Ive done both with no difference. Rehydrated and just sprinkled onto wort.

Man, I gotta pick this up after reading this thread. All I found at walmart were 12 packs, and I didnt want to commit to 12 beers I might not like. Might have to go for it though! EDIT: Just picked up a sixer of this. Gonna crack a few open and do a review for this thread with pics later tonight.

Nice. Alone time is great! Might want to just kick back and have a nap your first day alone :D

Wow, great deal! Gotta be patient to find the deals I see a lot of OK deals on craigslist, looking for a sweet deal! Awesome find man :mug:

Temperature control is at its most critical during the first 5 or so days of fermentation. Letting the temps rise a little after the first week probably wont hurt much, but I would avoid it if possible. I would not let if get above 70 degrees. Remember that stable temps within the yeast range...

Most people put their primary in a cooler with frozen bottles of water to keep it cool, that seems like the easiest. Maybe you can go buy one of those big coolers, or perhaps a styrofoam one at a gas station for a few bucks that would work better. Some other things ive heard of people doing...

Then you'll have to burn some sage when you bottle :D

Glad to share! I like to let it play new music for me while brewing/kicking back with a home brew. Its nice to discover new music you like, since it selects it based on your certain type of sound your looking for.

You can thumb up or down a song to keep it on your station, a great way to find new...

Thanks for all the advice guys. When I get to my LHBS monday I will get some of the hops suggested for my next pale ale, as well as try the brews mentioned. Thanks! :mug:

Awesome, thanks for all the help.:mug: All thids tsalk about hops makes me want to buy a bunch of hops, and make tea out of them to see what everything tastes like. I guess that would be practical? Im not sure bvut thanks for sall the helkp
