So, I bottled the Belgian Ale seven days ago. I know you should wait at least two weeks before opening but I decided that is was important to check on the progress. It could have an infection. Right? Luckily, its fine! It open with a loud roar letting out a nice smoke of hops aroma. It poured...

I agree w jones. Nothing against coopers kits! I just would never use there yeast again!!

I would love to be chosen! ;)

Hmm..It will be 14 days in the secondary on Sat. Ill grab a reading and bottle. I figured it was still fermenting if I saw the CO2 burp.

This is incredible! Is it possible for the beer to be still fermenting? Pitched yeast on April 30th. Racked and Dry hopped on May 7th. I moved the carboy last night and it went down from 72F to 68F.

Thanks for the response. :mug:

A big cake of mt. Hood is sittin on top. Should I be concerned?

I picked mt hood pellets. The fermentation seems to have stopped at 1.018. I'm going to take another hydro reading in 24hrs and then rack.

Thanks for the advice. I just visited your website. Impressive! http://www.themadfermentationist.com/

I was thinking of adding some hops when I rack next week. What hops would you recommend? Plus, do I just throw the hops in without stirring or boiling? Sorry for the newbie questions. I've recorded most of the brewing process. Feel free to view and comment. I brewed straight from my backyard...

I've just added the link to my lastest brew. Everything came out pretty well! I also have a review of the Irish Stout in the video. Please feel free to comment. Im planning on my next brew DFH 60 min and need any tips/advice. :mug: Part 1: http://youtu.be/GR9TTnadv8s?hd=1 Part 2...

Enjoying my 1st coopers Irish stout on my 36th birthday! This beer taste amazing! I will give a full review on my YouTube but the beer past my expectations by far! Clean and amazing after taste! Head retention is sick! Btw, I'm starting a mini mash tomorrow. It's a true brew Belgian ale. Look...

Great info! Thanks for taking the time to make these charts! I know I will keep them handy! :mug:

My babies! :)

I actually bottled it today. Left the beer in the FV for 21 days!! What would the ideal temp to store these bottles be? I currently have the room at 74 degrees. Pitched at 68F degrees SG: 1.060 FG: 1.016

I was going to bottle it after fermentation. Luckily, I still have yet to bottle and plan on just keeping the beer in the FV for an additional two weeks. I have yet to purchase a car boy for secondary fermentation.

I filmed most of the process. Feel free to take a peak! No negative comments! ;) I brewed straight from the spring at my lake house. It's short and direct! Check out this video on YouTube:

I didn't see any fermentation in the bucket after a week and the beer smelled awful. I did a english bitter with much better results and back in the flow of things. Currently, getting ready to start an Irish Stout. I hope I dont have a stout curse and this batch goes according to plan.

I'm excited for this next batch. This will be my third go at it and loving the results so far. Looking to purchase a mashtun, carboy, autosiphon etc now! :mug:

I purchased the TC Brewmasters Irish Stout Beer Package. This package contains an Irish Stout beer kit, 500 gm Light Dry Malt Extract, Dextrose and Carbonation drops. Coopers sells the kits on there website. http://www.makebeer.net/item.asp?idProduct=44&idCategory=112&idSubCategory=0...
