My ruby red has been sampled just, and tastes wonderful, But I only got half a glass out and then it stopped due to a lack of pressure, but it has been conditioning for over two weeks, with the correct amount of sugar in. What has happened and what can I do? (I have co2 charges).
Maybe a stupid question but have you checked for blockages?
Otherwise in my limited mind, I would probably use the cO2 to pressurise.
I'll hop on the forum on there, because I made myself a member and get all my ale stuff from the site. I'm just hoping it isn't fucked.Bilboblue said:mscenterh750 said:Cheers bill.

Not had to 'gas up' yet, but seem to recall something on youtube that said basically you just wait til the sound of gas going in stops when you apply it.
Might be worth joining Brewuk.co.uk they have a forum on there where you can ask questions. (or any similar homebrew based forum)

Hi BB. No I haven't tried that yet, I have put it inside, re primed it, changed the cap on the top and have a brew belt around it. I'll give it a gas up once it's been back in the garage for two weeks or so. I'm keeping it warm inside for two weeks at the moment, and I can just make out a frothy head on it, so fingers crossed it will be fine. I took a sample of the stout before kegging and it's grand, also the chardonnay is good and tastes like it could be rocket fuel!. Get yourself on to the brewuk forum it's bloody brilliant.Bilboblue said:mscenterh750 said:After a minor hiccup with my ruby red, it's all going seemingly well.

Did the simple gassing up work?
