Would you add the wood during the first fermentation or wait till the secondary to add it??

So two days ago i brewed a batch of beer and i checked on it and there's no krasen on top. Can this be normal safale us-05

Ok I'm gonna go with jakenbacon and do an arrogant bastard

I have some chinook hops that need to be used but I don't know what kind of beer to brew with them any suggestions??

I'm a crew trainer a Mc Donalds in the morning and a Pizza hut delivery driver at night,heavy metal bassist in between...

What music do you listen to when brewing if you listen to anything at all any specific genre or band you listen to while brewing? If so list your brew day playlist

I bought a keg online for $30

Kool thanks for the advice guys

Ok..this is my first time bottling so I want to to this right...what are the ideal conditions for carbing and conditioning?

I heard from a website that you can condition the bottles in the fridge...does this work?

I did add it cold powder form but I think I mixed it well cause I did shake the carboy before adding the yeast

Well damn... does that mean this batch is a waste??

I accidentally forgot add the dextrose to the boil so I added it as I was putting the wort into the carboy while I pitched the yeast is that going to affect anything drastic??

Thanks to everyone for providing such useful info I understand more about the nature of yeast and how it works in beer
