another question, lets say that when preboil gravity is 1.046 and I want 1.052, what can I do? Also, I moticed that if I add 1.25qts of water per pound the grains arent covered completely by the water so I guess they aren't converting sugars right? what do.I do? sparging is complicated isnt...

people, after I've pitch a second time yesterday i stilldont see a lot of activity like my last times, whats happenning??? it was an a/c room I got it away to a normal temp room would it help?

so, in conclusion, the yeasty odor I felt yesterday could have been.because of yeast added been too hot? I added more yeast the next day, will it be fixed or is already spoiled? its only been 3 days of brewing, is it spoiled? in the past, everytime I felt that odor.at the first days at the end...

Hi, after boiling I placed hot wort in the carboy and cool it with adding water from a hose on the outside. I waited until I could touched it and felt warm, once donde add yeast and let it there. Will flavor be bad because it cooled slowly on the final part?

theres a few bubbles on the surface but nothing fierce so I added the american ale, the smell was like very yeasty, its been less than two days so I guess is normal right?

heres how it is picture attached, I added a wyeast of american ale after that

no nothing visible, can I add more liquid yeast even if isnt the exact .strain? the wort cooled with a hose but it finally cooled at room temp will that spoil it?

Hi it was 9:30pm I was tired, didnt have any ice or coil so I was cooling wort inside the carboy rinsing tap water on the outside of carboy.,It wasnt super hot, I could touch it with my forehand and feel a little hot but not burning so I got tired and add a wyeast german ale inside the carboy. I...

Can I not sparge? I mean if I want to make 5 gallons of beer, I can do as if I was going to do 6.5 gallons and when it evaporates i have 5 gallons with my desired gravity? And thats it?

If i reach desired gravity, but isnt finished yet, I can pasteurize and thats it right. Then I have my desired gravity and I stop any action of the yeast. By the way whats the least gravity a yeast can get? Near 1.010 and 1.009 right?

Yes but the bright tank in breweries is just to carbonate and usually is very cold, right?

Also. Can a difference of 0.002 cause a bottle to explode?

Only an approximate value, but once is under 0.014 i dont have to worry about bottle bombs anymore? I guess the best way is wait until the gravity is stable for at least 2 days right?

Hi, if I want to make an american ale with an OG of 1.052, to be safe. Lets say I want it to have 5.3 abv. So I wait until it reaches a FG of 1.016 and I almost have the 5.3 abv so its acceptable for me, but maybe it can keep on lowering gravity. If I carbonate and then bottle, its going to...

Hi, im a little confuse with sparging, lets say I want to do 5 gallon batch of an american ale with an OG of 1.052. How much water I add up initially for mash?? How much water I add up in sparging? Whats going to be the OG before I add up sparge water? And After?

do yoj know how to get it.for free? its almost $400 but it looks great

Please recommend an industrial brewery book please

No it isnt

What happens if I rinse a bottle with ozonated water and then fill it with beer? Or if I ,clean equipments with ozonatex water? when the ozone converts into oxygen is going to oxidize the beer? Or its ok to use?
