I just recieved the AHB Hefe Partial Mash kit. In the initial shippment they sent the Extract grail bill; I have since recieved the correct grains. My question is do I use the extra grain (1/2lb base, 1/2lb specialty)? And if I do should I omit some of the LME? I'm leaning towards using it...

We are currently 30 minutes into the 60 minute boil. Everything is going great thus far!! Thanks for the assistance. Wish I did not have to work later or I would be enjoying a hb right now...

Great, thats kind of what I was thinking but wanted to ask "those in the know" just to be safe. Thanks!!

I successfully made my first starter about 36 hours ago and had planned on brewing later today. However the weather has gone south (go figure I live in Wisconsin) and I am rethinking my plan. Do I need to worry if I back off brew day until tomorrow??

Welcome from Fond du Lac!

I am also very new in the hombrewing process. I have my first batch in secondary; MS Fat Tire Clone. And will be brewing batch number two very soon;AHB Wit Beer. I skipped the bottling step and went right to purchasing kegging equiptment. I really did not want to mess with bottling. Thanks to...
