I have bought a all grain kit at my lhbs, should make about 40 pints. I have three pots at approximately 3 gallon each. Cant get a boil with two at a time. Is this doable as my first AG attempt, or will i have to wait until next payscheck and by the 8-10 gallon pot? Also thinking of a mashing...

Ok, last question, regarding that last answer. When fermentation is finished in primary, beer is usually still green and has not developed the right flavours. Will cold crashing kill off some or all later development? If i add new yeast with priming after CC, i dont have to worry about that...

Its been 14 celsius all the way i think +-1. Its been bubbling slowly for eight days now and gravity at 1.021 after day 6 from about 1.042-44 OG. I read that if you pitch some more yeast together with the priming sugar, it should be okay even if the yeast go dormant during cold...

My beers usually does not clear until they have been in the fridge for a week plus. Dont worry!

I am lagering my lager in a secondary in a week or two, and I have to choose between the isolated basement at 14 celsius and the garage, that is almost always above freezing (4-5 degrees). Should I go with garage? Will it help to wrap blankets or a douve or something around the carboy to...

Anyone with experience on this topic?

I have had my fermenter with ale yeast at 55 fahr for a week now, beer samples and gravity are improving and airlock activity is back after a litte rousing. Very slough though. Don`t think you have to worry.

I just added 100 extra grams of beer enhancer (dextrose and spraymalt) to my batch after 1 week in primary, to a beer that I expected to be too thin considering previous experiences. I read that this could improve the body of the beer and that some people do this as a rule of thumb, although...

So, I just added 200 grams (7 oz i think) of beer enhancer to my primary after 7 days of fermentation. I only added like 850 grams of sugar when setting the batch because I had less than I remembered, and I filled it with 1 litre of water more (to 22.5 l) than I usually do. I always think it`s...

Ok, but is that wise as temperature fluctuation id not recommended?? Can i just finish at low temp and do a dia rest? I read about people who did this even with ale yeast. Experiences anyone? Sent from my HUAWEI P6-U06 using Home Brew mobile app

I dryhopped my IPA 5 gallons six months ago. First four-five months it was way too hoppy, i put 100 grams in there if i remember correctly. Now the hops have faded by maybe 25% and i enjoy the beer more than ever. Sent from my HUAWEI P6-U06 using Home Brew mobile app
