I bought a one gallon kit from Brooklyn Brew shop. Followed instructions to the teet. Ive been thinking about really getting into this as a new hobby....a few questions..
I understand checking specific gravity is the only way to ensure fermentation is taking place. Unfortunately I didnt have a hydrometer to measure OG. I plan on purchasing one tomorrow (7/6/12) Should I just play this batch out without one? Continue to follow instructions and enjoy? Instructions don't mention anything about testing SG.
I believe OG can be given from creator of recipe but I havent been able to find it. How accurate is original gravity from one brewer to the next using same kit? What would change OG?
Thanks in advance.
