Great ideas. Ill try all three since I have three big bottles!

Thanks for helping. Ill try the angel rice leaven. Ill also try the apple juice. Thanks again.

It is definitely lemon sour. I tried that but its just not working. :(

I added the yeast when the rice was just barely warm. Left it in a closet that stays between 67-70 for 3 weeks. The odd thing is it happened to all the different batches. Could it be the water? Here is a link to my cities water info.... http://www.ci.columbia-heights.mn.us/index.aspx?NID=261

1 cup rice to 1 cup water. Brought to a boil, turned to simmer till rice was done.

One just jasmine. One just sticky. The others were different combos of the two. Chinese yeast balls crushed in all of them. Rice was soaked and rinsed.

Total failure. All 6 test batches are completely sour. Everything smelled so good, I don't get it. I sanitized everything thoroughly. Never had weird mold. Any ideas what could have gone wrong?

Woo Hoo! 3 days in and liquid in all of my test batches! This stuff smells so good. Nutty, floral and alcoholic. I tried the following combinations with chinese yeast balls: 4 cups cooked Jasmine 3 cups cooked Jasmine with 1 cup cooked Sweet 2 cups cooked Jasmine with 2 cups cooked...

I have been getting a weird taste in all of my batches. I am 99% sure its not oxidation. My only thought is that it could be the city water that I am using. Could anyone take a look at the following water profile and let me know if I should be treating the water or if it could be causing...

ANOTHER BAD BATCH!!!!!! WTF? I was sooooooo careful not to oxidize the wort. I dont know what the hell is going on. This never happened before I moved into my new place. Could it possibly be the water? Here is a link to my city water quality breakdown. Could someone take a look...

Gotchya. Thanks.

What type of yeast did you use? Most ferment best at around 70-75 if its an ale yeast. At least thats what I have found. Otherwise the yeast wont be as active.

One more question. I know some people put fans in keezers. Is this necessary? I guess I dont understand what type of difference it actually makes in anything.

Awesome guys! Thanks for your advice!

Thanks alot guys!

I have been looking but I cannot find what size drillbit to use to drill for the tap holes in a collar im building. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks, Ben:rockin:

I usually do a seperate boil of the actual fruit. Stick it in the fridge for a day or two (creates a syrup type liquid) and then add it to the boil @15 min. From my experience this works best to get actual fruit flavor. Ben
