    My DIY cider

    Anyone grow hops in northern kentucky?

    Lol, I know how much they are I just thought if I bought them off someone near bye that I could get some insight on how they do it and then maybe I would have some luck.

    Blonde Ale Centennial Blonde (Simple 4% All Grain, 5 & 10 Gall)

    I made this again Sunday, I'm always changing things around and was wondering this time. I put some yeast nutrient in with it this time and Monday it was bursting from the seems and when I got home yesterday to check it, it looks like its pretty much finished fermenting?

    Blonde Ale Centennial Blonde (Simple 4% All Grain, 5 & 10 Gall)

    Really! I thought that there had to be nutrients in the water for the yeast to feed on, I have a tester and my water goes from 160 ppm down to about 10 when I check my RO water?

    Blonde Ale Centennial Blonde (Simple 4% All Grain, 5 & 10 Gall)

    I was wondering if anyone could help me. I'm gonna brew 10 gallon of this tomorrow and I'm gonna use RO water. Can anyone tell me exactly how much gypsum or calcium to add to my water? Also should I try and use a yeast protein?
