So i screwed up on my first partial mash... instead of adding 1 quart per 2lbs of grain as the sparge water like the instructions in the kits from Austin Homebrew Supply say, i did this for the strike water, added my IPA grains, and now it looks like oatmeal and is at 120 degrees heating up...

I plan on making a batch tonight, but will be away on vacation all of next week. Will the water stay in my airlock that whole time, or will it evaporate? Thanks for the help. Cheers!

Hi I'm new here and was wondering if this system was good to start. http://www.homebrewing.org/Homebrew-Kegging-System_p_69.html I don't need anything fancy, just a simple Cornelius kegging system because I am sick of bottling all the time. If it's a bad one, any suggestions?
