How to improve freshness bottled beer? How cold do you keep your beers? Just covering all the bases, but as temperature drops, so can flavor. |

What to expect from champagne yeast? I guess I didnt address this as much as I should have. An ale yeast and a champagne yeast will produce different flavors, obviously. I wouldnt ferment wort with a champagne yeast and expect good results. |

What to expect from champagne yeast? Use ale and lager yeasts for beer. For a sweeter, stronger beer, ensure that you simply pitch enough viable yeast to get the job done since your beer is high gravity. Try a champagne yeast on something like a cider for good results. |

How to Sterilize Bung and Hole while Maintaining a Strong Seal? I've also used zip ties. You can also buy a carboy cap instead. |

What volume of brewer's yeast to use for yeast-nutrient-less dandelion wine? Ah, I see now. Unfortunately, I do not think that pitching more or less yeast will lessen the damage by not having nutrient. Its possible that pitching less yeast would be better since they would eat up fewer of the already scarce nutrients, but then again, they may never finish the job. You will at some point in wine making need to get a simple hydrometer, so you can tell whether the yeast you pitched did in fact ferment all the way. If not, you can buy some nutrient online (inexpensive and should last you) and repitch. Wine needs nutrient, no way around it I fear. |

What volume of brewer's yeast to use for yeast-nutrient-less dandelion wine? OG is original gravity. If you took a gravity reading with a hydrometer once the water and other items were mixed, this would be your OG. If the OG is really high, then you may need more energizer to ensure the yeast can power through all of the sugars without caving under the increasing alcohol content. I've never done wine, but I think you sometimes deliver energizer at the outset, and then again at a specific gravity to allow it to finish. |
