Ballen194 Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 Never brewed any beer before but I'm partial to seasonal brews. Pumpkin spice beers is my favorite and wouldn't mind trying brewing if I could afford it.

bre2ts Posted July 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 When time to bottle it up dont move the fermentation tank at all! Or it will get floaters in the beer. All the junk settles to the bottom of the tank so dont shake or move it around. They say to put it in a dark place to let it do its thing so plan to bottle in that spot to keep from stiring it up. And after you bottle it up make sure you use bottle that can handle the preasure. Watter bottles will pop. I use 20oz drpepper bottles on my beers and it did perfect i will be using a deep freezer with a temperature controller as a fermentation chamber. and will be using pop tob style beer bottles for bottles. so we started infusing the bourbon with the bacon we will let it sit for 2 - 3 weeks then we will soak either hickory or mesquite chips in it. but on another note, i don't want to brew my own beer because there is a lack of good beer out there want to brew it cause it fun, and very rewarding.

Its alot of fun brewing beer but its not real cheap. But its worth the wait and cost to beable to bottle amd carbonate your owne beer. I used suger to carbonate my beer and then put in the frig for a week. Worked perfect. Got to be carfull not to use to much suger or it will bust the bottles from over presuring it.
