Hey guys, I'm just posting to say that I'm about to brew my second batch this Wednesday, I have the day off to take care of some business and when I'm home it's brew-time!
Thanks to this site I think this brew will be way better than my first, even though my first brown ale is still a treat. I made a starter for this one and it's going good right now. I'm planning an ice bath to chill the wort this time, last time I added the hot wort to the water in the Ale Pail and proceeded to wait until 2:30 AM for pitching temps. I'm planning to rack this one to a secondary and probably follow the 1-2-3 method. Hopefully I can be patient this time since I'll have some other homebrews already ready to drink, the waiting just about killed me with the first batch!
I'm using a Brewer's Best Kit for this since that's about all my LHBS has on hand, I might have to go the online route for ordering individual supplies.
