Hernando said:Welcome. Drink beers while brewing, come here if you end up in trouble, relax and don't over think it. Brewing should be something enjoyable and not stressful. It helps if you take your time before brewing and make sure you have everything you need sanitized and ready to go. Your airlock is not a gauge for fermentation. Starring at your yeast will not make it ferment faster, trust me I know from experience. Cheers and good luck with your first batch.
Sanitize - seriously - get that all lined up before you open your first beer.
Lay everything out in advance.
