    Explosion-proof?

    Hi there, Presently I do not intend to have any batches end up in many small bottles, but rather 1 or 2 larger bottles. I am wondering whether there are any options for final bottling that ensure no explosions are possible due to priming sugar miscalculations or fermentation. As a novice in...

    Sanitizing first batch of hard apple cider

    Thank you all for the helpful tips! I went ahead and ordered some StarSan for the peace of mind. My new concern is the whole "bottle bomb" phenomenon. If were to theoretically rack this batch into a new jug and from there simply siphon it into a keg for drinking, would I be correct to assume...

    Sanitizing first batch of hard apple cider

    15 hours in, the batch of cider in the carboy looks much darker than the juice bottle experiment and the foam on top is way thicker. The original resource I used for the juice bottle cider suggested consuming it after 3-10 days. However, subsequent research has told me that several weeks is a...

Since it is only 2L it did not...

    Introducing, me

    Hello. Glad to be here. I know pretty much nothing about homebrewing and hoping to learn! Over the last 18 months I have started cutting my own hair, so I figured this is the next logical progression.

    The "Dear" , "Sincerely" thread

    Dear Home Depot employees, I am sure you are all very busy, but it always feels like there are 4 of you working in a 105,000 square foot store and it takes about 35 minutes to walkie talkie the right person for my specific needs. Sincerely, Understanding, but still miffed, customer.

    Sanitizing first batch of hard apple cider

    Hi there, I recently watched a video describing fermentation of apple juice by sprinkling some Fleischmann's Traditional Dry Yeast in the container and leaving it for about 3-10 days with the cap only sitting on top. I tried this very basic method last night without using an airlock and this...
