the company also sells 5 gallon kits, they take **** off the site if its not in stock, email them if you want better answers.


also, they claim the kit was designed for a NYC apartment, hence the size. iirc youve got your own house, so maybe you could expand/upsize a bit.

yup, its a great product. if you're brewing tonight, pop it now. it'll last for a couple days after you pop it. and leave it out of the fridge once you pop it

yes :) but its a great starter size and it'll be easy to manage.

figure 5 gallons is two cases worth of beer, or a full soda keg (which is right around 5 gallons).

however, he could easily manage 3-4 brews at a single time doing 1 gallon batches. its also a great size for testing new recipes

i want this: http://www.minibrew.com/index.php?ma...=index&cPath=5

ill pop it when i get home.

i wasnt aware i needed to store that **** in the fridge, DOH! hopefully its still live.

the problem with the kit i have, is that you ferment it in the glass thing, and the only way to do multiple recipes is to get another fermenter of sorts.

the cold sends the little ****ers into hibernation. they'll probably be fine though. if not you can still pitch it in and hope some that are alive reproduce (if they're alive they will) and ferment the beer. if they're not creating any bubbles in a day or two just head to keystone homebrew with the yeast packet and tell them you need another one

i've got... three... i think

one of the better-bottle.com bottles and two plastic buckets. all very cheap... under $20

repost so it doesnt get lost in the mix of posts.

i think the 1 gallon will suit me for now. thats 10 12oz bottles

needed before consumption.

the remaining living yeast in the mix will continue to do their thing in the bottle. however without the gas (CO2) being able to escape from the sealed bottle it will mix into the beer and carbonate it. it takes a couple weeks for that to occur though.

but, feel free to taste before that... i always did... you'll also see just how much of an affect carbonation has on the flavor and how the flavor changes over time

i dunno if i'll ever like beer. I dont hate it and i'll try different kinds but im just not a fan for some reason.

Also piku if you read this, im only paranoid about burn in because i read stuff from 07 about it. But the tv has stuff to keep it from happening so i'll prob order the tv this week. Plus im not waiting 200 hours to play video games. Thats why im buying the damn thing to begin with lol

well ****. lol. guess it wont be ready for the super bowl. :tst:

Damn, all this discussion about making beer. Too much for my little brain.

I think he does...but I'm really picky with my car as far as modding it goes. He does have a cobra, supra, mustang, 300zx and who knows what else lol.

it's making me thirsty.

i've had my 46in lcd for over a year now, and no issue with burn in or dead pixels.

it's just making me thirsty. :lol:

i'm too hungry to be thirsty right now... but i'm really wanting to brew something now...

i just ate some Chinese food and by some small miracle it was actually really good.

you brew them, i'll drink them :lol:

you're going to be hungry again in 2 hours :lol:

made breakfast finally... cut up some baby potatoes and tossed them in the pan with some hot olive oil, then 4 eggs, scrambled and some cheese... ****ing delicious every time
