Very help full, thank you! Webby

Well as predicted this failed :) I'm sure I did a lot wrong but I might try again some time. I boiled my water added my sugar and wet-cob and ice bathed until the temp was 90 and pitched the yeast. After the first week it really smelled like beer but when I went to bottle it at two weeks it...

I don't normally shop online but it looks like it is time to change that. webby

Yes, yes, and yes..

Yes sire! My Wife hates the movie. The not-beer is bubbling away, hope it doth not kill me.

Wasnt it a moose?

No not as bad as that does. Thanks shooter. Webby

Cool thanks for the speedy reply. Webby

So has any one just pulled the tap and stinger out of a sanke and used it like a 15.5 gal carboy? I have one in the man cave I have ben using as a light stand and this seems like a better use of its time.

No llamas where hurt, killed or.........otherwise in the making of this not-beer.

Not good but not bad. Has a solid dark honey flavering but low abv. will check agin next week and see how it is. Webby

So what are the signs of infection?

I guess I should post the why of my waste of carboy space. The nearest home brew store is 60 miles of Windy mountain two lane highway from where I live, so I cant really just hop in the car and go grab some malt. I was feeding the llama and wondered if the cob would make a palatable...

Well next time I should have hops and malt so maybe I will try something like: 1gal water 1/4cup golden malt extract 1/4cup cob 1/4 oz yet to be determined hops BTW it seems that around here wet-cob is just rolled corn, barley, oats, wheat and molasses, if it has alfalfa pellets in it...

I'm glad to see that We have an open mind. wet-cob is allot like sweet feed without all the forage added, its rolled grains and molasses. SWMBO may not have feed sweet feed or wet-cob, maybe used only alfalfa. Not all that has malt is beer, not all that is beer has malt. (or hops) Red...

OK so I'm bored and I have two weeks until I can get to the brew shop. Having animals I always have wet cob running around some where and have decided to try making ale with it. I have not hops, I do have. 1qt sugar 2qt wet cob 5gal water 1 packet redstar champagne yeast I...

OK so this is my first batch of beer ever. I got a Mr. beer from a friend and it has been sitting in the closet for some time due to lack of time. I was starting my first batch's of wine and cider and figured I would give the Mr. beer a go as well. To make a long story short I got half way...

Thanks BOBrob, I didn't have any sobate so I just sanitized everything real well and kept everything hot as in the above. It seams to have worked as I don't have and bubbling or bottle bombs as of ye but it hasn't been that long. I will have to try the sobate next year and see if there is...
