My closest LHBS happens to be just across the border in Canada. In November I went there to look around. I saw they had a large quantity of the Fests Brew "kits". I bought a wheat "kit" and brought it home. I had purchased an equipment kit from Midwest Supplies a couple weeks before. I poured the wort in a 6.5 gallon bucket and pitched the yeast. I don't have a secondary big enough for 6 gallons. So after two weeks my impatience got the best of me and I bottled it. Two weeks after that I drank my first one. It was good. Not just drinkable but GOOD.
Long story short, Last week I bought another wheat "kit" and an IPA and a red ale. All Festa Brew. I don't know much but I do know not to trust the included instructions. I've read all the Festa Brew threads here and am curious to know how long people have fermented the different Festa Brew "kits" or what recommendations others have for me. I appreciate all input.
By the way, I fully plan on doing extract kits but time and money lately are hard to find together. Thanks in advance for all input.
