Did you get the full boil 60 min or what ever is called for? It should be fine but even more so to add a second fermention or go to bottles quicker. You may have scorched it a bit and may produce a couple of off flavors. But trust me if it tasted like piss you would still love it because you...

Ok had the blue hills brewery Wampatuck wheat. I have to say better then the antimatter but has a minor metallic finish and is very carbonated.

I would almost let it condition for 4 weeks and ferment for 2 weeks. Your not really getting much out of it when the yeast stops eating just take your gravity reading and if its the same for 3 days its done and ready to bottle. Bottle condition is big the longer the better.

How long have they been conditioning? You may need to stop the carbonaton process. I believe you can do tis by refridgeratimg which you may not want to try or open the bottles and add some more yeast. Dont qoute me maybe someone else can chime in here.

Welcome. You will find its easier to just do direct deposit for the brew shops and have them send you new toys and ingredients. Dont forget to shake the carboy before you add the yeast just be careful do it for as long as you can this will give the yeast a great start. Also let it ferment for...

So gas all up and psi all up and adjust air intake to what half way?

Has anyone had blue hills brewery antimatter ale single malt from canton ma it is not filtered which is fine to a degree but it's very dirty almost like fish food and there is a strong alcohol taste at the finish which is terrible. I'm guessing the focus was on alcohol level and not taste anyone...

Midwest has a hand held heater for about 170 it's about 2200 watts which will be ok but 4500 to 5500 is best some say 3500 for the BK to prevent scorching.

Electric from what i read can cost only $1.20 to make a batch depending on your kwh cost. The equipment is the main cost.

How long does it take to get to a boil. It took me 1.5 to get to 170 then 2 + hours to get to a boil. This again was at 45 degrees so room temp at at least 60+ would save about an hour i guess.

I have just gotten a 15 gallon brew pot and i am noticing i could be going through a rhino tank in one brew this adds $20 to the cost of brewing. Is this correct the water was about 45 degrees and took 3.5 hours before coming within 10 degrees of boiling. Bayou says with 3lbs of propane at...

Spraging is more of a all grain thing don't worry about it yet. The grains you get from these kits are more for color and aroma you are not really extracting anything and they should be pulled around 170 degrees so they don't add any neg flavors. Your yeast if it is a smack pack as long as it...

Thanks to everyone who help me spend my 500 dollars lol. I was going to just focus on kegging but was convinced to go all grain. So i bought a 15 gallon kettle on the right, a ball valve and bazooka screen (which is to big at 12" any ideas to make it smaller would help)for the cooler and i got...
