Immediately expanded from just the kit to a total of 2 plastic pail fermentors and 2 carboys, and a wort chiller. After an extract, a partial grain kit and a cider I went AG.

    There is another thread, with the same recipe in it, and recently a large fight occurred about
    giving credit to the original poster of the recipe. What our buddy Manco here isn't realizing

    I would keep it. Throw it in a glass Carboy and forget about it for a year. Then keg and share
    with friends or your local homebrew club. Or bottle and send off to a competition. After 4

    For those who are following, I just kegged my second Hefe done with the bohemian malts and
    although I got sulfur in both, it aged out with a little warm rest time after fermentation and
    then a lager p...
