    Small Batch Kettle Size

    Thanks for all of your suggestions. Yeah, it's not a 5 gal batch. That would be insane to try doing a 5 gal batch in a 5 gal kettle. It's a 3 gal batch in a 5 gal kettle. Maybe I'll just split the batch or suck it up and upgrade. I just didn't want to have to go outside.

    Hi everybody

    Hi, my name's Monkey. Just started brewing 2 months ago. First batch was a standard nut brown, which came out pretty good. Took me a long time to decide to start brewing but not that I have, I just want to make more and more. I look forward to learning more and hopefully be able to...
