Used the liquid white lab yeast as well. Brought it to room temps, popped it in and gave it a good shake

So here is is after a week. You can see from the sides how much it fermented. Looking good ....must be patient. Must me patient. Lol

It's an ok system. I have it and have played a few games but my kids really like it and that's that matters. I plan on grabbing the new 360 this holiday season if it comes out

Want a hangover cure? Lots and lots of water

So tomorrow night is the first week in the primary. The bubbling has slowed to almost a stop. Should I check the gravity tomorrow or just wait another week? I'm trying to be patient but want another batch going soon. Lol

Seriously. Just drop 50.00 on a wort chiller and be done. I found one on Craigslist for 25. Works great

It's just an Irish stout kit I got from a lHBS. I was thinking in the primary til the 14th which is 3 weeks then bottling and trying my first one 2 weeks later on my birthday the 30th of April

So Sunday will be 1 week in the fermenting stage. Take most people's advice here I thought I would let it sit 2 - 3 weeks then bottle. Should I let is sit a minimum of 2-3 weeks in bottle as well?

Sounds pretty tasty. You'll have to let us know how it is

I think you meant GO BRAVES!!

I'm ready to start brewing again and see how the next one goes

Ok so I just started my first batch (Irish Stout) in 2 years so I mine as well call it my first batch. Its a kit I picked up from a LHBS. If this all goes well and the taste is good I plan on trying the White house honey Ale or something that is a little more advanced...extra hops maybe a second...

So it's been less than 24hrs and I already have fermenting going. Pretty excited

So it's been in the closet less than 9 hours so I'm not even concerned at this point. The temp on my bucket is showing 63-65. It's 21 outside right now and I know it will warm up here as it will outside (high 50's). Should I just let it be or should I wrap it in a towel or something

Looks like its on target. You rock man. Thanks for al the info.

I brewed an Irish stout kit from a lhbs here in town

Thank you Is 10.50 a decent gravity? Is it too high or too low? Right now it shows an abv of 5.6% I believe. Will that number raise or lower during fermentation ?

On my hydrometer is right at the 50. So is that 1.050?

So I got done with the boil and cool down. I tested the gravity before pitching the yeast and got 10.20? Is that right? Only measure about 2.6% Abv. Pithed the yeast about 65% shook up threw my airlock on and now in a dark closet

Yea. Lets hope it turns out alright. Just something to remember next time i brew...in a few weeks
