    Tubing won't dry completely, is this ok?

    I have hung mine after use and everything seemed ok, but next time I went to use them some black spots had appeared where some droplets were.. For the price of tubing I tossed and used new. Now I blow them all out with compressed air and haven't had any issues

    Keg Force Carbing Methods Illustrated

    @sehedw I kegged a light ale on Saturday and have it at 37*F and 10-11psi. I am enjoying it now! It's a little light on the carb but still tasty. I just got a little too anxious to try my first keg batch... ;)

    High FG Gravity?

    I just brewed my first Porter a few weeks ago, and I'm just looking for some advice on it. It is a OBK Pumpkin Pie Porter extract: 9lbs dark LME, 1 lbs chocolate malt specialty grain, 1 lbs lactose , 1 Oz columbus and US-05 dry ale yeast. My OG came in at 1.072, and I had it fermenting...

    First brew, now I wait....and worry.

    Just a quick update. I just did a gravity check on my beer. It smelt delicious just opening the fermenter! I've hit my estimated FG. Closed it all up and will check again Sunday for consistency!

    First brew, now I wait....and worry.

    mOOps - I did the Brewer's Best 1018 American Light Ale. Ale yeast and I monitored the room I am fermenting in for 3 weeks before I brewed. The min it went was 62F and the max was 68F. I do have a box freezer and want to get a ferm temp control for it when I get into lagers.

    True! I'm figuring out too much info can be it's own problem.

    That's all reassuring everyone, thanks! I was going to rack it, but it's only an American light (and I can't wait to drink it! ) so I'm just going to bottle it. I'll let you all know!

    And I just saw the post above making fun of people like me lol. Sorry to bother everyone! But I've had tons of people say home brew tastes awful from their experience. I just want this to be perfect to prove that it can be great!

    First brew, now I wait....and worry.

    I just finished my first brew this weekend. I have wanted to start for about a year but never had the time. In the meantime I've watched tons of videos, read the books and forums, and I felt like I had a good grasp on the process. My brew day went smooth, and I made sure to over clean and...
