Well I just got my first ingredients kit and its a true brew nut brown ale.
I am extremely nervous im going to do one little thing wrong and ruin the whole batch so I have a few questions for y'all
1. I have an old aluminum Turkey fryer pot that has been used to fry things and I have an older stainless steel pot that could use some cleaning which is better?
2. My propane burner is broke at the moment will stove top give me proper btus?
3.kit says to boil with 2.5 gallons isn't more better.
4. I have a 5 gallon and a 7 or so gallon carboy which is better? Do I want head space?
5. Ive read that the instructions for these things arent that good? Or do I follow to a t?
Im completely new to breweing beer ive made some wine but man I love a good beer. Any other helps hints along the way would 've great if u need more info from me just let me kno thanks
