I'm in Cimarron..all the way out west...I think I'm the only one in SW Kansas that does homebrew!!!

Ok.. will try that next time...thanks for the info.

I put 1/2 cup pf DME with 1 quart of water...boil about 30 minutes... cool to 75 degrees and then pitch yeast...put an airlock on it and use it a couple days later.

I have made starters before but with dry yeast...didnt seem to ferment faster or better than any other method..liquid or dry...so I quit making starters.

OK...learn something new...This was just a simple wheat beer and with the other 30 some beers I've done in the past I always have action within 24 hours... I let this go 36 with nothing happening so if I overpitched...it wont be as tasty but still beer!!

Why do we have to boil the wort for one hour?? I know hop utilization and all but.....any other reason??

Last time...bump
