Whew!! Thank you very much for your help.

I already degassed and finings. Been sitting like that for around 5-6 weeks.

Hello all. I've a cab in a secondary for around 5 or 6 weeks now. Kit said to keep in there for 2 weeks. Unfortunately, there was too much going on with home and life, and it has now sat for around 6 weeks in there. I was planning on bottling this weekend, but want to make sure its still worth...

Any advice here on the best Amarone kits out there? It's my favorite wine, but at $50 plus per bottle, I'm looking for a great kit to make it more affordably. Thank you.

No oak.

Hello all, In the midst of my first attempt at wine. Doing a Cab kit. Moved wine to secondary on 11/27/16. My kit instructions said to let it sit in secondary for only 5 to 7 days, then move to bucket and degas. As today is 12/8/16 and 11 days in the secondary, and I probably cant move to...

Was this is then secondary or primary?

Many Thanks!

I have two one gallons jugs finishing up fermenting. Can I simply add the appropriate amount of priming sugar and a bit of cinnamon extract to two empty one gallon jugs, transfer contents of primary jugs, seal up and let condition for a few weeks, then drink?

was going to add ground, but perhaps extract is a better option.

Ok, been brewing only beers, but have now attempted my hand at a hard cider. I currently have two one gallon jugs fermenting. One was made with adding brown sugar, the other I added frozen apple juice concentrate. Pectic enzyme added to both for clarification. It's been 2 weeks and it appears...

Great advice! Thank you.

Actually want to get around 5-6 pounds of butternut squash in this one as I've heard this it what Shalafly puts in their pumpkin, and that one is my favorite!!!

Not sure why the need. It's Northern Brewers pumpkin extract kit. Uses 6.30 lbs pale liquid malt extract, 1 lb dry malt extract and .5 lb caramel 40 They say if using pumpkin (6 lbs or so), to add 2 lbs rahr 6 row.

Getting another pumpkin ale going this weekend. Instructions say that if adding real pumpkin, I need to also add 2 lbs rahr 6 row. My LHBS does not have rahr 6 row. Is there something I can use instead in the event I can't locate it? Thank you.

Still bubbling at 8 per minute? Nope...let that sit another 2 weeks. You will be just fine.

I've had a pumpkin ale sugar conditioning in a keg for 4 weeks now. Tomorrow it will get hooked up to gas for serving. Question......do I relieve pressure from keg before putting it on gas, or just leave as is?

I currently have a pumpkin ale carbonating in a keg. I had added sugar to the keg for sugar carbonation. Once ready to go on tap (about another 2 weeks), do I leave my serving PSI at 10, or do I lower it in fear of over carbonation being the beer is already carbonated?

When looking at the grain ingrediants on a bottle of beer, do brewers list the grains in order of % of the grain bill or is it just any random order? I ask, as I'm attempting a Schlafly pumpkin clone and the grains listed are Pale, crystal, munich, wheat and chocolate. Final ABV should be...

Not on gas yet. Just conditioning in keg with corn sugar.
