Awesome... thx everybody! :D

Hey Yooper, thx for replying for lagers i've always found it essential to go on "bright tanks"... but for ale's... meh... how do you calculate what to expect for FG?... i have always been in between 70% and 80%.. just let it be? now that we talking about it.. placing more yeast in primary...

hey dann, thx for replying.. so for this case, you would say, leave 2 weeks fermenting, even if activity ceases, and then bottle directly from primary? greets and thx...

Hey all Homebrewing peeps! I've got a classic question about secondary fermentation. should i go with it or not?? I've been brewing for more than a year and always used secondary.. mostly to use isinglass to get it clearer... always worked for me.. Recently made a personal recipe which...

hmmm... i'd say i kept it around 65, but it could have gotten to 70 or 60... there is always the chance that happens when im getting some other things ready.. You think that could have been the reason?? i understand 65 is optimal temperature, but getting it to 60 is less dangerous than taking it...

used 4 yeast satchets

Hey everyone. Been making beer almost 1 year now and one of my classic recipes is Vienna Lager, which i have been perfecting with time to my providers and my water supply. My last batch reached 1.057 OG. which was my target and made me a really happy man. but after 7 days of fermentation i...

Hey Man, try hitting these sites, www.minicerveceria.cl www.mundocervecero.com (or .cl) not sure jajaj... you wanna share a homebrew sometime beep me. greetings.

so the trespass you recommend me to do it aerating it the less posible? i use a spigot but my complication comes with the oxidated layer that always apears on top of the wort, which is complicated to handle. all the sedimented material should not go to secondary right? most of it i guess...

If you place a plastic spigot you gotta be thourough in cleaning, other choice is to use one of bronce of copper

i've had the slime some times but for me it has been a type of clarificant... try having a decanting valve in the lower end so you don't gotta open the fermenter and let air in

hey all, regarding the trespass from primary to secondary, i have a 190 micron filtration net, special for cooking purpouses, should i use it to filter most of the suspended material that might come off? read in papazians book that the limit for yeast is 10 microns, so i'm guessing this...

hmm, OG was 1.090. ok then, i'll give it 4 weeks in primary, swap it to secondary for 2 weeks and then bottle it and let it rest at least 2 months... how does that sound? thx for all the replies everyone

Hey everyone, After a successfull Pilsener and Bock testing, i decided to hit the barley wine recipe, for it is a more worked recipe, since the 6th hour i noticed intense fermentation, which has gone on for more than 48 hours, left a video for it. so im feelint great, relaxed i know...

whoa, true true, forgot that detail... had some troubles with bottles, so i had to re-use some heineken bottles thx :)

Hey everyone, glad to be here cheering my first brew, here are a few pics of my 11,1 L production, almost 3gal. it is due (in it's 16 days period) for august 4th. A pilsener, that is. carbonatation on some plastic bottles i had seems to be going well... so just relaxing for my homebrew...

hey, thx for the reply, i had read this, i just have a basic fermentation question... since i have heard and read many different things and didn't have it clear. then again as revvy said i don't want to open my fermenter for this issue, since i don't want oxygen to pop in, so for now i feel...

hey y'all.. just a brief question, brewed a batch of pilsener and left it fermenting for a week at 11-12°c (perfect for my yeast), didn't see much activity except for a night in which it seems there was intense activity that i noticed the morning after when i saw the airlock had lost a...

hey! thx :) brewing pilsener right now, 12 hours ago left the batch in fermentation.. so waiting for the results! :D
