User questions & answers

Question:	Is the fermenter's lid supposed to come with a gasket? I just received mine and it did not have one and when I put the lid on to rinse it it leaked
Answer:	It's not supposed to seal. The top of the keg has notches in it to allow it to breathe during the fermentation process. This is why it must be carbonated in the bottles 
Question:	What the percentage of alcohol in the beer? and how can we control it
Answer:	The sugar content and the potential of the yeast determine the potential alcohol percentage. Beyond that, my husband is the brew-meister. I know he's made some that approached 15-16%.
Question:	Can you make the brew start to finish with everything included in this kit? or are there numerous items you must also buy to make the beer? if so what
Answer:	Aimee,You can make a brew from start to finish. In fact, you make 2 with this kit. However, I would gather $10 or so and get a hydrometer to measure specific gravity before and after fermentation to verify alcohol content and if fermentation is complete. You don't have to because this kit includes "Hopped Extract" which means that you don't need to add any Hops to your brew, they did it for you. It is completely ready to go and the results should be the same every time you make a batch. They take all the science out of the process by pre-hopping the extract. Last note: My friends love the Aztec and Bohemian extracts that came with my kit. I have now moved onto All-Grain brewing with the occasional non-hopped extract brew.Good book to read is "How to brew" by Palmer. Hope that helps!
Question:	What is the difference of the premium gold edition from the brewmasters edition? Besides the hat, glasses, and the shirt that won't fit
Answer:	The brewmasters kit comes with craft beer refills and the premium gold comes with standard beer refills. Craft beers are more like your microbrew beers, and standard beers would be more like your Miller, and Coors beers. The craft beers cost a little more. If you go to the Mr. beer website they will have more details. If you are just wanting to see if you are interested in the process of making your own beer I would go with the cheaper premium gold edition if you don't want the extra stuff, then if you like making your own beer you can order the craft refills. Hope this helps.

True Oktoberfest Brew

Germans are known for their beer, and with this Oktoberfest-style brew, it’s clear to see why: this full-bodied, malty beer has a light red hue, some subtle bitterness, caramel sweetness, and a clean dry finish. Oktoberfest beer is typically brewed in the Spring to signal the end of the traditional brewing season, and during the warm summer months is stored in caves. To mimic this aging process, after your beer is carbonated try placing in your own cave for a few weeks before serving (a fridge will also work just fine). Drink beer like the Germans do: enjoying every second of it.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work to fill swing top bottles? Or will it only fill bottles that need to be capped
Answer:	No beard required! Brewing is fun for everyone! Cheers, Northern Brewer
Question:	Does this kit come with a beard
Answer:	This kit is bit too large to do the smaller batches. 5 gallons is really what works best. Cheers!
Question:	Can you scale down the amount you brew with this Kit? I kind of want to make 2-3 gallon batches
Answer:	We provide instructions to make this beer without a carboy. The carboy would be used for a step called "secondary fermentation" which is not necessary for the Block Party Amber Ale. Cheers, Todd J
Question:	Is a carboy required/optional for this kit
Answer:	My towels have a different design, the aqua are the stripes in the middle. So I'm not exactly sure on your design, but I assume it is the same.

User questions & answers

Question:	Ok if the Scoby absorbs some of the plastic due to leeching and the acidic tea then would each batch I make have plastic in it
Answer:	Hello! Thanks for the question and very happy to answer. Your SCOBY will not absorb any plastic. They come packaged in 4 mil poly bags that meet USDA and FDA specifications for food contact, are BPA Free, and a 100% virgin low density polyethylene (#4). Low Density Polyethylene is ideal for food and beverage storage (particularly those with high acidity like Kombucha) and can withstand temperatures between -148 to 176° F without leaching. Kombucha Cultures are packed and shipped in these plastic bags as they are the safest and healthiest for the culture and you.
Question:	I wasn't careful with instructions and covered my Kombucha culture with the lid over the cloth and rubber band for two full days, is this bad
Answer:	The culture should be fine if the lid was on for only two days, but be sure to finish the brew with the lid off and the cloth and rubber band still on.
Question:	When is the addition of flavors done? When steeping, during fermentation, prior to bottling
Answer:	Couple of options. After your first 7-30 day fermentation remove the SCOBY and start a second batch or place in a SCOBY "hotel". You can then add flavors to your fermented Kombucha and bottle and leave at room temp for a day or two (or longer if you want more carbonation). This step is called secondary fermentation as your Kombucha will continue to ferment. After that place the bottles in the fridge (slows down the carbonation process) and enjoy your home brew! You can also leave your kombucha in the gallon jar (after removing the SCOBY), add flavorings to the gallon jar and let that sit at room temp for a day or two and then bottle afterward if that method is easier for you.
Question:	I'm concerned about the amount of sugar that may be in the finished product. I have cancer, & I'm trying to avoid as much sugar as I can. Thoughts
Answer:	I've read that the amount of sugar that remains in the finished product is very little, as the sugar is what the scoby feeds on, so the longer it ferments, the lower the sugar content. I think that brewing your own vs. buying it will allow you to control the sugar content better because you can taste it throughout the fermentation process and decide how sweet you want it.

User questions & answers

Question:	I lost the card with the directions for brewing the tea. Does anyone have it
Answer:	Yes you need to set your welder to electrode negative to weld any flux core wire and electrode positive to weld solid wire using gas.
Question:	What other items will i need to make kombucha (besides the kit)? i am getting as a gift and have no clue what else i need. thanks
Answer:	If your welder is able to run the small spools and has the adapter to run larger spools, then these 10# spools will fit. The description lists them as 7.9" diameter.
Question:	I have been waiting for 4 weeks for the scoby to float to the top.There are a few quarter sized rings floating that look more like mold.Is it bad
Answer:	Dear value customer, the hole diameter of the INE 10 LBS spool is 2.09 inches ( 53 mm ) in accordance to the international standards. Thank you for your interest in INE quality welding wire, MADE in ITALY, proudly for You. Kind Regards. Joe
Question:	do you have to rebuy the whole kit when you finish off everything
Answer:	Any thickness, such as .030 & .035, can weld ANY thickness of Steel. I only use Flux Cored wire, and I typically weld between 20 gauge, all the way up to 1/2" thick plate.There is no limit to what you can & cannot weld, as far as Steel Goes. Iron and Aluminum is another story, however.

User questions & answers

Question:	The packet of hops say add half to boiling wort at 60 minutes. Does that mean for the entire 60 minute boil
Answer:	only use out side with flux core
Question:	How big of a batch does this make
Answer:	Just the 2 lb spool anything larger would not fit.
Question:	Why is this ten dollars more than on the Craft a Brew website
Answer:	and not even welding axes but if plates 3/16 "thick
Question:	What else do I need in addition to the kit? Such as a bucket or bottles
Answer:	I purchased this about a year ago. I would recommend a better visor/helmet and a pair of welding gloves and a heavier slag hammer. The accessories that come with are pretty cheap. As for the machine itself it is pretty much ready to go and a great welder. Whom ever this is for will need to purchase appropriate wire for specific projects. It does come with some generic all purpose wire

Question:	how big of a quart size pot do i need for this

User questions & answers

Question:	How do you get thae IPA flavor
Answer:	You can reach out to us directly at [email protected], and we'll get you a new copy!
Question:	Will this item ship with amazon packaging? Or will the shipment show the what the item is on the box
Answer:	Hey Miki, this kit contains everything your gift recipient will need to start their first batch of kombucha. This also contains the tea and sugar necessary for the first batch, but they will need sugar and tea (black, green, and oolong are best!) for subsequent brews.
Question:	How does the oak aged ale age in oak? Do you need an oak cask
Answer:	Mold would be bad. 4 weeks is a long time, a new scoby should have formed at the top by now. Get a new scoby, one that is in a starter tea. make sure to use filtered water. Chlorine is the enemy.
Question:	Do the beer bottles come with this package
Answer:	You do not need to purchase another kit after the first brew! As long as your SCOBY is healthy, you can brew indefinitely. All you would need to purchase is tea and sugar for your subsequent brews.

Product description

Our Hard Cider Kit makes brewing as easy as (apple) pie (and tastes like it too!) Apples, yeast and honey are all you need to make hard apple cider. The kit includes all the essential equipment for 3 batches of harvest bubbly. You can even bypass the apple juicing yourself for pre-pressed cider from your favorite farmers’ market. Simply add a few packets of yeast to your fresh squeezed apples (or pre-pressed cider) and let science work its magic. After two weeks add three tablespoons of honey to your fermented juice to give the cider the extra dose of sugar it needs to carbonate. A couple weeks later and you’ll be sipping delightfully fizzy Hard Cider by the fire.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this kit come with a recipe book
Answer:	**Warning** I requested it to come in an Amazon box because it was a gift for my boyfriend and it did BUT the label on the box CLEARLY states it’s from Craft A Brew. He found out what it was before Christmas. Still likes it and we are bottling it tonight to see how it tastes and such.
Question:	It says to add 3 tablespoons of honey, but I just want to add regular sugar. Anyone knows how much that would be? Also is the blow-off tube neccessary
Answer:	No you make everything with this kit. The Oak Aged Ale is one of the ingredients you add (if you want to) to the recipe it comes with. I personally did not make this. I bought it for my son and I remember he specifically left it the ingredient out. Hope this helps.
Question:	Can anyone direct me to some Instruction? I can not bring up from website
Answer:	Unfortunately no. You'll need 7-8 16 oz bottles.
Question:	Why only three batches? It is because the kit only includes enough supplies (like sanitizer) for three batches, or can you only use the equipment 3x
Answer:	That's a great question. When boiling 5 gallons of liquid (20qt), you should use a stock pot that is at least 20 quarts in volume. Ideally, you would use a pot that is 24qt or 28qt so you have enough extra space to avoid a boil-over. However, you can also use a smaller pot and boil a concentrated batch. You would then just add water after you are done boiling to adjust to the proper volume. There are some disadvantages of using this method but it can be done if needed.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a extract or an all grain kit
Answer:	This is an extract kit
Question:	Do bottles come with kit? I see that it comes with bottle caps
Answer:	No. Bottles are not included with the kit. The kit only contains the ingredients to make the beer plus bottle caps and priming sugar. You will need to have bottles, and equipment required to make the beer (like brew kettle 3 gallons or larger, fermenter, capper, hydrometer etc...).
Question:	Followed the instructions pretty strictly, and after two days i get no sign of fermentation (lock is not bubbling)? Do i toss it? or is there hope
Answer:	Don't toss it. Yeast may have already completely fermented. If you think fermentation is not complete, gently rock the fermenter a few times a day to rouse the yeast back into suspension. If the airlock or lid or stopper is not making a good seal, there will not be visible activity in the airlock. Lastly, take a gravity reading to know whether fermentation is complete.Cheers,DIY Craft Beverage
Question:	How many bottles of beer do this kit make
Answer:	Thanks for your question! This kit is a 5 gallon kit, and after fermentation, will yield approximately 53, 12oz bottles.
