Are there any easy 1 gallon batches I can do to get my feet wet?
Are there extract recipes on this site for 1 gallons?
I just don't wanna go out and get a mash tun if for some strange reason I wouldn't like brewing the nectar of the gods
What do you use to ferment 1 gal batches? I only have the larger 6.5 fermenter but would be cool to do a couple 1 gal batches while the "main" 5 gal is doing it's thing... Plus i have 3 growlers that I could bottle the 1 gal batches with -- seems like a great idea.
The one gallon carboys are really 1.2ish so I don't usually get blowoffs
i always do 1 gallon batches for test samples, like others said divide any recipes by 5 and make sure you do a blow off tube other wise youll end up with a mess. you can get about 8 bottles out of a 1 gallon batch which is perfect for samples and practice for hitting OG and kitchen brews.
The only real trouble i've had has been with Nottingham yeast. It was going craaazy.
