Hi. My only brewing experience was helping me brother brew his first batch last spring. He's since done about four different batches and they've all turned out great. Now, I'm ready to go out on my own. Got a brew pot for Christmas, but have one question.
I was reading some info about brewing on the web and some people were calling for starting your yeast before hand (especially liquid yeast), but I don't remember doing that with my brothers batch. It was dry yeast but we just put it in the fermenter, shut the top and let nature take it's course. Do I really NEED to start it?
