First Batch of American Ale is finished and pretty good. Color is a nice Carmel with just the right bitterness and very clear. I would add a little more finishing hops if I were to do the same again. Thanks to everyone who helped with advice. Just bottled my second batch a very nice Simco IPA.

Thanks for the link. Some great information here. After reading I am really happy choosing this yeast. Beginners Luck I guess.

Thanks Marko, I was happy to see the happy bubbles of fermentation this morning. Temp holding at 67-68. Should I allow the temp to fall closer to 60 now that it's working? Don't want any off taste due to higher than necessary temps.

Just cooked up my first try at beer making yesterday. I am making an American Ale in the nature of a Pale Ale. I used White Labs liquid English Ale yeast. The directions said to keep temperature at 70 until fermentation begins. All I can manage is 66, is there going to be a problem with this...
