Primary has now almost complete 10 days in. Which had very weird airlock activity. I'm going to dry hop in secondary. But should I wait until primary has completed Wait until primary had completed and wait a few days for rest. Or just transfer straight away

Looks like a small blow out

This what it looks like over the last hour or so. Give it a another hour it wil be going like a gooden then just stops dead The krausen looks very dense Could it just be traped gas. Then once pressure builds it releases. Then The krausen may seal over.

Not quite just bubbles normally just quick . Then after a few hours halts. Also it a 1.051 beer. If no change by tomorrow going to test and see where it is at

Hi guys this is a bit weird On one of my FVs the airlock stops and starts at random. And it's not minutes but hours. It can be bubbling away like a train then just stop dead. A few hours later it goes again. Temp is stable at 21C Airlock is not block or too full. I'm stumped.

Well krausen forming and smells amazing. But very low activity from the air lock positive pressure but only 1 very small bubble every minute or so.

That was way too late to start but did enjoy doing it. Plan to leave for 2 extra days in primary after fermentation has stopped. For diacetyl rest. Don't no if I need to but I'm sure it will not hurt anything. Then ten days in secondary with 50g - 75g of each hop. For dry hopping . Is that...

Just Wilkos wine yeast nothing special. After tasting don't think will need back any back sweetening. Slightly tart and dryish and winey if that's even a word [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]

After many attempts I finally have a dryish WOW

Are local sainsburys sells them too. Punk IPA. 330ml and Ltr bottles also the dead pony club and 5am saint

Will causing a vortex be a issue of dragging in Oxygen, will the stabilizes stop the oxidation. Or I'm I just talking rubbish :)

I've been using wine kits for a while now and degas them every time, but making wows or even fruit based ferments, is it necessary to degas them. Don't no if this is right but is it Co2 and SO2 when the stabilizer is added?

Is ASDA Pressed white grape juice any good as not bad price £1 1ltr And 17.2 g sugar Granted not for use in a fine wine but. Should a good base for a WOW

1 gallon RGJ and pomiganite 1 gallon RGJ, strawberry, blackberry and cherry 1 gallon RGJ and blackcurrent 1 gallon WGJ and peach 5 gallons pino 5 gallons barola Total 119.5 Gallons

Just checked ingredients 10% fruit juice with sugar and sweetner. May get some and put in a wow as back sweetener though

Hi guys just at the British home store aka B and M. Both red and white welches grape juice 69p has sweetners though

It's a 3 gallon stock pot ( I think anyway) 2 brews one batch. :( May add some some fuggles too with a little more crystal also have some Nottingham yeast but think that may be a bit expensive for a small brew. Mind ticking over now :)

Many thanks Dave. Forgot about the amount of loss due to small amouts of liquid

Tried fitting wide tube but no joy. Changing to lever style. Thanks guys
