yooper is right, :rockin: as usual lol

hmm, I dont know but my gut says no, to cold for the yesties to do their work. Conditioning is the act of natural carbonation. if you set it under co2 in the cold and never gave it priming sugar then it is unlikely to " condition" at least thats what i think

ditto on coffee:mug:

unless you have a keg setup then yeah:rockin: but honestly i use the 1-2-3 method and most times its good by then and yeah it is really hard to not drink it all before it is REALLY GOOD! brew multiple batches and put half away for storage if its a big beer, if you cant keep from drinkging it...

ido not know if 2 days is long enough. will waiting 4 days matter that much ? if you want super clear beer i would stir it in let it sit 4 days then rack and bottle, but thats just me and i dont always do things the "right" way

0.5 tsp per 5gal of beer for the gelatin. let it soak in about 1\8 cup of water for 60 min add hot water to disolve after the 60 min about 1/4 to 1/2 cup works best to do this right after you transfer to secondary 4-5 days and it will be very clear rack to bucket and bottle as normal

what ever happend to the 1-2-3 method?? 1 week primary 2 weeks secondary 3 weeks bottle ?? cool and enjoy:tank:

ijust had a 20lb tank from 1978 (no kidding) just had it retested for 18 and filled for 20 here in denver. the guy told me he sees tanks much older then mine

it really sounds like you made bottle bombs, thats 3x the sugar.

depends on the size of your bottles ?

31919.5 +5 gal diabolo and +5 gal dryhopped ESB = 31929.5

Just bottled the pale ale yesterday and racked the Russian Imp Stout to secondary. the black ipa and the stout get bottled in 2 weeks looking for a big ipa to brew this weekend that would be good the end of january:ban: any suggestions?

best advice ever " Relax, don't worry and have a home brew" read clean read again then brew your beer...thats about it

always mix it in. i usually fill the bucket before i mix in my disolved sugar/water mix

If you have the space move them to the fridge, if its cold outside and they wont freeze put them out side perhaps? i had a 5gal batch of 1L bail top bottles go kaboom. did you stir in the water/sugar mix ? ?

always have spare parts, that way you could sanitize and replace without it being left open looking at the picture i would ask if the foam is receeding? if it is just swap in a clean airlock wipe down the outside a bit and let it roll :rockin:

bottled the pale today:mug: hope it has some fizz on turkey day the black ipa and the RiS are slated for bottle on the 25th give it 30 days to condition for xmas :rockin:

:mug: I am glad you kept the brew!!! name it something explosive! :rockin: anyways, my boom moment was on carpet and my ex was less then pleased

the air lock got clogged, built up pressure and went pop! i always use a blowoff tube set up to avoid what i see in the picture. hell i might let it finish and see if it comes out ok.

im in! just started pricing componets to start kegging :ban:
