So my 1st brew is 2 weeks in the primary and it was a "Irish Red kit" and everything looks good so far. I have been planning my 2nd brew for about 10 days now and here is what I have come up with. Thoughts, comments, answers appreciated.
I bought ingredients from my LHBS to make a close to, Gunniess Clone. I have a 5G glass carboy and a few 1G wine jugs. I want to do 3-4G of the original dry stout and then experiment with 1 or 2 gallon batches with maybe adding chocolate and/or fruit.
How do I go about pitching same packet of dry yeast into 2-3 different fermenters? How do I mix well enough so each vessel has all the ingredients in it besides one being top off water? Is this too complex for a Noob?
Would a better solution be to do all primary in a 6.5 just and then transfer to the 3 separate vessels?
