homebrewing and general beer chat

[Scapegoat]

I've tried before and was too lazy about it.

I just picked up a home brew kit from a real home brewers store as well as a the ingredient to make a wheat beer similar to hoegardden.

Right now I've got the yeast doing its thing in the little baggy, and I should be ready to get going on making the wort in about an hour and a half.

2-3 weeks for fermentation in the bucket, then another 2-3 in the bottles... so 2 months from now I'll have my own booze

I think once I get this batch into the bottles I'm going to pick up another case of empty bottles and get to work on an ale or stout. I may actually inquire about what it takes to make something like gulden drak
