Sitting in my closet Is a ris flavored with sailor Jerry's oak for 3 wees and with maybe 2 Oz straight sj rum dropped in on bottling day. This tastes strongly of rum duh, but I hold out hopes for it in another month or more.

All nimbley pimbley

Check one of them sooner than you usually would because you may have an infection that could cause gushers or bottle bombs.

Y'all don't forget to change the breaker for those dryer plugs to a gfci (ground fault circuit interrupter) we don't need anyone getting electrocuted when you're working around water and elecricity. And yeah it's an added cost prolly 50 bucks.

This is a recurring problem for many of us, the best answer I get that you haven't gotten yet is to swirl the carboy to disturb the sediment on the bottom. This is a slow and steady approach that you may as well repeat every few days. ( hell I've started doing it sometimes to healthy brews) I...

The above mentioned beer turned out quite well despite being quite thick and quite spicy my co brewer drank 2 gallons in 3 days and raved about it for months.

Ok I have a question: if I were to have pasteurized a batch that got infected, then bottled it from the keg, would it age any in the bottle?

I take it the guys on this forum are often in a lot of trouble for our brewing obsession. God knows I am.

Strangers leg, tense

So can I pasteurize my mostly finished beer before this infection gets nasty?

Thanks for the great article. This week I learned that stouts need not apply for these methods, they're just too green too long. And this has to be planned out in advance.

Well alright, thanks for the speedy response bud. I'm going to take gravity readings today and tomorrow when I keg it anyway, that and a tasting will tell... But it's my birthday I'll do what I want!

Ok but can this apply to a stout with an og of 1.064 brewed with s 04. I would like to serve it on day 9. I just turned up the temp to 70 on day 6...

Actually I think you should remove all hops completely, especially from a test batch. On one hand you could get an idea of the basic flavors you're dealing with, and I'm betting it would be very close to hop extract anyway.

I bought that beer in single form many times... My cat craved it! Weird cat I know, don't worry he only got a bottle cap full.
