Ok... I decided I am going to do my extract boiling the "Texas Two Step method", but instead of doing on 2 different brew days I am going to do them one after another. So my questions are:
1. Once I am finished boiling and cooling the first 1/2 batch and I rack to my Primary, can I just put a solid bung in the carboy till I am finished with the second 1/2. Then add the cooled wort to the first batch and pitch the yeast?
2. Will the first batch be ok for 1.5 to 2 hours till I add the second batch & yeast?
3. Should I shake the carboy to mix the 2 batches together before adding the yeast?
Thanks again for all the great advice.
