Adding at the 60th minute means at the beginning of the one hour boil. In brewing we count down to zero. Magnum will be very bitter at that point.

I think that after 8 years the OP may have already found an answer.

Caribou Slobber is a knockoff of Moose Drool. Yes, a brown ale. welcome to the obsession.

I guess that might depend upon the yeast. My kit said to move it when SG was below 1.004. Mine was .994 when I transferred.

Yes. I moved it to a secondary. First one I made I left it on the yeast (EC-1118) and did not like the final result.

The seltzer kits I have made from Williams Brewing have all finished in less than 10 days. Around 6 or 7 as I recall. Yeast nutrient is the key. if you are fermenting in a carboy with minimal head space I can see how you might have gotten the overflow. Pitching dry is common. What yeast...

A simple question. Are you measuring with a refractometer or a hydrometer?

Looks like flakes from the krausen.

Not correct. Condensed milk can be sweetened or not. Evaporated milk is a powder form.

Probably was a fairly low OG with that mash temperature so it could be down to 1.010 at this point. Let it ride. Not much can be done at this point.

Have you checked the voltage at the outlet? Are you getting 120volts?

Count me in. Thanks.

6 tablespoons of yeast nutrient? Something doesn’t sound right there.

Refractometers don’t measure sweetness. How are you making your assumptions?

How are you figuring your priming sugar amounts? And I agree that it does look like an infection. I have never had a “cap” like that form in my bottles.

Did you clean the Clawhammer before using?

Patience is good to have when brewing. Remember that 1.010 is not the “goal”. It is just an estimate. The hydrometer readings will tell when the beer is done. Wait a few more days and take another reading.

Drink it and move on.

B-Brite is a cleaner. Starsan is sanitizer. If your bottles are clean already just use Starsan. If they need to be cleaned, use B-Brite first then rinse with Starsan.

Nine days is a bit early to bottle IMHO but maybe with extract it is OK. We’re you sure fermentation was done? Did you take a hydrometer reading and subsequent ones to be sure it was finished?
