What temperature should I brew at?
Try to keep the brew at the lower end of the 21°C–27°C range. Some ways you can do this include storing the fermenter inside at ambient temperature, placing it in an insulated cabinet, wrapping it in a blanket, purchasing a heat belt or placing the fermenter in a tub or sink of cool water.
How do I know when fermentation is finished?
The hydrometer is a calibrated instrument used to determine the Specific Gravity of the brew. It's important to ensure that the final gravity is stable over two days prior to bottling. Signs fermentation is underway include foaming, cloudiness, and a sample drawn from the tap being fizzy.
