All i seen was 23% on a packet of yeast called "super yeast" So i was wondering the same as you! I've used a maltodextrin supplement for energy at the gym! :)

I searched on Google and on here and couldn't much information on thsi subject, I was wondering how hard it would be to make something around 20 - 23 percent (so not distilling) that resembled fruit based liqueurs. (A Guess) Is it simply, Water sugar + super yeast then flavours? How do you...

I wouldn't personally bother, I'd just rack it to another bucket without any form of filter, Leave it over night to settle hopefully all the bits have gone to the bottom, transfer to another bucket to bottle OR leave for another night a repeat process (This is how i do fruit wine) Each time you...

Does the enhancer have a big effect on flavour? Do the beers taste good without it?? Only just thought of this, after bottling a Mexican lager today, what tasted a little weak, but i'm guessing this is down to it being "green" and needing a longer in the bottle etc. I was just wondering...

Its very nice for a main stream lager :) Very refreshing!

I don't use beer bottles i use plastic 1 litres, What had pop in before. I empty them and put in a little washing up liquid and fill with water then put the lid on. I leave them like this for a while untill i come to use them, (stops that empty bottle smell) (piece of mind also) Then i wash...

Rdwhahb! :) Its nothing to worry about you can leave it in secondary for months. Probably just needs to be careful when bottling to not get any bits in them by using a filter :)

12 tea bags, 2 blackcurrant tea bags about a spoon full of "perfect steak" :P and a clove. about 600ish sugar o.g. 1.070 for one gallon It smelled lovely, of black current and spice (this is all what perfect stake is) Fermenting now.

That is true, I do have two hydrometer, i might drag my old en' out and see if it gives different reading to the new! I'm guessing overall with the equations and human eye and hydrometer could make a various of around 1% ether way.

that does give a reading of 9.17 whats the lowest up to yet. :S

Just wondering what is the right equation to use. I've used coopers beer kits they say (OG-FG)/7.46 + 0.5=ABV% Another i've read says: (OG-FG) /7.5 =ABV% then i brought a set yesterday and it says this in the instructions (OG-FG) /7.365 =ABV% Because saying that OG was 1070 and...

So basiclly i just need to prim it, leave it.. top up if needed :) thank you.

i'd mush them up to make sure you get all the flavour :)

I brought a cheapo plastic keg came with the little 8grm gas bulbs. I was thinking, if the beer is added plus priming sugar should their be enough pressure from that to not need to use the bulbs or do they have to be used. Overall i have no idea, dont want it blowing up on me!! Any...

Its an brewing addiction! He's my story :) Around about two months ago i stumbled upon a website what shown how simple it was to make wine. So i thought, maybe i could do that, I found a two litre pop bottle, brought some grape juice to fill the bottle and bread yeast (all i could find) I put...

I'm doing one of coopers lager right now, Temperatures actually say 18 - 27 and best is 20 - 24 Celsius, Im guessing their instruction will be correct! And for lagering, how are you storing it? keg or bottle, just add priming sugar to each and leave for at least a week (3 recommended) to...

Rdwhahb!

Thanks for fast reply :) Yeah it came with "Coopers Ale Yeast" Just one more thing, Would it still carbonate properly if i left it three weeks using priming sugar. Tar.
