Hi I made a normal Wit, re-used the yeast, and pitched it into my Nitwit Strong wit (from Mosher Radical Brewing) OG was 1.08, and after 3 weeks bubbling it still has a full krausen and is at 1.028 The last batch with the same yeast it got down to 1.01 so we have 6,8% alchohol, and it...

Hi. You might try some chinese store see if they have any of those for chinese liquors Then I go to the glass store and get them to drill a hole in the top for the stopper

This beer is improving a lot in the Bottle! What's people's experience with this ? I still have half my batch bottled so good news! After about 3 months now the flavours are really coming together, great honey sweetness and that Belgian yeast mmmm

OG came in bang on the guideline of 1.052 No idea what this Wyeast wit 3944 will give me The carboy is a chinese liquor tank they fill them with all types of things here!

Wit Guy White Ale - traditional Adjunct Mash Method: I brewed this recipe yesterday from Randy Mosher's book. Had a mild panic attack after sitting down and studying the book and realizing I had no idea how to follow this recipe! I had already smacked my smack pack! Since he doesn't give...

Great idea thanks! For 10 dollars I can buy a new carboy anyhow also

Hi Guys thanks for the advice. I have a pretty funky carboy, I live in China, so its a type used to house liquors with funny stuff marinating... photo attached. I bought a new glass stopper but it still didn't seal, need to probably buy a whole new carboy. in descending order the 3 most crazy...

Hi I use glass carboys - 6G. One of my fermenter lids has an airleak, in that the airlock doesnt bubble on this one. How long can I ferment in this one without worrying about oxidation? Its in there 10 days now. I want to ferment in primary for 3 weeks. Or shall I go and get a new...

Hi guys This brew turned out excellently! My 2nd AG. Photo Attached! It finished at 1.002 and clocked in around 7.7%. Used almost a full cup of white sugar into just under 5gallons, got a great carbonation although the wife says its a little too fizzy for her. No Bottle bombs! I was worried...

Hi Thanks guys for all the goods tips - extra washers, drill bits, cutting into the bucket, assorted contraptions for stopping flying debris.. I just put this baby together today. definitely stage 1. seemed to get a good crush however. On my 3rd all grain, still in the equipment...

Hi. The feedback I have from nano brewers in china is: yeast they import directly (dried) from the US or other western Internet suppliers. Malt and hops are available in china through local and western (german) suppliers, but not in home brew quantities, at least, not in small home brew. Minimum...

One week in the fermenter, already down from 1.061 to 1.008 and it still bubbling (slowly now) I tasted the wort, it smells great, got that Belgian nose (sort of reminds of a Leffe ), but the taste wasn't so good right now What's other peoples experience of the wort taste after one week? Mine...

Cheers! Here is the link. -Dan https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f128/ez-water-calculator-3-0-a-261001/ Thanks for the link Dan. I made sure to buy some mineral water for my next batch, not distilled. But since it didnt have the full mineral water breakdown, I couldnt use this...

Hi Just brewed this last night as my second AG. the picture by the OP was just too good to pass! my first AG was a bit of a disaster (way too much going on at the same time!) but this one went great. My first batch has a watery taste, I think its due to the fact I used 100% distilled water, so...

Sorry I meant I threw all the grains into the strike water temp of 165F

Oops! Ok good advice thanks. Should have left the temp rise a bit then. My next one is a wyeast French saison, I know this one works well at higher temps.

Hi I am a newbie AG brewer (only did 2 extracts before also) I went with Randy Mosher Yellow Diamond Belgian Pale for my first AG. I live in China, so I went with bottled water. Wasn't a problem with extract, now I am thinking this water is probably distilled. So I used 0 minerals. The...
