    Is this bad??

    I did my first all grain batch today (made a blonde ale) and I have never had a wort be so clear. The color looks like it is the right SRM but does not have the hazy prefermented look to it that my other brews have had. Is this bad???

    Maybe this is a Dumb ?

    What is the difference between rahr 2-row and briess 2-row? Are they the same as American 2-row? Is there a book that I could read to better familiarize myself with the different types of grains?

    First batch taste horrible!!!

    The was a change in temperature during primary fermentation from 62 to 75 and i believe it ruined my beer. After 3 weeks in the secondary and 2 weeks in the bottles it taste like crap and smells like some sort of chemical. Is it worth waiting to see if it cleans up or should i just dump it?
