Hi everybody.
Ive been reading these forums for about 2 weeks now aswell as other sources from the internet and Ive finally taken the plunge and bought myself a starter kit from my local homebrew shop.
Im doing a wheat beer with aspirations of moving onto stronger lagers and beligum style beers.
I hope to become an active member on the site but am a total noob for now!
I suppose an opening question for me would be...............
Im doing this 1.8kg wheat beer extract kit and have followed the instructions to the letter except for not doing a full 23 ltrs and only doing 20 to keep the abv up near 5%. Now I understand the need for sanitisation/sterilization and have done with all my equipment but while im waiting for my "wort" to cool before I can add my yeast doesnt this leave my brew wide open to nastiness?
