Just though I would start a post up while I am brewing my first batch. I just experienced my first boil over, how exciting! besides that everything else has gone pretty smooth. I think I got the stove dialed in now. 50 minutes to go...
Alright, well I got through my brewing session on Saturday without making too much of a mess... ok I lied i made a big mess, but I cleaned it all up! I did learn several things though and think that I can do my next batch without making a mess all over the stove and kitchen floor.
My brew is sitting in a closet in my basement. The temp down there stays around 64-65 all day. I checked it this morning and the airlock was giving a bubble about once every 4 seconds, does that sound right? All day yesterday when I would check it, there was no activity, so I got very excited this morning when I saw the airlock going!
