    Slow fermentation or there isn’t. Help me plz

    Exactly. I checked after 14 days by using a refractometer and the reading was 1.019. I was worried that the fermentation has not finished, and needed to buy hydrometer ASAP to know where I was at. But it turned out that I was doing well and still I can know my FG by using a refractometer...

    I thought I’ll use Campden either powder or tablets. Yes I can buy it from US or UK Amazon and get it. It would take approximately 2 weeks to arrive.

    Based on the videos on YouTube, they cook the rice first then they add it after.

    I see , but is there a way to get rid of chloramine, without adding tablets since I have no access to them? As far as I understood, leave the water for 2 days is gonna help the chlorine issue only.

    Perfect , so in order to reduce oxidation during racking, and since I don’t have those tablets, I’ll just put my water into my to my kettle that I’m going to mash the beer with, and open the lid for 2 days. Do I have to boil the water for 20 minutes before adding my grains for any good reason?

    I notice some small little white circles. Not sure if they are air bubbles that stay the same and not disappear, or something that I don’t know what it is. Does that mean my beer is spoiled? Can you check m the video please

    Well, I believe i did it very well. Took the 6 row barley form the bakery and followed the instructions on youtube from cleaning, moistening, drying, cleaning again then roasting. I live in Between Egypt and Iran, my country is the big one I suggest you check it on the map 😁 It’s very helpful...

    What a shortcut to understand fermentation and carbonation. Thank you very much. I’ll leave it more 9 days to have total of 14 days in the fermentor if you suggest that, also for the refractometer it was from the wort after boiling and leaving the bottle in refrigerator for 4 days without...

    Thank you very much. I hop the lid isn’t that tight, cuz when I was adjusting the airlock i did it 90% correct, had to drill a hole …etc which isn’t something I’m familiar with. For the link, it’s a lot of info that sounds really helpful regarding my situation, but I need to understand the...

    Thank you so much for this feedback. Gravity of 1.043: After I finished boiling the wort 5 days ago, I tried to measure my gravity but the refractometer I had by that time didn’t work well ( cuz i left it in star san for a bit), so i took a sample directly from the wort after boil in a small...
