Default Trying to brew again
Well its prolly been 4 years since i last done this.
Is this all i need right now to start off the brewing before the bottling?
I just cant seem to remember everything i did years ago. I remember how to mix it all together just dont know if i have everything to sart.
Thanks in advance.

Looks like you have all the "software" but you will need some "hardware" like a kettle (large pot), something to ferment in, an airlock, sanitizer, funnel is helpful, thermometer, hydrometer...there is probably something I'm missing, but a basic starter kit generally has everything you need to get started with basic extract recipes.

Well,you take an OG test before pitching the yeast. Then I wait 2 weeks to check for FG. If & when it's stable two days apart,give it another 3-7 days to clean up & settle out clear or slightly misty before priming & bottling.
