I'm making my first batch as well. This probably explains why I was 5 points off on mine too. I think next batch i will do a full boil since i have a large enough kettle.

Awesome...you answered a couple more of my questions too.

What's the best way to rack to a keg? Should I just purge the keg with beergas first then just siphon?

Thanks for the comments. I'm planning on cold crashing it tomorrow so seems it wouldn't be a good idea (or even necessary) to prime. Thanks.

I'm about to rack my first batch. Everything that I have read tells me I should prime the batch when kegging but with less priming sugar than if bottling. But my friend says I don't need to prime since I'm going to have gas hooked up to it. Any suggestions?

Cool...that helps

Any suggestions? Pros/cons... I'm brewing my first batch with liquid Wyeast 1056 American Ale. Noticed in transit it had been activated. Is there benefits to using liquid over dry?
