going down the drain. But now, ... I. have... KRAUSEN!!!!! My fermenter is showing signs of life and I am encouraged after all!! Hurray!! I was also able to fend off the 95 degree temps with some ice and water in...

Thanks Iskuse and that is a very clear explanation and the tennis ball is a good idea. I just dont know if i have a flat bottom or not, I'll have to check later when I get home from work. Also RE: the cooler equals a slower fermentation it may have spiked today in the heat we have locally...

I like that idea of plastic to start. But, my instructions did not include a secondary fermentation. What happens? do I add ingredients or is it juts a move from one vessel to another?

hey guys, I brewed on Saturday afternoon and haven't seen a bubble yet. My airlock levels have not moved since the first day I put it in the carboy. Was my yeast (Munton's which came with my True Brew IPA kit) crap?? The temp has been in the 64 to 67 range since it's been sitting. I've...

Oh ya, the outside temps should just be in the low 70s today. So I'm good, it's showing 65 right now and I just moved it to the cool cement floor which should help,today.

My recipe provided dry yeast. And no action yet as far as I can tell. My airlock has drawn water up into the dome piece of the airlock and it looks full but I haven't seen a bubble yet. I filled the fermenter on Saturday afternoon and I'm writing this Tuesday morning.:mad::(

Thanks Just checking to see who's paying attention. haha. Appreciate the help, really.

My fermentation vessel is stored in my garage and the temp is 64 today but running up to the mid 90's in a couple of days. My instructions did not identify a temp range to store the full fermenter. My searches reveal I should be looking to stay in the 60's. Is this accurate? My glass carboy...

Thanks guys. I was in the middle of this problem when I remembered I put 3 gallons of tap water into the tank a few hours earlier. Duh. Cheers

Just about halfnof my airlock water was drawn up into thebtube and into my beer. Is it a goner?? I just my airlock and it appears to have stopped.

All, how can I take a hydrometer reading in a 6.5 gal carboy?? I'll lose the thing entirely. How can I get it out once it's in there?? Thanks

Thanks but how can I stir through the neck opening? I cant shake it, it's pretty heavy. ;) Thanks. Im so stressed I need a beer.:p
