Hey everyone, Chris here. I bought my first kit on Friday and did my first brew Saturday. I did a White Mountin Wit which is made by my local home brew store. Everything is going great so far. The instructions said that my first gravity reading should be 1.046 and my actual reading was 1.040. I dont know if the .006 difference makes a big difference, but I am pretty happy that I got it that close my first try.
I pitched my yeast 14 hours ago and there is A LOT of fermentation going on in there which I am super stoked about.
I think the hardest part so far is the waiting! About 5 days after I put my wort into the secondary fermentor, I am going to start a new batch. I live in an apartment right now, but I am purchasing a home in 4 months so I look forward to making half my garage into an elaborate home brew setup.
Does anyone recommends a home brew book?
