Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermeter?
Ok, got all my stuff from Midwest today and got my first batch brewed and into the fermenter. It's definitely a learning experience and next time I know what to watch out for and do differently.
Made my local Brew Supply's "Colorado Blvd Pale Ale"
6lbs Pale LME
Steep grains for 30 min:
8oz Caramel 10L
8oz Caramel 40L
Boil 60 minutes 0.6oz Columbus
Boil 15 minutes 0.7oz Cascade
Add at 0 min 1.0oz Cascade
Original gravity should have been 1.045, I measured 1.040, but that may have been because I agitated it right before taking the reading.
Now the hard part: letting it just sit there and do its thing.
