I have brewed 4 batches. All 4 used specialty grains. 3 were from extract the 4th came from a homebrew contest. I started with 6 gallons of wort that came from pilsner malt.
I have a 5 gallon beverage cooler with a SS braid. I am going to batch sparge.
The first AG beer I make is going to be a Wit. My wife loves WIT beer and I wanted to do a beer that she was heavily involved in making.
I also have an aventinus clone that I am also going to brew. This is a beer a friend challenged me to make. I am not a big fan of aventinus but I will drink it. I am mostly turned off by the $4 for a 12oz price tag. I am sure to thoroughly enjoy aventinus homebrew. He is going to help me on that brew day also.
So with my first two AG batches I will have a willing brew helper. All the other batches were done solo.
:rockin: Now that that's out of the way.
Any advice??
Also I purchase bottled water since my water is POOL FLAVORED. How many gallons should I have on hand??? I am thinking 7 gallons.
