I get that the mash strike water ratio is 1.5quarts for every pound I have (at 10 degrees over the desired mash temp) and that Sparge water is 1.5 times the water used to strike (at 165 F) until I hit 1.008 or enough wort is collected. But how many pounds will I use based on the final desired...

Perfectly explained, thanks a lot guys!

Just one more question, if theres an equilibrium like you say,( that by the way I totally believe you )in which the beer cant absorb any more CO2 but is a good final product, why over carbonating happens?

Thanks a lot!!! Ill let you know how it went next time

So maybe at 12psi at 38F will take 2 weeks to carb at a great level and it wont be over carbed?

No I mean on that pressure and temperature, (12psi, 38F), how many days does it take to carb great? At 2.5 carb unit?

So, how many days at 38F,12psi????

Big Floyd, what about time? How many days with that setup?

Guys! Thanks, you've been so valuable. So, I will have a 12 foot line 3/16" and I will place the beer in the keg following [url=http://www.kegerators.com/carbonation-table.php]this carbonation table, which means is going to be at 40F at 12psi. The thing is the chart doesnt says how mAny days...

Hi, I usually place my beer (5 gallons) in my keg and carbonate at 30psi for a week, I mean leaving the co2 tank connected to the keg regulated at 30psi for 7 days. Then when Im going to serve my beer in glasses I turn down the regulator to 5psi and when I press the picnic faucet you literally...

Hi my beer is ready and I want to keg it and bottle it, at what pressure should I carb? how much time do I leave it there? At what pressure should I bottle? How long should the line be? Pleeeeeeease

Hi, to bottle carbonated beer from a Keg, what's the trick? I plan to get the Keg at 3C then, place the pressure at 30 psi (to avoid foaming inside the beer) and using my Counter pressure filler from morebeer.com, from a long line (don't know how long, hope you can tell me) begin dispensing my...

Just barth hops for one hour

John Palmer says that you should sparge with 1.5 times more than your mash and that you should have 1 pound for every 0.5gallons of beer. Correct me if Im wrong please, this is how I would do it (and how I've done it): I want to make 4 gallons of beer with a 1.052 of OG. So I place 4...
