I tasted a little of the left over and it already tasted better then the miller lite im forced to drink.Should be real good as long as i didn't mess up the bottling.

Four days in the bottles seem to be carbing up nice.I put some in a clear plastic bottle so i could watch the progress and right now it seems really hazy but im guessing that will go away.
Also i have them carbing in the same place i was fermenting so the temp is the same at 63f will it take longer to carb at that low temp?

Just remember if they are in clear bottles dont let the sunlight get to them or you'll get a skunky taste. Sounds like you did everything right. Now the hardest part is waiting for them to bottle condition for a while

I have them wrapped up and in the dark
I just put in those so i could watch it come along.Im temped to go taste one just see the difference from bottle time to one week since i tried a sample at bottling.

Had a sample bottle last night.
Good still not enough carb and very hazy hope it goes away. but all around tasty.
Now if i can wait two more weeks.

 

[CATFISHER74]

This three week wait is to much!
I was forced to drink Lite again last night!
I think next time i will brew one that matures really fast till i get a supply going.Any suggestions?

Hefeweizen. These are meant to be drunk young and cloudy.

Trying another sample now and still no head at all on this beer wonder what is going on.
