Belgian Christmas Beer – Part 2

It's now been 10 days since the Belgian Christmas Beer started brewing and it's all calm at The Albion Tavern. The yeast seems to have done its stuff and the CO2 being produced has come down from an initial almost continuous bubbly fart to around one parp every minute. It's ready for the next stage.

Method (continued):
6. Remove the tube from the water and take it off the tap. Close the tap and gently place the cube into the dispensing box, with the tap on top.
7. Leave for another week, releasing the tap every so often to prevent a build-up of gas in the cube. You will see it getting swollen, so I tend to do it every morning. Then I get out of bed and release the tap on the cube. Ithangyew.

That's it for now. Part 3 to come in a week.
