Re: yeast & caps

One additional question. Once you start to drink this how long will it hold carbonation -- is it pretty much a sit and drink it all at once?

yeast & caps

I have two questions. How tough would it be to make a 3 litter version of the ez-cap to work with my tap-a-draft kit?

Re: Easy / Awesome dark beer!

My point was Magnum is strong enough that even a small amt will equal the bitterness in a stadard american 'premium' lager. Would take a good deal more than 1/2 for a barleywine or an IPA but only a fraction of what it would take with other hops as it is nearly 14%. Great for the long boil however i...

Re: Beer kits now for sale on eBay !

Cant imagine what it would be now. I make beer with a set of carboys and have a kegerator and it works great for m...

bulk yeast

I am only interested in making beer not wine or other beverages. Beer yeast comes in a limited number of package sizes (usually enough to make 5 gallons) how do you adjust this for 2 litters? How do you measure the right amount and how do you store the remaining yeast to prevent contamination?
