You clean??.....kidding.

Yep! Then it's the waiting game. Just put the plug in 5 gal. of tangerine wheat...we'll see...

This is only my 2nd batch. I'm still an extract guy. I certainly agree with the cleanup.

I get ya. I enjoy the process. But yeah, the finished process is the goal. :)

So, what is your favorite part of brew day? Just curious. For me, it's the smells. The grains being steeped. The sweet smell of the hops right out of the package. Never gets old.

Thanks for the tip!

I do love the taste of olives and pickles. Not so much in my beer though. :) It seems like a process of trial and error and "dialing it in".

Helpful. Thank you!

Good point. Thanks!

I'm going to have to take your word on these numbers. Haha! :)

Yeah. I may not sweat things too much until I make the jump to all grain. From what I'm gathering, having the "right" water is more important than when extract brewing.

Thanks! I need to pick up some bottle caps today anyway. I'm sure my local shop should have Campden tablets.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm not super up on water chemistry yet but learning...

Thanks! I know I'm probably overthinking things at this point. I already eager to dig deeper into things.

Thanks for the links!

Thanks very much for the info.! I'm a total noob, but I'm considering BIB soon.

Thanks JayJay. I live in the Pacific NW. I could throw a rock in any direction and hit a micro brewery. :) I actually wondered about what exactly the pros do to their water. Hmmm....

Extract. I'm in the middle of my first batch ever. I'm already 100% hooked. :)

Thanks! Yeah, I'm just brewing my first batch ever. I'm an over-thinker. Lol! I did strugle a bit with my temperatures for the first couple of days. At some point I'll invest in equipment to help control that.

Thanks for the feedback. I guess it's a lot of experimenting.
