Welcome aboard! I'm a noob as well. I recommend the threads on yeast starters and rehydrating dry yeast. You will gain confidence like I have to do this sooner than later. Even good threads that put to rest to worries of having to use secondary. FYI. I'm sticking to my buckets for a LONG time and will ferment worry free because of the info gathered on this site. Cheers.
