Is there a rule of thumb for pitching yeast?
I'm looking to make an APA and want to use Irish Ale yeast from Wyeast Labs.
Should I pitch it in the high 60s? Low 70? Mid 70?
Any help would be great. Thanks new homebrewer :mug:
My recipe says
Boil size is 6.5 gal
Batch size is 5 gal
What exactly does this mean? I want to boil 6.5 gal of water + sugars?
Thanks from a newbie brewer! :mug:
Does anyone know if I should sanitize the store bought bottles before adding the water?
Or is bottled water okay to add right away...?
Sorry for the question....new brewer. :mug:
