cool, ill stop by with a bottle,thanks for the support. my brew is actually drinkable this young, but i can tell it needs something, time most likely. im going to brew the dangerous belgian tomorrow.

im in east mesa, good news my bottle bombs are diffused, i checked one and its a little foamy but no gush, i moved to fridge to finish, hope it works.

lesson learned, im just glad i could salvage it (unless it blows up in the fridge)

I must admit that this foul up was my mistake, my LHBS said to RACK to secondary fermenter on fourth day, not bottle. so i must apologize. anyway i opened a beer and it foamed a little but not that much. so i moved all of it to the fridge to let it finish, it also tasted good.

I just found out i may have brewed a batch of bottle bombs, so i have alot to learn before even thinking about grain.

thanks for the tips, i'll keep you posted

will do , thanks brewsmith i feel somewhat relieved now, is that a tuba or a euphonium in your pic?

the krausen was gone, just small brown blotches on surface.

there was activity in the airlock, and that made me think i should wait, I bottled anyway tuesday so i should check a bottle on next tuesday? the bottles are at 61 degrees now.

please excuse my greeness, the yeast was in a blue pouch (dry) it was made in france, and it was an english ale yeast.

thanks for the help, can i potentially save the batch by doing that?

I think it was the book that came with my brewkit, im not sure. im new and have been reading like crazy on brewing, perhaps i could have thought i read that. thanks

great... i was reluctant to bottle but i followed the direction of my homebrew supplier, who said "you will want to bottle After the third at most fourth day" he said this was a fast fermenting yeast. he also said 7-10 days then move to the fridge.

I had a book tell me to soak my bottles in a bathtub with some dishwasher detergent, then i realized that this is a big no no, so i rinsed the heck out of them and brushed them as well, will this still mess with my head? of my beer that is?

what happens if a beer is not done fermenting and it is primed and bottled? :confused:

How soon after the iodophor soak do you bottle?

I've just bottled my first batch, amongst the bottles are 1 bass bottle and 1 Pilsner Urquell, also a Red Stripe, and a couple of samuel smiths. Are these brews going to be ruined? I used a winger capper and some elbow grease.

Hi , this site seems to be just what i have been looking for. My first batch is bottled, looks good so far, i cant wait to drink it and im already planning a new brew. How long should i brew with extracts before moving on to mash?
