Hey everyone,
My dad and I are going to be brewing our first batch this weekend. We've taken a class at Triad Homebrew Supply in Greensboro, NC so we've got a decent handle on what we think we should be doing.
We're using a Truebrew kit with a glass carboy, and we've got an extra carboy for secondary fermentation as well. We've settled on a orange pale ale for our first recipe. I'll be taking lots pf pictures (im a photography major) all day so I'm sure ill be sharing some photos with y'all.
One question...the guy who instructed our class didnt mention anything about a yeast starter; would be a good idea to do this? We've got an extra fridge and a temperature controller on the way so fermentation will go smoothly.
Any other advice you all wish to share? (Apart from sanitize sanitize sanitize of course!)
Cheers
