Hey,
Just started the boil, a couple questions if anyone's out there:
1)Do I add aroma hops at 60 min, or a few minutes before. Basically, when during the 60 minute do I add them and how long should I let them boil before I take it all out to cool?
2)What does "pitching yeast" mean? My directions say to add the wort, then fill up the fermenter with filtered water to get the 5 gallons, then "pitch yeast". I have the yeast aerating right now. Do I just pour the yeast in then seal the glass fermenter with the cap and airlock?
