So i started my first brew on this past sunday, and im starting to think that i may have screwed some things up.
i have a 3 gallon kit.
What i did... i filled my carboy up with water and poured it into my brew kettle to use for adding my steeped grain, and for boiling my wort. the instructions didnt say how much water i initially needed to start with in the pot. it is fermenting now in my primary bucket before i transfer it to my secondary carboy. i feel like i may have to much liquid for the carboy now.
my first question is, did i add to much water? and if so, how much water should i start with? since adding the steeped grain fills it up as well. as well as i filled the primary wort bucket up with water to the fill line, which seems way bigger than the carboy.
if anyone can help me that would be awesome.
thanks,
chris
