Thanks for the tip

Thanks I have improved my fermenting buy using a cool brew cooler as far as the bottle condition I have not run in to a problem the beers taste good On a side note I can only get dry yeast here so my options are limited in the yeast categories........[emoji24]

Had to dump all the beer they exploded like champagne upon opening :( lesson learned

Last night I bottled it I have it covered with a Plastic tin I hope no bottle bombs

I used BRY-97 American West Coast Beer Yeast I re-hydrate it per the instructions then I re-pitched using safale s-04 that i just added dry... and it never took off the second time I also forgot to add that I dry hopped it with 3 oz of Mt hood to try and balance the extra sweetness I tasted...

FG stayed the same I guess it's time to bottle as it's not going any lower!!! any concerns or advise on bottling

thanks I just ordered one :) now for this beer since I did re-pitch I am going to let it run it's course and will check in a week and pray i could drop it a bit

update I just Pitched a pack of SF-04 (only thing I had on hand) and will bring it up to 70 to see if it helps kick it off... update to come

thanks for all the reply's I used a hydrometer :(. I think it may be aeration or lack of it better said as there was none (not a mistake I will make any time soon). Current Temp is 68 degrees...... Do you think I should still re pitch or just warm it up a bit?

I brewed this Brutal IPA clone and had a OG of 1.06 but now 2 1/2 weeks in it is "done" fermenting and is at 1.026 I have taken 2 hydrometer readings in the last 4 days and no change in the gravity. Is it safe to bottle? any other thoughts or advice? Amt Name...

Wow you guys rock!!!!!! Thanks so much

Hi This is my first post to the forum and my second batch of beer. The first one did not turn out very well but I think it was because of lack of sanitation and possibly high fermentation temperatures. So for my second brew I have upped my sanitation and used a swamp cooler to try and maintain...
