    1st post. Real world question on carbonating 7 to 18bbls of beer

    Evening folks. Boris here. I have a real world question on using the carbonating calculator that's provided to us here on the site. I understand it's for homebrewing and I have used this very calculator when I was homebrewing but now I've made it to the 'pro' level and our method for carbing...

    Suggestions for Quick-Carbing Hop Water?

    I'm fixin' to make 2 5-gal batches for a fest this weekend and am curious about carb level for this beverage. I like the level Lagunitas uses in Hoppy Refresher. I just have no idea to gauge how much pressure to use to achieve that 'soda water' level of carb without the body of a beer in play...

    Over Carbonated Keg

    My last two brews I have had a problem with over carbonation. I have a quick carb lid and followed the directions as I have done in previous brews and packaging. I have tried everything to uncarbonate the beer from disconnecting the gas, purging the keg, letting it sit for hours etc. My...

    Carbonation

    Hello everyone I would ask if somebody can help me with advice on how to make a forced addition of co2 to beer. After completion of the primary fermentation the beer is filled into bottles. So far I have done carbonization so I added dextrose. Is possible to make forced carbonization in...

    What if (Oatmeal Stout)

    I brewed an Oatmeal Stout ealier this month. I am planning to bottle it in 5 days. I choose this kind of stout because of the oatmeal flavor. What if I add half a pound of oatmeal with my carbonate solution (which would be 500ml of boiled water, 3 oz of maple syrup)?

    flat bottled lite

    I made up a five gallon batch of American light from extract and bottled it three weeks ago. Followed the directions pretty closely but it's just barely carbonated. Mixed the priming sugar in the bottling pail, so I know I didn't forget it. It's pretty tasty so I sure don't want to toss it. Do...
