I have an american wheat fermenting in a temp controlled fridge. It's a small fridge so I can only ferment one at a time. I plan on letting it stay in the primary for 3 weeks before bottling. Do I have to leave it at low temp the whole time or can I take it out, say after 2 weeks and let it...

My thoughts exactly!:mug:

My first batch is bottle conditioned and ready to drink so I tasted the first one last night. It's a red ale. I didn't expect much. One, because it was my first attempt and two, I had some some mishaps with the chiller during the cooling off period (brand new damn thing that leaked). Anyway, I...

I got up this morning expecting the worst since I've read many threads of slow fermenting wheat beer. The temp is at a steady 65 degrees and the airlock is bubbling like crazy. I'll let you know how it turns out. Thanks again for your guidance. This is a wonderfully informative forum.

Thanks for the help everyone. I've got it set for 69 so I'll turn it down a bit and let it work. Thanks again!

I did a search and haven't found the answer I'm looking for. I beginning to ferment an American Wheat for the first time. I'm using Wyeast 1010 and wondering what the suggested fermentation temperature should be for this type of beer? Thanks

Ain't that the truth! :mad: I've got a line on a used mash ton and an uncut beer keg to possibly make into a brew pot. There is a lot of stuff needed to go all-grain as you already know and that is my intention eventually. In the mean time as I'm gathering all the equipment I ordered a Coopers...

Thanks to all you for the great direction in getting me started. One thing I've learned by visiting a brew shop is there are at least 2 different ways to brew, reciepes in a can and all grain. I understand one is easier than the other but there are trade-offs. As a newbie, should I go with the...

Does the last word in your post have a different meaning like many other words now-a-days or are you calling me names because of my lack of knowledge?

Thanks for the great information. I will check out the brew shops you mentioned. Unforunately this Saturday is scheduled for me. I would love to meet some experienced brewers and gather some knowledge. Everytime I start a new hobby or project and try to learn on my own the mistakes usually cost...

I'm brand new to this forum. I tasted a good home brew for the first time about a month ago. I always thought it was impossible to make a good home brew. I'm ready to make it a hobby but I want to do it right. I hope to be steered in the right direction here. Anybody within a 200 mile radius...
