  • Thanks for the video. I have a couple questions. When you add the corn sugar to carbonate the brew that has been fermenting for six days or so, do you pour it right in with the brew? It looks like you poured it into another empty bucket in the video. You mentioned a "carboy." What's that?

    Can I use plastic bottles with screw tops? Like soda bottles? I don't care about the aesthetics of bottles because I like beer from a glass.

  • yes, you add it to the brew directly after it has finished fermenting and you are ready to bottle. shake it around for about one minute and then you're ready to bottle.

    no, do not use plastic or use screw top bottles. always use glass and pop off bottles. get yourself a bottler from a brewing place and start collecting bottles (not screw tops though).

  • What temperature do you keep the bottles at? How long does it take to carbonate? Thanks, great vid.

  • best to keep it at room temperature and away from the sun. keeping it in the closet is a good idea. it should take about 2 weeks to carbonate.

  • for the 2 weeks the beer is in the bottle to you keep it cooled? or do you keep it at room temp?

  • best to keep it at room temperature and away from the sun. keeping it in the closet is a good idea.

  • You forgot to mention sanitizing the beercaps. A brew can go bad by that aswell. Other wise, pretty solid video. Everything people need to know.

  • BEER IS GOOD

  • "Like so".. dump! lol. Good video. Thank you.

    

  • INTERESTING.

  • itll be ready to drink in about 2 weeks?? thats a terrable thing to end the video with haha

  • What kind of milled grain did you use?

  • He never says to empty out the bucket after cleaning it with bleach lol

  • After you bottle you need to wait two weeks before you drink? He said something like that at the end.

  • never bottle beer like that use a bottle filler there cheap. not to mention filling bottles in that fashion introduces oxygen in the beer , which is very bad. oxygen should only be added before fermentaion begins

  • no filtering. airlock on the ground. WTF

  • was that airlock on the fucking floor. WTF

  • nice
