Welcome to the Borg, Steve! You can find that info ( need to be signed in ), in the trading post section of the forum and in the sub section " Members Only Deals ". Glad you found this great group of brewers, there are many different levels of brewers her that have probably experienced something that you may have a question about, so please ask, somebody should have an answer for you! The BEST piece of advice is BE PATIENT! If not using an hydrometer, keep your beer fermenting for 3 weeks, then bottle per instruction and let condition at room temp for 4 weeks.

welcome to the forum, draeh2020
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain

Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."

Welcome, Steve. You have now entered into the most captivating hobby there is and, at the same time, entered the best web forum of any kind in the WWW. Enjoy the ride and enjoy the beers.
Things men have made with wakened hands, and put soft life into
Are awake through years with transferred touch and go on glowing
For long years.
And for this reason some old things are lovely
Warm still with the life of forgotten men who made them.

Welcome new folks! Its great to see so many new brewers here. Two things I hope to get to try is mead at some point and cider. They're I guess the last frontiers of beer brewing.

Hey Screwy, try making that Nong Cider. You'll like it.

Time for me to step into the world of cider too. Just looked through the cider section and didn't see the Nong Cider recipe out there. Care to post that over there for us cider newbies?
Fermenting: Bucket 1 - Fresh Squeezed IPA; Bucket 2 - Empty

Kegged: Keg 1 - Irish Red; Keg 2 - Cream Ale; Keg 3 - Amber Ale; Keg 4 - APA; Keg 5 - Empty; Keg 6 - Empty; Keg 7 - Empty

Here ya go Screwy.

FrozenInTime wrote:Here is a simple, yet awesome tasting Hard Cider since u mentioned cider, comes from Yankeedag, one of our esteemed members on here. I have made it several times, it rocks!

NONG Cider (2.25 gallon batch):
5 cans of apple juice concentrate (pure, make sure there are NO preservatives added) (I have also used 2.25 gallons of apple cider, must be fresh with no preservatives)
2 pounds white sugar
1 pound lactose (I found this amount too sweet for me so I backed it down to 4 ounces, depends on how sweet you want it, up to you)
3 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 pack Champaign or Lavine 1118 sparkling wine yeast (I use which ever one I can get my hands on)

You can drink this after 3 months conditioning, but I like to condition it atleast a year (my preference, 3 months is fine). You can go without the lactose but plan on atleast a year conditioning.

But of course, the Mr Beer (have not tried the Brew Devil version) is also good, but IMHO not as.

Edit: Want to add, I do not bottle or keg carb mine, I prefer it still (no carbonation).

I've been down for a few weeks so this may be old news but have you found the section we have here for wine mead and cider yet?? You'll see we are divided into several topic sections just scroll down the main page to find what you're interested in.

There are quite a few members who will be able to help get you started.
