Thank you for the help, I didn’t have a chance to get round to these messages but I did refer to this on bottling day. I did half and half basically. I used a tsp of dextrose for 20 bottles and the rest I dumped one mr beer carb drop in them. none has blown up yet so I not as worried as I...

That’s sounds like a very weird scenario. what temperature was it kept at and what did you use for priming sugar? I’m quite new to brewing but il be happy to try and give an educated stab in the dark 👍🏻

I’m almost ready to bottle my porter but I was wondering what would better to use as priming sugar. i bought carb drops and I have corn sugar as well, now I’m going to prime the bottles as I go. I was just wondering what would be better to use and how much per 500ml bottle. Unfortunately I...

Thank you, I’m going to follow your advice on this one. you’ve been a massive help 👍🏻

I’ve just noticed you use it instead of the sugar 😂😂 Is it better than using sugar ??

Thank you I wasn’t sure if I could use that sugar from priming. The kit didn’t come with sugar, it’s just one can with yeast and hop pellets. I was going to use that sugar anyway but I noticed that it’s only 4% so I was wondering if I could up it without ruining the flavour too much with the...

Thank you. This has helped a lot. I am quite new to this and this is my 3rd brew. I need to invest in another bucket first. as long as it’s possible this time round and it won’t ruin the beer I’m happy. the last two were an utter disaster but this one seems to be going very well. I will...

Thank you 👍🏻 this has put my mind at ease a little bit

Thank you for that. It does look like it’s stopping but I wanna leave it as long as possible. as for bottling, I have the bottling wand but I was going to do it from the tap? Is that ok do to or should I go in at the top ?

Hey I’m doing the festival Pride Of London Porter beer kit and I put the hops in a bit too early. Will this effect the beer quality? ive Decided to leave it in primary fermentation for 2-3 weeks whereas the kit said 10 days. I put the hops in on the 6th day, is this ok? also I’m bottling...
