Im really new to home brewing and have currently got my second batch a coopers Mexican cerveza conditioning in a keg. (Fingers crossed it comes out ok) my first attempt was a youngs larger kit and it came out ok but I ended up pouring most away as it just wasn't that enjoyable.
Im planning to do an IPA next and was hoping someone could recommend a good kit to use and advise me on how to get the most out of it.
My usual method is to boil 4 pints of water and mix in the brewers sugar and can contents transfer that into a FV then top up with water to 23ltrs aiming for it to be about 20ºc add yeast the seal on lid with air lock attached and place in a water bath temp controlled by a fish tank heater until fermenting is complete. I would then siphon off into a keg with priming sugar and leave warm for 3 days then cool for a couple of weeks to a month befpre drinking. (I sterilize everything) .
Is this the best way to go about brewing from kit or can you advise me how to get better results?
Thanks in advance
