ok, so i bought a mr beer, i know my bad, a few weeks ago and i just bottled my inaugural batch. and i have an oatmeal stout mix i am doing tomorrow. i already have my yeast incubating. the yeast is for a 5 gallon batch of beer so will adding it to a 2 gallon batch do anything bad to the beer? my next question is about spices and extra sugars. when do you introduce something like molasses? when you boil the wort, after the wort is boiled or right into the fermenter? How about spices like cinnamon? should that go in a spice bag or right into the wort without the bag? and at what point should it be introduced? thanks you guys, i will have another post in the intro section when i get back from publix.
