Did my first all grain brew today, and all seemed to be going well. Was cooling it off in the fermenter with a copper coil chiller hooked to the garden hose. Come out to check on it and my wort had gone from 5gals to 6gals.
Obviously need to address the leak, which is where the copper meets the plastic tubing, but what about the wort?
For now, it's in a sealed bucket. No yeast yet. Do I:
1) Toss in the yeast as is and see how it turns out?
2) Try and boil off a gallon?
3) Toss it?
4) Something I haven't thought of?
Any thoughts is appreciated.
I also just realized, it's a Wyyeast pack, that's been activated. Might need to get new yeast too.
