Thanks again for all the replies. Just found a few more posts on coopers, and it is indeed a no boil (mostly) kit. Plan as follows: 1. Warm up LME in a hot bath. 2. Boil 1 gallon of water, and dissolve DME. 3. Add sugar wort to 5 gallons of cool water in fermenter. 4. Adjust temperature as...

Thanks guys. Wyzazz, I actually read that thread right before I posted this, and just wanted to double check before I start this. Off to make some homebrew :D Edit - Mrbean just threw a monkey wrench into the whole thing.

I was getting all set up to brew some extract that has been laying around for the last few months, and now the directions are no where to be found :mad:. It's Coopers wheat beer, and is supposed to make 6 US gallons. If anybody could post up some decent directions, I'd really appreciate it...

Heat sticks certainly have their place, but it seems that for a lot of people, it might be easier and cheaper to simply purchase a propane tank and burner.

BrewBeemer, I don't think he meant shipped. Everything I've gotten on CL has always been local. That and I'm pretty sure you CAN'T shipped full cylinders without going through a lot of paperwork.

Must be nice, i've been looking here for a few weeks, and the only ones i can find are going for almost as much as new ones online!!

Thanks for the link man. I also found this I might be buying soon as I need a few other parts as well: http://www.rebelbrewer.com/shoppingcart/products/Complete-Homebrew-Kegging-Kit.html

Does anybody know where to get a co2 tank without paying an arm and a leg for it? My beer is almost ready to keg, but I still need a co2 tank.

Awesome, thanks man!

I recently brewed my first AG batch with a new AL turkey fryer pot. I noticed when brewing the pot darkened on the inside. Was I supposed to boil water in it to allow this to happen before I brewed my beer, or will the beer still be fine?

Willing to sell & ship?

One would already be gone if I lived close by.

Is it supposed to smell horribe while it's fermenting?

My specific gravity ended up being 1.039. Desired was supposed to be at 1.050. How good is that for my first time?

Thanks GMesick, once I move and get set up for doing AG on a regular basis, I'll be sure to get some software!

Thanks pivot, money isn't particularly an issue, since the programs are all in the 20s, just time at this point. But I'll definitely check it out, as I'm all about saving money where I can. Math and science have always been my strong point, Coincidence......I think not! :rockin:

Thanks guys, I've really learned a lot in the last few days. Going to order an AG kit from NortherBrewer, and they have a promash printout on their site. Now I just need to learn to decipher it lol.

Guess I should read more before I ask questions lol. They provide a promash printout on their website for their recipes.

I'm looking to do a cream ale AG kit in a couple of weeks, and it calls for three different mash temps. * 122° F for 20 minutes * 153° F for 60 minutes * 170° F for 10 minutes What's the best way to adjust the mash temps? I'm assuming by adding more hot water. Would one of...

Thanks guys. We going to try a cream ale from norther brewer, and keg it. Two first time projects for us, as we've never done AG or kegging. We'll see how it goes, but I'm confident that it'll turn out pretty well.
