I was given a True Brew Brewing Kit for xmas. It's just your basic, run of the mill kit. I've added a thermometer, a 21 quart pot, and a carboy. I've made five batches thus far and I feel they've all come out pretty well.
However, if there was one piece of equipment that you picked up that greatly improved your brewing process, what would it be?
Right now my two big issues are temperature control during fermentation and my stove is barely big enough to boil 2.5 gallons of water. Oh, and I've been plagued with a high FG (even after I let it sit for a few more days). I think that's somehow connected to my temp control.
Another random thing is I'm going to be good effort forth to rack all of my brews to a secondary for 2-3 weeks to see if that helps with FG and clarity. Oh, and I'm trying to move on to mini mash.
With what I wrote above in mind, what do you think would be a good next step? I'd appreciate anyone's input.
