do you need a linsence to buy a beer home brewery, or to brew at home? i think it'd be a good gift for my father for Christmas, but want to make sure everything's legal in good old Massachusetts before purchasing anything. thanks.

@888pineapple888 Nope, not required.

hi Craig, can the beer be stored in a large holding bucket to be bottled at a later point? or will it ruin the beer faster?

Thanks Mal (Australia)

@Malconomics You can transfer it into a carboy, avoiding the sediment, and it will keep in there for months. Keep it in the dark.

Hey Craig, after bottling your beer how long do you store it before drinking it????

great i just found that video before i was about to bottle my beer. i got the same kit and i am happy that i pretty much did everything as you did ;) so now it means waiting... Craig, do you think, you should store the bottles (i brewed wheat beer) in a cool place (fridge) to finish the process?

@randy3251 From my experience you get about a 1cm thick layer of sediment at the bottom and it doesnt get sucked up into your bottles during bottling, unless you tip the fermenter over too much when youre trying to get the last few drops of beer out

@888pineapple888 how much sediment is left in the bottom of the bucket sfter fermenting? Just wanted to no if you get any sediment in the first few bottles if you only use one bucket

Hey Craig, do you need to worry about sediment getting into your bottles when bottling?

hi I am new too home brewing and i was just wondering how long you should leave the bottled beer before putting it in the fridge, no one likes a warm beer right? but thanks a lot for the video it was very helpful. :)
