I bought a kit with a 5 gal carboy and i'm about ready to start. I think. I guess I need to get my questons out of the way.
First, the book that comes with it talks about adding the yeast with a bucket setup and it talks about sprinkling the yeast on top and gently stirring it in. How do you do that with a carboy?
then there is the bottling time question. According to the book (sometimes they aren't that helpful) you should wait approx 7 days. is that from the brewing date or when the fermenting is done??
I'm really looking forward to this experience, I won't be able to do the brew until after Christmas but I like to get everthing straight in my head.
thanks for the help!
