He told u what it was. What kind of question is this?

Alright great thanks

Thanks i only swished it

I did a yeast starter yesterday and stirred up the solution in my flask after activity was present. Its not 10 hours later and activity was still going so I stirred it again. There is no activity now and im worried I messed it up. Never did a started before and I dont want this Wee Heavy to be a...

Im reading on different sites that the final gravity on this white house honey ale is supposed to be 1.016-1.014. mine has been fermenting for two weeks now and is at 1.020 and Steady. should I leave it to see if it will drop any or call it "ready to bottle" and bottle it?

if you are going to add the apricot extract then yes I would secondary with it for at least a week. if you arent going to add the extract then you dont need to secondary. leave it in primary for three weeks and check gravity in the fermenter if you have to. no need to use a thief to pull out...

Im reading on different sites that the final gravity on this white house honey ale is supposed to be 1.016-1.014. mine has been fermenting for two weeks now and is at 1.020 and pretty steady. should I leave it to see if it will drop any or call it "ready to bottle" and bottle it?

I wrote the recipe wrong before this is the real recipe. I lost it and now here it is.

Absolutly. Stone Ruination. Unita Hop Notch. Heavy Seas Loose Cannon. Really hoppy too not as hoppy.

Can u give me a very very hoppy but great tasting recipe that u have used or know will be good? Not a 60 min or 90 min dogfish head clone or anything like that though. Thanks

So ur thinking like 1-1.5 lbs of crystal? What else should be added?

Yes 4 gallons. It is a brew kit from www.homebrewusa.com in norfolk Va

Supposedly if beer is left around dead yeast too long it will impart bad/off flavors. Havent been brewing long enough to know and Im too impatient to leave beer in a fermenter for more than three weeks. When fermentation is done, it's done. Thats why you need a hydrometer.

I was gonna leave three weeks and gravity test then. People at the brew shop said honey takes longer to ferment out. So im monitoring it between weeks two and three.

I had a little over four gallons. Forgot to top off cuz it was my first brew.

It looks pretty damn close to mine. Id say it looks great. How long has it been in there?

Here is mine at the 11 day mark

5 oz sugar that comes in the package

1 cup of water and the standard 5oz of corn sugar package that comes with the kit. Stirred into the brew in the bottling bucket when sugar water reached room temp. Bottles are sitting at 70-72 degrees.
