    Mold? Can i rack around it?

    Should I dump it or rack around it? It's only just forming and looks like mold in the secondary. I have 2 full gallons and calculated wrong so I wound up with this 3/4 gallon here with way too much head space. Figured I'd take my chance and this is week 3. I'd of course rather not dump it, I...

    Just Racked Kinda Watery Taste

    Don't get me wrong it tastes pretty good and I know that the taste does improve with aging. Racked after 2 weeks in primary. Planing on leaving it in the secondary for at least 3 weeks, maybe longer since I have 3 gallons split up into 3 1 gallon carboys. However the taste was just a bit...

    Universal Carboy Bung too wide (So I trimmed it)

    I ordered the small ones and they were a hair too big. Nothing I could get in and trust my i was trying my best. Now what I did (and I love to just get the peace of mind from you experts) was take an xacto and taper it off a little more as I noticed the rubber was pretty thick. Do I just buy...

    Really Dirty 1 Gallon Carboy...is it worth it?

    Secondary with a Spigot Question

    Hi me again with the n00b question. The kit I bought came with a bottling bucket with a spigot. Identical to the one I have fermenting, just with a spigot in the bottom. My questions are should I worry about leaving it in there when I move to the secondary about the spigot? Can I bottle...

    Noob: Cracked Airlock, cause for worry?

    Hey Guys, I just started my first cider/brew ever. Came home from work to happily discover that my airlock was bubbling. The disappointed to notice a small hairline crack down the side. The vodka looks to be leaking only slightly, nothing more than a miniscule drop. I applied some scotch...

    First Time Brewer - Rhino Fart Question

    I live in a fairly small apartment with my girlfriend. I have the whole area mapped out as to where this concoction will go, but my main concern (and I'm sorry in advanced as I know this has been asked 1000 times) is Rhino Farts. Here is my question and idea: If I was to take an empty...
