I began my career brewing career in the winter of my senior year in highschool (I wasn't even legally allowed to vote let alone drink yet). My parents have been very supportive from the beginning since they saw the amount of work it took to create beer and the obvious educational benefits of...

Im planning on adding 5 tbls of coffee grounds to my wort at the last minute. Could i just add them directly to the wort, whirlpool then siphon through a strainer or will i need to use a hop bag or some other kind of retainer?

In your experience what beer style was ready the fastest. I don't bottle so any keggers out there your opinion will be highly valued
