Thanks for the help,,I my ask a friend who bottles to bottle it for me... What do you think a table spoon of priming suger, boiled in cup of water?

Well I brewed a belgian dark strong- used the the right amount of water 5 gallons, I have one growler left over worth of beer after transferring to the secondary. So I was thinking- can I add some priming sugar to the growler and "growler" condition this brew? And if so- how much sugar do I...

3:00 today...brewers best Belgian dark strong...made my starter yesterday..happy brewing everyone!!:mug:

Thanks BeerGolf- I think I will all the rest again just to see- My last one was a Belgian triple- MY LHS said one vial was enough, when I didn't see any activity - I posted my concern on this forum - all said it was under pitched. That what started my researching and using charts like Mr. Malty-...

Thanks- was not as bad as I thought- scale took all the guess work out- Thanks for the help!! Cheers!!:rockin:

OK Gentleman- I purchased a scale and I am on my way!!!!

Thanks Beer Golf I don't have a scale yet but i found this conversion 7/8 cup=100 grams So one liter of water + 7/8 ( or 1 cup) boil for 15 minutes and pitch yeast and place on stir plate? Does that sound right? For a 5 gallon brew? Thanks again

Going to make a yeast start tomorrow for my beer brewing event on Saturday. I have had and see allot on different ratios on how DME to water. My local Brew Store- says 1 cup DME to 2 cups water YouTube says-Beer nation- 1/2 cup DME to 2 cups water White Labs says- To brew a high gravity...

OK- so let me see if I got this right- My friend bought me Brewer's Best Belgian Dark Strong!! It has a OG of 1.079 max- When I go to Mr. Malty- and type the specs.(Mr. Malty's Pitching Rate Calculator™ ) Mr. Malty tells me the pitch rate should be 2.8 vials or three to even it up...

Dry Brewing Yeast vs. Liquid Brewing Yeast | I found this interesting-

Gentle man- we have lift off!!! bubbling away this morning!! I have learned allot from this thread and this forum!!! As most have stated here, and a lessoned learned for me- High Gravity Beers need or should have a starter. Youtube has allot of information as well as white labs on the the...

Good suggestions Rico & Peter- as I already put the energizer in- and nothing happens by tomorrow- i will pick up another tube- I think I do a starter next time for a high gravity brew- seems like the HG beers need a little boost to get started.

I looked at date- It would be good for another 4 months- My local brew shop suggested a yeast energizer-

Took a hydrometer reading- I have 1.084 as of today and it has been there since Friday- does say anything about the yeast?

Room stays a steady 70- to 75 degrees- I think thats about where it should be. I do have it elevated off floor- just in case ;)

Will do thanks for the post!

Just took a peak at the wort- not a blessed thing going on- I think the yeast must have been bad. :(

Double Bummer- still don no have any bubbles & the Local beer store is closed on mondays. I did email them. I think the wort should be ok in the primary for a couple more days,right?
