welcome to the forum, dwaynebutcher
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."

Welcome to the forum. Stay away from the twins.

Ok, just one of them - but you have to figure put which one.

I happen to see you said you can't wait to taste your first batch in two weeks.

The instructions on some kits say that but almost all of us found that two weeks wasn't long enough for the beer to be ready.

Most of us will suggest you wait at least three weeks before chilling and to chill only one or two at a time so you can experience the effects conditioning has on flavor and body.
