Hi, I have been crossing a few Ale recipes in Books. I have a doubt about temperatures on the secondary that normally are very low temperatures comparing whit the primary fermentation. For example normally Ale recipes the primary goes around +- 18º C ​to 23º , but on the secondary i...

It has the F&%$#" refractometer that hasnt calibrated! :mad: Thanks for all the help

Hi, I used a refractometer. The mash temperature was around 70ºc and 65ºc. Didn't aerate. And the i used is fermentis S04. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I'm trying to produce a high gravity ale beer, Original gravity: 1.098, Final gravity : 1.024, but after a month the fermentation is stable a 1.055! Fermenting, at temperature of 18º C. What should i do, bottle or wait? Thanks.

I added 105.6 grams of sugar in 200ml of boiled water, for a volume of 17.78L of beer. I used beer tools to calculate the amount need. Right or wrong its done :) The hardest part patience for waiting, and that does come on home-brewing books :)

Hi, I already bottle the beer, but im thinking on using DME in the future to adjust gravity. The thing is, i don't know what kind of DME should i pick. Any tips? Cheers (:

Can it be at 18 Cº ? Its max on my wine freezer!

Hi, I didn't put any DME. And didn't change to second fermenter. I made a reading today, 1012 +- gravity. Tasted doesn't have a lot of aroma, but the acid smell vanish after a few min, in the flavor de same thing, and i notice carbonation working. These are good signals?

According to my instructions the estimated final gravity is 1011 SG. The gravity before i close the fermenter was 1054. A ignorant question. How to do i increase or reduce the gravity in the production? Thanks :)

Hi, 10 days for the 1 fermentation? Is a bit to much? My instrutions says 4 days, then pass to the 2 fermenter. Thanks,

Hi, Made my first batch! Its a Belgian dubble, but the smell that comes out from the fridge, is bitter like sour. Is it normal?

Yes i have the fly sparge. I still don't find the boil temperature for the 90 min. Or is the same on the "mash step"?

Thanks a lot, that really help me. Any idea a how long should the fly sparge take? Cheers :)

Hi, Thanks for every one for replying! Here is a copy of my instructions: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gmhz2mp5cg27p2x/2014-07-12%2020.02.51.jpg The reference i find is gravity, but that way i dont know how to had the hops. Thanks again, Cheers

Hi, I bought a all grain malt kit to brew, I have doubts in the instructions. According to the instructions, I have to fly sparge for for 75 min at 65 c temperature. The problem is on the "boil wort" instructions doesn't any reference about the time to boil or temperature, only volume and...
