Thanks Anthrobe - hopefully it will shoot out my nose...

Now time to surf these boards for suggestions for the next batch...

I think you're fine, but the hose you have running out for a blow-off is a bit small. Where'd you get that? If you have hops floating around in there, you might get a clog. Just something to think about. 'Cause if it clogs--

Thanks Anthrobe, rewster451 and anyone I missed.

I bottled it on Sunday...a quick sample seemed a bit bland, but inoffensive. I wonder if a lot of the hops ended up 'unsteeped?'. Can't wait to try it.

rewster - I see you have an Irish Red queued up. I'd like to brew one for my wife's grandparents on St Patty's day coming up. I know I have the irish stout, but that is way to dark for their side of the family. Is there a recipe/kit suitable for n00bs that you are willing to share? I'll start another thread if appropriate.

Baby due in 17 days :-)

Cheers!
