This is my first attempt at this. I'm brewing from a kit, an IPA from True Brew. Here's what I've screwed up so far.
1. I covered the pot during the boil. I don't remember reading anything about that in The Joy of Home Brewing but I did read that it's bad at howtobrew.com(after the fact, of course).
2. I added the first hops BEFORE the hot break. The kit instructions just said to add the LME and the Chinook pellets at the same time.
Will my brew be ok?
