I'm thinking about 3.2L in my one gallon fermentor and 0.6L batch in this. But I think I will use some other bottle to ferment than the picture. Maybe a sparkling wine bottle...

I'm thinking about doing a split batch with one gallon to compare different yeasts. Is there any reason why I shouldn't use this ikea 1 litre carafe to ferment the smaller batch. (I would find a proper plug and add airlock of course)

Me me me!

Opened one at day 4. Not wery much carbonation yet. Taste wery sweet... a bit like barleywine. I have hope for the other bottles so I will not open/recap them if they stay fine. I hope I cans see from the bottlecaps if the pressure gets too high...

I'm thinking I want to relieve the pressure before it sprays all over... So I get to drink the beer and not clean it from the walls. The picture is after 3days in bottle, so I guess it will still generate more pressure.

No, it's before priming. This is what I did: -boiled wather and sugar and put that in big kettle. -siphoned the 1dl of beer to mesurementglass for FG. -siphon the rest of the beer to the kettle where is the sugars -siphoned from the kettle to bottles.

It's 3 days since bottling. Opened one and recapped. In the picture you can see the small amount of gusher. Hiss-sound was a bit less than what you would expect from normal carbonation. Maybe tomorrow I drink one and decide if I'll open and recap them all.

29h since bottling... I know it's too early to check, but I did open and recap another bottle... nothing unusual with that... Just a small hiss... I think I'll open another one tomorrow.

I bottled the batch that Im concerned today... Maybe 6 hours ago. The picture is from a previous batch like 2 months ago, but the bottles are the same. I put the bottles that I'm concerned to safer place and I didn't took a picture of them, so I send the old picture (same bottles, different...

Siphon + bottling wand. The smallest bottle has of course to much head space because I didn't have enough beer to fill it. I think in this batch the bottles have little less headspace than the last batch (the picture).

Well. Thanks for help. I think I check another bottle tomorrow to see what's going on. (I'm feeling so noob)

(Picture is from previous patch... Same bottles)

Here are the bottles

Should I open them all in maybe after 2days and recap? How much that will help? Or should I wait longer? I really don't want any explosions...

Ok I'll be careful. But I'm a bit confused... Brewers friends examples says: "German Wheat Beer = 3.3 - 4.5 volumes" Why don't these explode? (I like the high carbonation in German wheats) Sorry for being noob. This is my first allgrain batch.

I bottled these about 2-3 hours ago...

I opened one. No gusher at all. Just a wery little hiss-sound (lasted like 0.1second).

No tase of syrup or too high sweetness.

The tast was grate before priming and bottling. Not too sweet. Hmm...

Interesting. Last time I did volume of 2.7 and I thought that I want a bit more carbonation so I went with 3.0.
