First brew
Posted: Mon Feb 10, 2014 8:37 pm
Finally finished my first brew.
Five weeks ago this past Sat. put a Brewers Best Weizenbeir kitin the fermenter. I believe I followed the instructions almost perfectly, although I did get it a little too cold the first night and pitched the yeast slightly too hot.
Two weeks ago bottled it up into 50 12oz. bottles.
Today me, my dad and uncle cracked open three good cold ones.
Success, they thought it was great. It seemed to me a little twangy but after work it was just what I wanted.
Now to start my next brew this weekend, an American Cream Ale kit. If that works my next will be a mild ale extract recipe from scratch.
Good brewing everyone.
