Hi Again, My first brew is on day 3. Just wondering what to expect. Although some people have said sometimes you get no airlock activity, assuming I do and even on a gentle ferment how often do bubbles come out? I know its a silly question, but i just dont know what to expect as i have no...

Hello Fellow (im a poet) Enthusiasts, Just have a question regarding adding gelitin to clear beer. It has likely been covered so im sorry if this is the case. I have my first brew in the fermenter now, when can i add gelitin to it to help clear it? Is it too late now? Im not going to secondary...

Thanks el caro. Appreciate the advice.

Hi, I have just got my first brew set up. Question is, I know i need to keep it at a certain temp during fermentation, but once bottled can I store it in cooler temps? Its a New Zealand brew, Lion Lager. I dont have a lot of space, so want to put the bottled lager in the shed. The shed gets down...

Dextrose, as per the shop persons instruction. And that of the can lol. I have carbonation drops. Will do a brew with drops and a brew with sugar and see which is best. I know sugar will be cheaper.

It is a New Zealand brew. Lion Lager.

Hey Peeps, Not an exciting post, but thought I would say I have just done my first brew, using extract. Fingers crossed all goes well. I will be watching it like a hawk lol.

OK Cheers

In what form do finings come? How long before end of brew would i add them? Apology for miss-spelling in title lol.

Just wondering what brewers in New Zealand are using to sanitize? I want something like Star San that doesnt require a rinse but am unsure what to use. Something that can also be put into a spray pump bottle would be good.

Will do, thanks for the help :)

Hi, This has probably been asked but as in a noob i dont have a clue. Im using carbonation drops in my first brew, do i add the drop to the bottle, then the beer, or the beer, then the drop? Any help appreciated, Cheers.

Thanks guys. I think i will drink my samples, i like the idea of seeing how it evolves. I spoke to the person in the brew shop and she said provided i sanitise i can put the hydro in the fermentor, however i dont like the idea of opening more than just the tap on the fermentor. I shall decide on...
