Bottled today and was pretty happy with the way the beer looked and smelled. The last two bottles picked up some sediment, but the rest looked really clear when I held them up to the light. I'm pretty excited to try my beer in a couple of weeks!

Thanks. I've been lurking around the forums, and that's kind of what I gathered. But the book I was reading (that came with the kit my wife bought me for Christmas) said it would be ready to bottle in 10 days...

I'm doing the SN Pale Ale clone too. It's my first ever brew (got a homebrew set up from my wife for Christmas). Really looking forward to making lots and lots of beers.

My wife gave me a beginner's home brew setup for Christmas, and a friend gave me a lot of his old equipment/literature as well. Started last night, brewing a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone. I followed the recipe, and now I'm just waiting for my wort to start fermenting. Already loving this hobby!
