Hi all,
Used a kit for a nut ale but lost some of the wort during transfer (spilled) to fermenter 4 weeks ago. Now have 4 gallons instead of 5. OG and FG were both spot on. The question is whether I sue all of the priming sugar or 4/5 (80%) due to decreased volume. Don't want to have exploding...
Hi everyone... Another newbie question. I found a chocolate oatmeal stout craft beer that I liked. I also found an extract oatmeal stout kit from Midwest. Can I add chocolate to it? When, how much etc... Sorry to be so vague but still pretty new

Ok here's what I know so far. From 24-48 hours bubbles big time in the 3 part air lock. Since then. Pretty much nada. Should I be concerned? I was planning on 14 day fermentation and 14 day conditioning. Am I being paranoid since it's only been a fee days?

Hi everyone, just did my first brew. Midwest oatmeal stout recipe. Got the whole kit for Christmas along with the recipe of the month club. Don't have any idea if I did it write but followed Palmer How to Brew instructions and the recipe. Thanks for all of your posts. I searched more than on e...
