    Easy Bottling Guide

    BTW. If you ever want to do a brett conditioned beer, just add brett to your racking bucket, no extra sugar, and bottle. The Brett will eat any extra residual sugars to carbonate. Just don't bottle with brett until your gravity gets down around 1.008-1.010. If there's more sugar than that, you...

    You can just dial everything back by half. The video is just meant for folks that have very little brewing experience and inexpensive equipment. If you have a pump you've run sani through then I would use that above pouring directly from the kettle. I do not like pouring out of the spout at...
