Re: Carbonation and Maturing time in keg
Thanks for the info, was not a hi alcohol beer but it did seem to take a good 4 weeks to stop fermenting I had just left it a little longer to be sure as previous brews were still ferementing in the bottle and fizzing up. What would be the recommended fermentation time?

Bottle - sugar or light dry malt
Just wanted to get some thoughts, I have a Muntons gold cont pilsner to brew up. On the instructions is suggests using spraymalt instead of sugar for the bottle stage. Any thoughts on the advantage of the spraymalt over the sugar? Is this a general option for all beers?

First brews
Just started my first HB on the weekend. Everything is going ok, got a lager and a stout going both at about 22deg going steady. Guy at the home brew shop said fermentation should be finished in 3 or 4 days and then bottle. But reading the posts it looks as though I should wait for a couple of weeks ...
