Superbowl weekend, a good friend showed me how he brews using a really cool fly sparge system. He gave me 5 gallons of a Stone IPA clone that we made together in a fermenting bucket to bring back home from NJ to OH. I've had it sitting since then, so 3 weeks.
So, a couple of questions. (I'm completely new to this)
1. I've read the process for bottling, and I'm curious as I head to buy the equipment, is there a list of recommended items/brands somewhere you would suggest?
2. Is there a video you would suggest I could watch as I bottle that takes me step by step.
3. This being the third week of fermenting (dry hopped it last weekend), how much longer can I leave it in the bucket before I threaten the integrity of the recipe/beer?
Thanks so much in advance!
