    Pale Ale Malt vs Maris Otter in Milk Stout?

    Pitching my yeast too cold

    You can always take serial gravity readings to check. If you don't have a hydrometer, it's a good investment. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

    Is this just yeast being yeast, or do I kill it with fire...

    Even if you think it's something bad, the smart money is on not dumping the batch. Unless your cat horks a hairball in it, it's worth bottling/kegging it and seeing how it goes. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

    Added corn sugar too early in the boil. Problem?

    You're right - you might get some more caramelization but I doubt you'll notice much difference, especially for a big beer. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

    Good ideas for my second brew

    If you want to try a lighter ale that still has good flavor try the cream ale "cream of three crops" from the recipe database. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

    Slow starting ferment

    It's most likely fine. Check your gravity a week or so after you pitched the yeast. If it's lower, you're making beer. If it isn't, pitch more yeast. If you don't have a hydrometer, it's well worth the investment. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

    Mixing priming sugars

    You could always split the batch and prime half with dextrose alone and half with dextrose and rice solids and compare the two. Science! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

    Which Book to start with ' How to brew' or 'Joy of home brewing'

    They're both good. HTB is efficient and has excellent explanations if the science involved. JOH is much more winding and quirky, with a large focus on enjoying the hobby. If you're a math/science/engineering type I would go with HTB, and if you're an English major type I would go with JOH...

    Rogue kit question

    The hop schedule is more important than when you put the extract in. Either way, sounds frustrating. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew
