I did plan on making a immersion wort chiller, it slipped my mind thank you. I usually do 5 gallon batches and was wondering if it is possible to make to big of a starter. I was going to buy a stir plate with a 2L flask. Would this be to big or can I still do smaller starters in a 2L flask?

Thanks everyone. I think I am going to get a new boiling pot, a chest freezer, found a few free/cheap ones on craigslist, and a stir plate. I may also build a mash tun but idk yet.

I have an Rodi filter from my aquarium. Should I use it to make water for beer? It would be pure water then I could add anything I needed back in. Would this be more work then it is worth.

It was A kit I bought from a site, I did not create it myself but it sounded interesting and fun to brew. I just hope it comes out good. I was thinking I would use a darker roast for the coffee, I find that the darker roasts of coffee are less acidice, would this help the beer? Looks like I...
