Don't do less than 1 week. 2 weeks is a general good rule of thumb. Higher alc leave for a 3rd week
I saw but it's way to much work. I have 20l at most to cool so this is perfect for me
Just bought soft copper tubing and easily bent it into this shape. Will run ice water through it with a pump from a cooler box. Was about 60 rand a meter. Sure you can buy it cheaper elsewhere though. Sold at gas shops not hardware stores or atleast not the 3 I looked at
I typically give it 3 days; which is more than enough time for the yeast to consume the priming sugar and carbonate the beer. Pop one in the fridge and give it a try.
You brew a lot. What do you do with all of it?
I have thirsty friends... they switched over to just my brews during the booze ban, and now they're hooked.
what pump are you using?
It's a 800l an hour pump paid 250 for it... The coil is 8m so it only does 800ml a minute Wish I got slightly bigger pump likely going to get slightly bigger if not double. But I can now make massive ice cubes and toss them in the cooler massive like make a ice cube in a pot and add a few during the cooling process. I just did 3kg of ice and it was finished at 65 deg I didn't have more it will cool even quicker with massive chunks of ice
Total time in fermenter? And how long not bubbling? How big is the bucket for example 25l and how full?
A week, 10L bucket 9L full.
