I'd like to add some cold-steeped coffee to my Imperial Stout but I have few questions. The beer has been brewing for six days now and I think the fermentation is about over (I'm aiming for a 7-8 alc% beer). I was thinking to cold-steep the coffee and put a bit of rum on it keep things...

Yes that was the yeast I used. Should I stop it with some wine fermenting stopper? Is that what you mean with chemical stabilization? What do you mean I could drink it pretty quick? :D

The tube I used to measure gravity was so small that when the juice had sugar on it it could not move freely... The Idared has a white flesh with a firm body, and generally considered to be tart and juicy.

Did a cider with: -15 kg of apples, mostly Ida Reds (sweet) will press juice, looking for 6-7 litres of juice (?) - 5 litres of pure apple juice ( http://www.harboe-international.com/en/Products/Juices/Pure%20Apple%20Juice.aspx ) 400 grams of glucose : (...

I have done few batches of beer, but cider still a new thing. Was planning this: -15 kg of apples, mostly Ida Reds (sweet) will press juice, looking for 6-7 litres of juice (?) - 5 litres of pure apple juice ( http://www.harboe-international.com/en/Products/Juices/Pure%20Apple%20Juice.aspx )...

So I started brewing this monday and next day the airlock bubbled really good and this continued few days but tomorrow it's silent. Havent seen new bubbles at all. Should I be worried or is this because of the small amount (17l as the container is 30l) or the lack of spray malt / sugar?

Thanks a lot ACbrewer! :) I hope you get free karma!

Nope, could not find the meter right now. Been few years since I last brewed.

Hey guys, did a muntons yorkshire bitter 1.8kg and added 500grams of spray malt (had only one bag) and about 150 g of sugar. Overall water is 17 litres. What alcohol level this would be roughly? And if I want to add another bag of spray malt can I do it tomorrow (this is day 1 in the...

Hello everybody and everyone. I just moved this odd thing to secondary, let me hear what you think. First I boiled like 7 litres of water, added one can of Coopers Draught, and one can of Bernsteins Medium Ambre (unhopped). Boiled and stirred them like 10 minutes, then used running water to...

Monolingual? Very nice to read such encouraging comments, and Ill post more of my work later. Once again, sorry about the english.

Haha, I do. Infact I mistyped that one. PELLERVO-STREETS BREWERY. Sorry about that.

It says "Pellervo's street's Brewery", and "The jack of spades".

A design for imaginery stout! Done with photoshop+canon powershot 520+pencils. Sorry its in Finnish, but I think you'll get the idea... :mug:

Used what?

Got another question. I now siphoned the beer to secondary, and everything looks OK. Ill let it be there 2 weeks, and then I bottle it. Should I then leave the bottles to room temperature for some time or should I transfer them to colder place (in this case my cellar). I read that the beer...

Ahh ok, so the idea is to get rid of the yeast? Aint there a risk on bacterias keeping the beer on second container couple of weeks?

Another question on this one. Did I understand it right that the second fermentation container should be air-tight, or with an waterlock like the first one as well? I think it should be just airtight letting no air come out? Should I keep it on same place as it was (my closet, about 19-20...
