From talking to the homebrew guys at Butler it seems like they are the red headed stepchildren of the company. I told them they really needed a better online presence and the guy said they didn't even have a sign advertising the homebrew supplies. It does seem a little small and cramped, but...

Any suggestions for what kind of primary I should go for? I am kind of considering just getting the Deluxe brewing kit from http://www.butlerwinery.com/homebrew.html Any thoughts on that stuff?

I am brand new to brewing and only have a Coopers kit so far. I am wanting to be able to have two brews working at once. I am wondering what would be the best way to go about this. Would it be better to get a secondary and transfer to that and start a new batch or just get a second fermenter...

They do have better bottles, I went in today to grab some StarSan and more yeast. So their equipment isn't that good?

Awesome, thanks a lot for the replies. I started to worry because I did a lot of dumb stuff when I was making this batch but I saw the sticky about how hard it is to mess up. The directions that come with it say 4-6 days in the fermenter. What is the benefit of going longer? And yea, really...

Running my first batch ever using a Coopers kit and I have a question. I have about an inch thick layer of stuff built up on the bottom of my fermenter at about 12 hours in at this point. Here's a picture of what I am talking about...
