So I made my first batch last night without a kit. I made dogfish head 60 min IPA. Everything seems to have gone smoothly. Made the wort, no issues. Chilled it down, added the yeast and got it into the carboy without pretty smoothly. This morning I wake up to find my airlock bubbling and visible signs of fermentation.
It almost seems like things went to smoothly and I have been reading posts about explosions and stuff ending up on the ceiling. Do I need to be concerned about this? Right now it is in the front closet of my apartment and I do not want to find my coats covered in beer.
Also, this recipe calls for me to dry hop, does anyone have any advice of when and how I should do this?
Thanks in advance.
