Hi all. I'm in the process of my first ever brew. Just wanted to ensure I have this process correct and if not what I need to do / change...
So, the beer has been fermentation for around 10 days and seems to of gone well. I'm currently just getting reading and they seem to be the same and consistent each time at 1.012 which is good as recommended on the instructions for this beer is 1.014.
So, once I've done 1/2 more readings to be doubly sure are these steps correct...
Sanitise pressure barrel and other tools and rinse clean.
Using a tube (included in kit) transfer beer into the pressure barrel.
Add sugar. Up to 100g (instructions direct) normal white sugar??
Tighten lid, leave in a warm place for a further 2/3 days.
After this, can it then be put somewhere cooler or cold? As such as the garden for a few weeks? Or will it need to still be indoors but not so warm as before?
Thanks for any help you can give.
