You may already know, I got my beer kit and beer ingredients today. I have a couple quick questions.
What is the proper way to take a hydrometer reading?
When boiling the wort do I wait for the hotbreak before I start timing my boil and adding hops? For example, Boil until hotbreak and then wait 15 minutes for first hop addition and so on.
Do I need to boil the topoff water for the wort? How long?
Thanks.
