Dude, if you would spend 20 seconds googling the brand, you would see there are different models. Mine was about 20 bucks more than his, still within his budget. Man, get a life.

Mine will display for example, 5.25. Its been right on with everything I have benchmarked it to. Enough on this. I'm happy, that's all that matters.

The one I have same manufacture states. .05 accuracy.

Ditto on Brewbama's recommendation. I own one of these and it is very accurate.

Sitting that long, I would definitely sink them. I put them in a go sack and load them with sanitized marbles.

Highland Brewing Company, Asheville, NC. Try Big Butte Smoked Porter, Black Mocha Stout, or Highland Gaelic....

If no carbing, if you top with juice, you can add a campden tab and potassium sorbate to stop the fermentation. I let mine sit a couple of months to clear, but cold crashing may speed it up.

Let it sit and siphon off carefully. You risk oxidation with your idea.

I just store mine in the basement at 65 F .

I've had it at 1.00. It is pretty dry/tart at that. I carbonate to offset the dryness some. Also, my drier ciders always seem to taste better after a long aging (6 months or so)... I usually backsweeten to 1.006 - 1.008, that's what suites me, but it's all personal preference...

My ciders usually take at least 20 days to ferment out. It can still go lower.

1. Will dilute wort. 2. Sanitation concerns.

Oh Madcore man, I just drove through your town today going from Indiana to Georgia.... Should have come by and checked your batch out... Sounds good....

Looks like you have thought it out thoroughly. I would let it sit at least 3 weeks to ferment out. Would be nice to get hydrometer, should finish around 1.0. Your priming measurements work out to about an ounce of sugar, which should be about right per gallon. If I let it ferment out, I never...

So I would use a priming calculator - all depends on temperature, how much carbonation, which sugar, you use. Try Brewers Friend or Northern Brewer.

Freezing won't kill yeast. Could make them a little lazy. I store yeast frozen.

This beer has depth and character. How's that for a review!

Gumball Head Wheat. Refreshing spring beer.

Agree with Phug. But you could make a small starter, then use it if fermentation takes off.

I just cheated and chilled and opened a bottle after 7 days. Fine beer. Very fine. Exceptional, as is. Good malty wholesomeness. Will brew again.
