I brewed my first batch last night and all I can say is I'm hook on Home Brewing. I brewed a Brewer's Best Dunkelweizen and decided after much research to make a couple changes to the recipe. First off instead of steeping the 1lb specialty grains (Chocolate, Munich) in 2.5 gals at 155-160 for 20min. I opted to do a mini mash in a separate pot with 2qts at 155 for 20min. I also chose not to use the Danstar Munich dry yeast that came with the kit and opted for WLP300 to get more of the banana and clove profile. Other than that I followed the recipe and everything went smooth. Its currently fermenting pretty vigorously in my guest bath tub at 72 degrees. This forum has been awesome and I have learned quite a bit in a short time.
