Has anyone here brewed this Whisky Stout? If so, what did you think?

It is my first time bottling and I plan on filling all the bottles and then cap them. Is this ok or do I need to fill then cap? I was going to place a cap on the bottle after i fill it to keep anything from getting in the bottle. I guess my real question is.. is there a time limit once the...

My first batch of beer, I used only a Primary Fermenter. In the brew store that I go to, all their recipes use 2nd Fermenting. Can I continue to make good beer without using a 2nd Fermenter or is the quality that much better with it? Thanks

I am very new to brewing. Just finished my first brew of Whisky Stout. What's the best way to clean/and or sanitize your equipment? I've heard you don't want to use soap! Also, I've heard that you only "clean" when the equipment is visibly soiled! So does that mean just rinse everything...

My kit didn't come with an Auto-siphon and it suggested that I put water in the tube to get it going. I don't mind doing this from the boiling pot to the Ferm bucket b/c I have to add 2.5 gal anyways, but my questions is will the little amount of water that I use to siphon screw up the beer...
