Beer Making Part 2

Sorry it has been so long since I posted. The beer was bottled back on the 10th and we tasted it on the 17th. It is really good! I think we are making another one on Saturday.

So first we had to clean all the bottles, if I remember correctly we had to clean 23 bottles and we managed to fill 22. We also sanitize the bucket, hose and the bottles.

Once everything is clean we add sugar and half a cup of hot water to the bucket. Then we siphon the beer from the carboy to bucket.

Now it's time to bottle! We attach a smaller hose to the main hose and then start. It takes about 20min with two people. I put the beer into the bottle and Marc caps them.

The beer!









So that's the process we go through to make our beer.
