I have a been Carbing a cider at room temp at 25 psi for about two days now. I have not touched it yet but was wondering what my next step would be and how long it may take.

The tank is opened all the way, if it drops is there any harm in turning it back up every so often?

I set the psi to 25 on the regulator but it keeps dropping down to about 22 after an hour. Does this mean I have a leak?

Thanks guys, I myself am not a fan of chemicals so I think I'll try this bulk pasteurizing method.

So even if I add campden tablets the yeast still may start up when I add sugar to backsweeten. To pasteurize, is boiling the only method?

How long will it take for potassium sorbate to kill yeast?

I don't want to but if it must be done then I suppose I'll have to get down to it. I just hope I don't forget how to put it all back together.

I recently purchased a Corny keg and was wondering If is necessary to take the whole thing apart for cleaning or could I just remove the lid and clean that way.

Awesome I'm excited to leave some of the bottling behind, thanks for all the help.

Thanks I'll try to remember to pick up the extras. I still have not purchased the tank but I went with the ten simply because I thought it would last longer. How Long does your five pound last with two kegs on it?

I'm about to invest in a corny keg system and was wondering if anyone had any advice for me. I'm starting off small with one keg a ten pound co2 tank and a simple picnic tap.

Cool, I'll be sure to do that. Thanks

So just let it ferment out in the bucket?

I've already added the first set of nutrient and energizer and it's fermenting nicely now, do you suppose I could rack it out of the bucket in a day or two without any more additions?

Any help?

I am currently making a batch of skeeter pee but I only put enough sugar to get it to 1.040 because I wanted it much lighter. Should I let it drop 20 points until adding the rest of the energizer/nutrient like the recipe suggests or should I do it before.

Yeah I also have the same worry, the pineapple is coming through pretty strong and the colour is pretty yellow which is weird because there was more apple juice.

I will, I'm sure there will be many, many more.
