Just brewed my second extract batch. Started out with Smooth Nut Brown kit from Midwest http://www.midwestsupplies.com/smooth-nut-brown.html
One thing I changed, other than upgrading the yeast, is to add honey to the wort. I have a 5 gallon pot to boil the wort, so I need to add water to the wort when it goes to primary. I boiled about a gallon of water, and right after I turned off the heat I added about a cup of fresh pure honey.
Anyone have any thoughts on this? I am open to critique and suggestions.
Hoping to increase the alcohol a little bit, and add some sweetness to the beer.
