Well, the beer is now bottled. Last Thursday some friends and I siphoned the brew into a bucket (from the fermenter it has been in for a few weeks), mixed in some new sugars for the yeast to consume, and then siphoned it into bottles that we had been collecting ourselves and from friends. We've capped the bottles and the yeast is busy eating the sugar and carbonating our beer. The kitchen still smells like beer and the floor is still a little sticky...but in just over two weeks we'll have homebrew!
The airlock on the fermenter. (All the crud is from what bubbled over when the yeast began working early on in the fermentation).
The fermenter has been in the basement for a few weeks and I brought it up a few hours ago.
(T-shirt credit to my mom) We've removed the airlock and begun to siphon the brew out.
...Jake is holding the siphon hose in the bucket where the fermented brew is mixing with some fresh sugar for the yeast to consume after it's bottled.
Siphoning from the bucket (after sugar was added) into bottles.
Bottles with caps (uncrimped).
The final product...now it just needs 3 more weeks to be ready to drink.
