I'm actually really enjoying this brew tonight.
The second batch hasn't started yet. I need a kettle, just got a keg system. Will be a dubbel. I got some abbey style yeast.
Sweet dude thanks for the heads up.
I found that my shop sells used cornys. Sixty each but they r refurbished. Not very pretty but I'm very excited to get it goin. I'm sanitizing it right now.
I was thinking the ninja milling helps too!
One day I will make two exact batches of beer or even one ten g batch and split it into two carboys. Pitching a vial in one and a starter in another. Then compare.
But like I said I haven't even checked the first batch yet it could be garbage ;)...
First batch didn't need a starter and the owner of my brew shop freaked out when I said people r tellin me to use two vials or make a starter. He said no need if I'm only pitching in 5g.
Then again I didn't check the fg of the first batch yet.
