    Back sweeten - how?

    OK so if you temp your bench [say 10oz ] then do back sweeten if the 3-5 gallons remaining, does it need to be the same temp or can it remain at room temp or where ever you do your work,

    "Tips and tricks to using a whole house filter"

    if you use pump pressure before the filter, won't you be creating pressure in the carboy/ I can picture in my mind the filter stopping up and pressure increase to a bursting of the carboy, I think you would have to also add a very expensive pressure relief valve as to prevent this, just not...
