I first of all had hop pellets and did not have a hop bag so I had to just put them in the beer without the hop bag. Is this going to be a problem? or can I strain them before I carbonize it? Second I put my wort chiller in 15 min before the end of the boil and when I turned on the hose the hose leaked and probably put about a quarter to half a gallon of water in my kettle with the wort. Is that going to be a problem? Third this was suppose to be a super light beer even when putting it in promash I put my ingredients in and it is suppose to be super light. It is in my glass fermenter and it is super super dark. I had 11.5 pounds of grain and I put 3.6 gallons of water in my mash tun with the grain, vorlaughed (not sure how to spell) it and then drained the rest into my boil kettle then took another 3 gallons of water at 170 degrees drained it slowly in the mash tun and at the same time it drained in my boil kettle. Was this the right thing to do?
