    Steeping grain

    When steeping grain how much water should be used? I have heard use the same amount of water that you are going to boil and I have heard to use 1 gal of water for every 1 pound of grain.

    Power punch 22

    what type of yeast

    I'm planning my second brew. This is going to be an aged Holiday brew. Looking at a OG 1.066. What type of yeast should I get ? I used Wyeast Activator for my first and it worked great.
