A week later, the 1st fermentation was over. FG was 1.016 at 15c. When I checked the gravity days ago, it was 1.020. I cannot wait anymore. Today I will bottle this one.
Sanitize a spoon, a hopper, a bottle filler, bottle caps and plastic bottles. Decided to not dry inside bottles perfectly. I hoped that a few drops of no rinse sanitizer might spoil nothing.
Put the airlock off, looking at the fermented wort. Found no bubbles on the surface. The airlock without any movement made me nervous for a whole week. My thought went beyond the wildest nightmare. I was suffering the imagination that I had to pour 14 liters of the polluted wort into the sink every night.
In home brewing communities, so many people talk differently about how much priming sugar is needed for a 1-liter bottle. The extract can I used was for 20 liters of wort. I made 14 liters. There must be too much sugar in it. 5 grams of priming sugar won't be any problem. (Actually, there IS a problem, though)
Someone advised denting a plastic bottle by pinching it to avoid bottle exploding with too much gas. I did as I was said. I have 13 and a half bottle of young beer now. Room temperature is 21. Hope to see bottles will be stone hard soon.

학과에서 단체 견학으로 4/21부터 29까지 약 일주일 독일 뮌헨에 다녀왔다. 지난 학기 센서리 과목을 맡았던 아드리안 교수가 인솔했는데, 예전에 독일에서 수학한 경험이 있는 분이라 견학 프로그램을 알차게 짜주셔서 재밌게 다녀옴. 뮌헨에서 가장 유...
