Ya it was a 6 gallon batch. I tasted a sample during bottling with the blowout water and it tasted watered down and kinda "wrong".

I'm using the coopers brewing kit hardware where you do everything in the 1 carboy. That's why we bottled out of the fermentor. Thanks!

I was soo excited to brew this perfect 100% yeast AA Witber. My airlock setup is a large bottle with a tube and boiled water. When I bottled I never removed the air lock (such an idot!!) It sucked in the whole bottle of water at least 2 cups of 2 week old water. I realized I made the mistake...

I have cooked with Jasmine rice and found the jasmine taste very delecate to the point of non-exhistance. I'm not sure the beer would pick up anything from it. Why not just use Jasmine tea. There is an abundance of high quality jasmine tea's out there, especially with loose tea's shops...

Just a note. My 3944 liked being shook up after a while. I went from 1.043 to 1.019 in 12 days. Shook/swirled. Got from 1.019 to 1.013 in 2 days (with slower airlock activity). Left it for another 5 days now at 1.011. I'm bottling in a couple days but I'm already at 75% AA and it maxes out at...

Update, 2 days from the last reading its at 1.012!!!! Sweet! That's 72% AA. Gave it a last swirl and hoping to get to 1.010 for the 76% AA.

Cool, ya with my reading last night Im at 55% apparent attenuation and the yeast is 72-76% in the book, so it seems its got a ways to go. It's been sitting steady at 22 degrees C the whole time. From my swirling of it yesterday the bubbles have re-reached the top of the frementer lid, so it...

Oh, I never boiled the kit, just the orange, coriander and yeast starter. But I also did add more sugar than the directions as I wanted a higher SG.

Well after 12 days I'm at 1.018 (tasted pretty good!), OG was 1.043. I gave it a swirl figure let it sit for another week. Im hoping to get to 1.011-12, is that going to be possible?

Can you explain that further? My 3944 has been going for 12 days and just is creeping on the 1 bubble every 10 seconds vs 5 seconds that it has been for the past 10 days. I cant imagine its done if its still that active..??

The confusion gets worse... they make an ale kit too!! What also through me for a spin is the lager kit says anywhere between 21-27 degrees C. Everyone here says 22 is high even. (Mine was at 22-23) and at 3 weeks is missing the mark. She's tasting a little apple'ish.

Hi guys, I started the Coopers Wheat recently as my second brew. My first was the coopers lager, but after all the 3 weeks still tastes a little green (apple after taste). I'm hoping it will fix it self. Overall I'm never using coopers yeast again. For my wheat I used wyeast 3944 (Super...
