So I just realized that I forgot to rack to the secondary before adding the wood chips and bourbon to my whiskey barrel porter from AHS. I just added it to the primary. Will this be ok or is it an expensive lesson learned? :eek:

Just finished bottling a Weihenstephaner clone from AHS. Try using a piece of paper towel to soak up that foam so you can get a better reading on your hydrometer. Congrats on your first batch it looks great!

Sorry I meant Dale's Pale Ale :drunk:

I did the Midwest Liberty Cream Ale Kit and added 1lb of local honey with 5min left in the boil. It tastes amazing, but Im not sure I can taste the honey. It did bump the ABV nearly 1%:D

Dave's Pale Ale from Oskar Blues is a good intro to IPA's

I think its a decent Hefe, but as far as SN goes Torpedo is my favorite.

Just finished my 2nd brew, a midwest irish red. All went well and was able to multi-task a little and do some grilling in the process. This forum has been such a plethora of great info and thanks to all. I'm so addicted to homebrewing now that I spend several hrs a day researching and planning...

When did you place your order nvious23? I as well opted for the Irish Red

I'm no expert, but I would say your close enough. I've heard alot of people on here say that its very difficult to get an OG when brewing extracts.

I brewed the BB dunkelweizen on sat. I decided after much research not to use the danstar munich dry yeast it came with and opted for WPL300. It's been five days and the banana smell coming from the airlock is awesome.

Here is my link guys! A 2nd setup never hurts or even a 3rd. I will take mine down if I get my three. https://www.livingsocial.com/deals/588148?ref=share-link-post&rpi=102899842&rui=29196122
