Success

So after about three mr beer batches,just the basic recipes with mediocre results I decided to try five gallon extract with steeping grains,Hanks Hefeweizen from midwest and am quite impressed with the results and they've only been in the bottle a week-thanks to everyone for the advice I have gathered from here!

Congrats! Now you can start the next batch while you ar drinking this one.

Yup, Grats on the new brew.... time to get another goin... that first 5 gallons goes quicker than you'd think!

Congrats! Since my first 1 gallon batch of stout had a nice wet cardboard flavor due to my horrible siphon/bottling technique I have yet to experience the joy of popping open a bottle that I made and tasting something on par with the craft brews. I have a pale ale that needs another couple weeks in the bottle, but I have a good feeling about it. I have a hefe in primary that is bubbling away... I think I'm going to get carried away with this hobby.

Awesome! Congratulations. I can't wait for a successful batch.
