I had an insane amount of problems from the very start. The first one being that the stove could not get 3 gallons of water to boil which caused problems with the malt. I had to cover it to get it to boil then leave it 2/3 covered to keep it at a high temp. So I had malt sitting right at 209 degrees F for a long time. Then after this when I tried to chill it by putting it in the sink with ICE it still took hours to cool. And the final problem being that I forgot to put vodka in the air lock. Right now I am about 6 hours in and not sure what to do. Is it ok to go back and put some vodka(It is 6am at this point) in the airlock?
The only thing I manage to do right is keep all the temps right.
