Thanks guys. Apologies for the slow reply but my daughter hasn't been too well. A lot of great information from all of you I really appreciate it and I have certainly taken it on board. Happy brewing everyone

Around 16-18 Its just the settled sediment that is causing the issues, clarity is fine, until the end of the pour

The wherry has been in the bottles for 16 days. I used s-04

Yeah i know. The sediment in the stout stays in the bottom. Whereas the wherry comes away when poured, kind of flaky

Bloody sediment!! I currently have 2 different brews in bottles, a wherry and a stout. Both have sediment in the bottom of the bottles, not a massive problem with the stout as it stays there. But it is really spoiling the wherry. When i pour it i get a load of **** in the glass. Anything i can...

Ok thanks for the advice everyone, i'll leave it where it is for a few days, then put it in the fridge for a couple weeks, then cross my fingers. Im certainly not giving up, going to start my 2nd one on wednesday. Cheers!

Its a coopers cerveza kit with brewing sugar, seemed simple enough to start with. I tried it before i transferred it and it seemed ok, no vinegar taste. I tried it the about a week ago and it wasnt there, however i watched the footy the other day and had a pint and noticed it then. Nothing has...

Yeah it was just a kit not going to be too adventurous just yet. I sanitised everything that came in to contact with it, or so i thought. I transferred it straight from the fv to the pressure barrell. So would you suggest popping it in the fridge for a while, see if it gets better? Im not put...
