I am brewing my third batch right now since coming off a 5 year break from brewing.
My first attempt back was before I found HBT. I made a lot of stupid mistakes.
Since finding HBT, I have really learned a lot of great techniques.
1. I am now up to full 5 gallon boils.
2. Use my home made wort chiller.
3. Have fallen in love with star san, much better than iodophor.
4. Have a squirt bottle of star san around now.
5. Am using a styrofoam box w/ rubbermaid bucket and an ice bath to control fermentation temps.
6. I am letting beer ferment/condition a lot longer.
Plus I am learning more all the time. As soon as I get a second freezer I will get back to kegging.
Thanks Everyone!
